Figuring It Out
Figuring It Out
Grace Mosscrop
The lessons and life of a 20-year-old college student with anxiety. That description makes this seem like a bad movie I would've loved in middle school, but there really is no other way for me to describe what this podcast will entail. I have no idea what this will be or what I will talk about; all I know is that I'm figuring it out.
Brown Nail Polish
In this week's episode, I talk about everything from Patti Smith to chopping my hair off. I discuss my various weaknesses and how our faults can also be a positive thing, rather than something to fear or diminish. I bring up my fascination with the story of our life and point out how much of a privilege it is to form a human connection with those around us. I talk about my own experience with my bad memory and the random things that can take us back to a specific moment from our past. This episode will touch on insecurity, growth, and the fear of losing who we once were. I hope you enjoy this week's episode, and let’s start Figuring It Out together.

Mental Illness Mural
In this episode, I discuss the mental illness mural and describe how it’s felt to delete social media. I talk about the fear of letting myself down and how I’ve grown and changed in the last few years into a better version of myself, while still being grateful for my past self. It’s a little all over the place and I talk about a variety of things but I think it will offer listeners a lot of reassurance and comfort. This is an episode that anybody can relate to and it should hopefully make you feel a little less alone in your thoughts and feelings. So please pull up a chair and let’s start Figuring It Out together.

I Wish I Liked Pesto
Welcome back to the Figuring It Out podcast! In this week's episode, we talk about pesto, monster mash, and putting too much pressure on yourself. It's a little bit all over the place, as these podcasts usually are, but it still should provide you with some valuable information on living with anxiety and acknowledging the good in your life. I hope you enjoy this week's episode and thank you so much for listening.

Overwhelmed in Ohio
After a little bit of a break, we are back with the third episode of the Figuring It Out podcast! This week’s episode talks about expectations, feeling overwhelmed, and just the overall weirdness that comes with being a college student. This also marks one month of being in Ohio, hence the title, and how that has milestone has made me feel in terms of comfort and discontentment. I touch on being homesick, longing for joy, and missing the warmth and ease of past stages of life. I hope you enjoy this little bit of myself I have shared with you, and I'm so glad we all can figure it out together.

I Worry A Lot
In this week's episode, I discuss my very first week of college. I share my experiences with worrying about worrying, expectations, and offer up a few things I have learned over this past week. Wow! I said week three times! Oh, well! I repeat myself a lot in this episode anyways, so we love to see the consistency throughout the entire production process. I hope you enjoy this week's episode. Thank you for listening.

Nothing You Can Do
The very first episode of my podcast is just a sort of introduction and overview of my life. I touch on the last 72 hours, which included moving across the country, many panic attacks, and a lot of contemplating if I can really do this whole college thing. This podcast is all over the place and points out some of the perks of living with anxiety, and tells a few hilarious jokes along the way. If you know me in real life, you know that this is exactly how I talk, so if you like just listening to a rambling anxious young adult spew out word vomit for thirty minutes, this is the episode for you. This is a podcast anybody who has experienced a change in their life can relate to, and I hope you find solace in my stories, thoughts, and feelings. Thank you.

An Introduction
Welcome To My Life I have decided to record myself talking. I will post once a week, or less, or more; who really knows. But this is a place where I will talk to all of you. I hope you listen; I hope you laugh; I hope you enjoy it. Please be patient, this is the first one, it's very short, and I am still a little all over the place and exhausted from a day of traveling. Feel free to comment on this post, and share it with other people as you see fit.    Days at UC: 2   Feeling: Anxious and Overwhelmed
