Welcome to Let's Talk About It. I am Taylor and I'm joined by my wonderful friend, Kit

Bender. But we are going to do this podcast called Let's Talk About It. And what are we

going to be talking about? I think a little bit of everything, but specifically things

that you have, at least education and a certain perspective and expertise on. What are

those things? For those of you that don't know me, I was on the Bachelor on Nick Vile's

season and then was on Bachelor in Paradise where I am to engage to Derek Payt. And yeah,

my background before going on the show was, I got my bachelor's in psychology and then

I got my master's in clinical mental health counseling. So part of the podcast is going

to be, let's talk about some of these uncomfortable topics like mental health and just things

that people usually don't really want to talk about. We're going to create this safe

space for us to be vulnerable and open and share some of these things.

When did you decide, hey, I think I should make a podcast. Did you have a moment of

epiphany? Well, you and I have been friends for almost two years. And before I ever went

on the show, I remember you and I would like sit at coffee shops and we'd hang out for

like hours and we'd have these really long, deep conversations that we'd find ourselves

in and then we'd be like, wait, whoa, you were there. And then after a while, we were

kind of like, maybe we should like do a podcast, you know, like we should share these thoughts

to other people, like, and join, like bring other people in on these conversations that

we're having. Right. There was a time when you were in California, you were on at a beach

house. And you were in the middle of, I forget, I think it was in between the bachelor

and bachelor paradise. And I was home in Seattle. And we talked for like two hours on the

phone and like really like went and analyzed each other in a lot of ways. Yes, we did.
