Kelly and Megan share personal experiences and thought on the concepts of gratitude, words of affirmation, and manifestation. While the ladies believe these practices are useful they believe these internal pep-talks should not be used as a crutch to avoid dealing with potential deeper issues. They also discuss "pop psychology" on social media, which can often oversimplifies complex mental health issues. Their parting words are to think critically about the advice you receive and to understand that everyone's healing journey is unique.
