Changing my relationship with alcohol with Dr. Jessica Leon
Something you may not know about me is that I've been alcohol-free for the past three months. It hasn't been easy. Basically, I started paying attention to my body and how I felt the days after I drank -- anxious, sad and just no energy. I've taken breaks before but I would always come back to drinking. So to better understand my relationship with alcohol, I brought on one of the smartest people I know onto the pod, Dr. Jessica Leon.Some of the things we get into here:
A judgment-free conversation about (legal) drinking
How exactly alcohol became so unavoidable
How binge drinking steals our peace...and how it also steals our sleep! And our money :,)
What exactly alcohol does to our bodies
And, Dr. Jessica provides a checklist for questions we can ask ourselves to see if we're ready to change our relationship to alcohol

It's ok to talk about trauma with Charlie Webster
There are things I hate to talk about. Things that I'd literally rather do anything else in the world than unpack. But I've learned the hard way that if I don't talk about the hard things, the challenges I've faced, I stay stuck. Charlie Webster is an author, podcast host and superstar journalist, and she says not only is it ok to talk about those hard things, but you have to! Some things we'll talk about this week:
How to make space to process your trauma
How your critical voice is a roadmap to the things keeping you stuck
Her upbringing, which was difficult but made her the woman she is today and why she shares her story
And, all of the other surprising things she's done with her platform

Your questions, my advice
I asked for your questions and they have been piling up in my DMs. Today is the day we start to dig in and answer them together!

How to deal with friendship jealousy (of all kinds)
Making friends as an introvert with social anxiety
Tips on relationships, like moving from a crush to a LTR or knowing what your boundaries are and sticking to them
And, advice for both freshman and seniors!
