In Your Feels: Recent Episodes
Allie and JayJay
Mental Health Advocates; Allie and JayJay. Let's normalize talking about our feelings & working through them.
Social Anxiety is shyness on steroids! People who experience social anxiety often worry about conversations and interactions of all sizes, from public speaking, dating, or even everyday small talk.
Allie and JayJay once again share different perspectives on what social anxiety can feel like and ways to improve in your interactions.
Don't worry, you can always default to mentioning the weather when you feel uncomfortable, but know the interaction is only as awkward as you make it in your mind!
You aren't alone on the ride! We all know what it's like to feel the case of "The Struggle Bus" that feeling of...blah. Nothing feels right, nothing seems right, and frankly, the simple thought of doing anything, even the things you love, makes you feel uneasy.
In this episode, Allie and JayJay discuss their few days off from recording and why this short break felt necessary but also brought a fresh perspective!
Just remember, you are in the driver's seat of the Struggle Bus, you, and only you, know when it's time to put it in park!
We don’t always have it all figured out, but that’s okay! In this episode, Allie and JayJay go off script to talk about not knowing what to do, what’s next, or having all the answers. While many of you thrive in a “go with the flow” mentality, many also feel more at ease making and sticking to a plan!
Whatever your method in getting into a groove is, we hope you find comfort in hearing from both Allie and JayJay's perspective on how and why their styles differ.
All relationships take work, but there comes a point where a relationship is purely toxic.
We’ve all experienced in one way or another; a toxic relationship, one that simply drains you, has a lack of cohesiveness, and ultimately the negative moments outweigh the good.
In this episode, we discuss toxic relationships. From warning signs, steps to salvage a relationship you value that’s turned toxic, and discuss our own experiences with toxic relationships.
In this episode, Allie and JayJay discuss the importance of boundaries and the emotions that may surface when saying "no" to others.
Just Say No, twines together a balance of self-care, self-interest, and focuses on character and integrity. They discuss how they've implied this in their values, allowing them to focus on their mental health rather than people's needs.
What do you refuse to allow in your mental headspace, or life, to make sure you're allowing yourself to do what you want and remain focused on what is important to you?
Typically we try to keep things light, but this is a topic we felt was extremely important to emphasize. Today, September 10th is World Suicide Prevention Day, with the entire month of September being Suicide Prevention Awareness Month.
If you or someone you know is in an emergency, call The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or call 911 immediately.
It’s time to raise awareness on this stigmatized and often taboo topic.
Sometimes, the hardest part is believing you can!

Many of us are guilty of overthinking and having anxious thoughts, some more serious than others, but that doesn't mean it makes it any less difficult. Winston Churchill said “When I look back on all these worries I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which never happened.”
We hope you enjoy hearing a little bit about how we overcome what triggers our anxious thoughts and find helpful ways to ease the voice in your mind when you begin to overthink.
