Season 1 Episode 3: Peace Above a Paycheck


“Welcome to THE ULTIMATE VENT SESH with your hosts Karissa and Melanie. Week after week we will share some of our deepest unshared truths, invite others to join us, and discuss some of the most difficult topics in mental health and how they are compounded by everyday stimuli in today’s society


Topics we’ll discuss in this episode:

  • Someone living paycheck to paycheck gets held hostage to toxic work environments because financial health becomes more important than mental health

  • Breaking down why a toxic workplace is even more common than we believe, and why it’s such a massive problem that’s way too often overlooked.

  • Doubt and imposter feelings are a big reason people hold back and play small instead of going for what they truly desire at work. The resulting burnout that plagues everyone in the workplace today, it’s no wonder that so many are undervaluing themselves and their abilities. These doubtful thoughts and systemic issues are expensive―they cost people their peace, their potential, and their paychecks.

  • PEOPLE DONT QUIT BAD JOBS THEY QUIT BAD MANAGEMENT 

  • It’s time to own who you are, trust yourself, and take your bravest next step.

  • “You owe some people your absence and it’s time to deliver on that!”

We also sell merch curated towards straight to the point positivity on our website:
