Often things in life and the people who are in it are more alike than you may think. We all want happiness, connection, and love. We all want to be seen, known, and belong for who we truly are. With the occasional perspective from my friends or influential guests, join me, Jackie, a graduate student that loves people & learning, as we uncover the ways we are more alike than different. Tune in as we chat about the things we all navigate daily; life, self-care, relationships, and everything in between. Sometimes as humans, we can get in our own way of living our best lives. Let’s work toward getting out of our way and learn to live our best lives together. When we open ourselves up to each other we begin to understand how alike we truly are and celebrate the beauty that makes us different.
