In this deeply intimate episode, singer-songwriter Mogli opens up about heartbreak, depression, and the courage it takes to start over emotionally and creatively.

She shares how the darkest year of her life gave birth to her most honest music, and how vulnerability, therapy, and chosen family helped her return to joy.

From writing “Patience” in the middle of a heartbreak spiral to rebuilding her relationship with creativity, Mogli reflects on the emotional mirror music can become — and why letting yourself be seen is the first step toward healing.

This is an unfiltered conversation about mental health, love, loss, and the power of expression when nothing else seems to work. If you’ve ever felt like you were starting from scratch, this episode will meet you right where you are.
