Summary

Happy Wednesday, friends! I have another special solo episode for you guys! Today I’m touching on some hard topics, but not without a healthy dose of lighthearted fun. Listen along as I share my personal experience with anxiety and the mixed feelings I had about getting back on medication. You might even hear me shed a tear or two…BUT, don’t fret! I’m still answering a couple of your questions — specifically on whether or not to bail because of the lack of diversity in a workplace environment or to stay and push for diversity, how to navigate the online dating scene as well as the pros and cons of dating apps, and how to keep past relationship trauma at bay. I hope you’ll join me!
