Instant Gratification

Instant Gratification

By Mariem Diaz

Instant Gratification is a podcast that comes from my love of open and real conversations. I like playing Devil's advocate and I will most likely not be politically correct. We focus on relationships, mental health, and living as an artist in coastal hubs with the struggles and excitement that come with that. My goal is for you to finish the podcast feeling more connected and positive than before you started.
