We all, with zero exceptions, feel pressure. Whether that pressure is from friends who constantly need a shoulder to cry on, or from a new job where you desperately want to impress your boss, it's an absolute must that we find ways to mitigate that pressure and construct clear boundaries. It doesn't matter if it's regarding a roommate or your boss Carol, there are times when a simple "No" is not just a word, but a sentence.

When it comes to so many situations in life, it is human nature to let that little voice inside you fill your brain with self-doubt. It could be a trip halfway around the world for college, or the simple act of encountering growing pains from the evolution of a long-term relationship. In most cases, it takes boldness and confidence to not just face the challenge head-on, but to simply admit that it's a challenge in the first place. That, dear listeners, is the bold step one must take.

This week, we tackle lies, friends, COVID, and dating. (not necessarily in that order) From an awkward situation in a fading friendship to an abrupt end to a relationship, sometimes lies can hurt just as much as the truth.

When it comes to some people's relationships, occasionally things come easy. For the other 99.9% of us, however, things can get a tad complex. This week, we cover two stories that while very different, both lead to the same inevitable place: relationships are friggin' hard. It's hard to find them, it's hard to maintain them, and it's hard to get over them. Hopefully, this episode will make those endeavors just a wee bit easier.

While we all take a moment to fondly remember the 2021 edition of our October Series, we are officially back to our regular stories and we couldn't be more excited! On today's episode, our first story is about overcoming loss and reluctantly settling into a "new normal", while the second story is about celebrating oneself and making efficient use of that much-maligned "me time" between dating spurts. In both, we see that while change is oftentimes dark and unsettling, things can and will return to a base level of happiness and joy. You just have to slowly but surely work towards it.

Today's episode is all about beginnings, endings, and everything in-between. If you're at the very pinnacle of a relationship (i.e. - marriage), or the very start of a budding romance (i.e. - that amazing first date), the roadmap before you may not be as straightforward as you assume. Every relationship is a crazy choose-your-own-adventure, and today's stories capture that essence perfectly.

Today's episode is all about questioning both the big things and the small things in life.

While most of the general populace assumes that confidence is a rent/lease/sublet type of situation, they are sorely mistaken. Confidence is yours and only yours. It does not depend upon others, nor does it need anyone's permission to exist and thrive. The next time you're considering making a self-deprecating joke or about to mock an aspect of yourself, please, as a favor to us: hold that thought.

This week, we tackle two stories about facing a tough reality and figuring out how to move forward. In one, it's all about doing things for love. In the other, it's all about doing things for fun. In both instances, however, one has to confront extremely hard truths, accept the complexity of the situation, and devise a strategy in order to make a course correction for a healthy, happy future.
