Let's Be Realistic, Mmm'kay? + I'm So Special + Everybody Saying Something, But Ain't Nobody Saying Nothing
Is it possible to break free from the crushing weight of societal "shoulds" and unrealistic expectations? Join us on A Daydreamer's Podcast as we share our journeys toward self-validation and the power of setting personal boundaries. Erin speaks candidly about beginning ADHD medication and the immense relief it brought her by validating her struggles. Meanwhile, K'Shana shares her insights on the subtle but crucial difference between being nice and kind within Southern culture. Together, we tackle the damaging effects of societal pressures, from home ownership to career choices, emphasizing the importance of setting realistic goals and forging your path in life.
In another compelling segment, we dive into the murky waters of personal and professional gaslighting and toxic relationships. Drawing from Melissa Rivers' poignant reflections on her experience with a manipulative partner, we explore the emotional toll of staying in such relationships and underscore the importance of trusting oneself. By sharing our experiences with workplace undermining, we stress the necessity of vigilance and self-advocacy when faced with manipulative behaviors. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation reinforcing the significance of prioritizing personal well-being and trusting your instincts across all facets of life.
