I Am Not Okay

I Am Not Okay

Season four has been a rollercoaster ride. Still dealing with self-healing. Natasha briefly discussed the importance of taking a mental break.

This was supposed to be the initial of the season. We were up at 2 am trying to record this episode (the reason it's soooooo short), but I feel this was the perfect time for it to be released.


In this episode, we focus on:

  • Why do we need to take mental breaks and also some breaks from dating?

  • Why it isn’t good to date when you’re not mentally ready?

  • What are some self-care routines we can try when you’re not okay?

So sit back and listen as I get REAL...
