A Lifelong Battle
We’re back….again! It took us a bit but here we are with a very open & honest conversation about Julie’s lifelong mental health journey. From therapy, anxiety meds, psychiatric hospital stays and growth. Julie tells it all! “Our goal with this podcast has always been to show others they are not alone and hopefully save lives. I always knew I wanted to share my entire story but it took me a year of episodes to feel comfortable enough to share it. Thank you to everyone who has ever listened to even a single episode. We wouldn’t be here without you!” -Julie

Insurance is Bullshit
This week Abby shares her experience with switching health insurances and her frustration with the process of refilling meds, getting a doctor appointment, and other basic healthcare needs.

I have a uterus and I'm going to talk about it!
Rage doesn’t even begin to explain it.This week Julie and Abby talk about periods… and medical ignorance… and body autonomy… and the right to an abortion… and the politics that surround it all. Because you can’t talk about menstruating without talking about everything it connects to––WHICH IS FUCKING EVERYTHING.This was supposed to be a short episode about cramps and emotions, but nothing about this topic is simple, fair, or just. Join us and rage!Want to do more than just rage? Consider donating or volunteering for the Eastern Massachusetts Abortion (EMA) Fund if you’re in our area: https://www.emafund.org/ Or if you’re located elsewhere, find your local Abortion Fund here: https://abortionfunds.org/funds/
