The following podcast is a dear media production.

Hi friends and welcome to the papaya podcast.

I'm your hostess, Trin Hermostis, Sarah Nicole.

And each week I'm going to be dishing out some sweetness mixed in with some seeds of wisdom or something like that.

Papaya podcast actually had its top downloads last month. And that's really cool because

four years into a podcast is sort of that moment of truth, clarity, whatever you want to say.

it's growing and that we had our best downloads ever four years in is truly, it just, I don't know,

the other day, it's so hard for me because I find

my voice so annoying. So when you intentionally listen and we get to have these incredible

conversations to think about the things that we've talked about and shared over the years,

I don't know. It just, it's a very, very meaningful thing to hear that and to know that.

So thank you so much.

one. And today's conversation, I'm going to bring us down into something

that is really remarkable to talk about, and that's owning our struggles. Meena B is a writer,
