In honor of premiering the first episode under the new name, The Pretty Uncomfortable Podcast, I chose to get, well.....uncomfortable. 

In this raw and vulnerable episode I share a story that I have never publicly shared before. One that is, quite honestly, filled with a lot of shame and embarrassment, but also a story that is important to tell. 

In this episode I share my journey through my darkest days. It is a difficult story to tell, but it carries so many themes that we can all relate to- toxic relationships, carrying burdens alone, difficult decisions, loss and death, and  finding ourselves lost.

I share with you a story that begins when the covid shutdowns began, where in the midst of a quickly deteriorating relationship I am faced with the unexpected death of my mother, my biggest support system. Under the weight of numerous traumas, combined with a sleep-deprived mind and a malnourished body, my mind hit a breaking point. 

As things began to pile up and I could no longer bear the weight, things came to an explosive head on one fateful day that would change my life, and who I was, forever.
