This week, Lish and D get real about the weight we all carry loss, change, and how the hell we’re supposed to cope when life throws the unthinkable at us. From the messy reality of dealing with grief to the everyday ways we try to survive in a world that feels like it’s constantly breaking, nothing is off the table.
We’re talking coping mechanisms (the healthy ones and the not so healthy ones), the state of the world, and what it actually means to keep moving when you’d rather not.
We want to hear from you:
