In this episode Tim & Jamie invite special guest Victoria Mahkahnjuohla from the Feel Your FeelingZ podcast to discuss a variety of things, like Saturday morning rituals when you were 10 (remember USA Cartoon Express?) and if Cookie Crisp is a posh cereal. After discussing some similarities between Gen Z and Gen X, we dive deep into a discussion about Mental health, including a conversation about empathy and what role vulnerability plays in our health and wellness. We then take a closer look at practical steps that help us navigate the anxiety and negativity that often creep into our lives; things like creativity, Random acts of kindness, writing, listening to music & eating snacks! Note: none of us are experts, just human beings who value meaningful conversations. We hope this episode inspires you. We know it inspired us.

Takeaways: You Matter. Your Voice Matters.
