Grace Helbig is on the show today! We've known Grace casually from the New York comedy scene for years, but on today's episode, we get to KNOW Grace! Grace was one of the first YouTubers out there; she's an actor and voiceover artist (you can hear here most recently as Cindy Bear on Max's Jellystone!), a podcaster and the author of TWO books! On today's episode, Grace walks us through the early days of "content creation", the toll it took on her psyche, getting into therapy to figure that stuff out, meeting her husband, going to grad school for Depth Psychology, and finding out she had breast cancer. Yes, folks, we get INTO it and Grace is kind enough to take us through a tour of her adult life! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!

Sage-Based Therapy! That's right, it's part two of our crossover with Sage-Based Wisdom (check us out on their podcast from a week or two ago) hosted by the wonderful Jana Schmieding and Brian Bahe!

But even if you know NOTHING about these two, you will after today's episode! Jana tells us about having her dad teach health class and breaking up with a terrible high school boyfriend and Brian explains why he didn't pay his taxes for a few years and about extricating himself from a 3-day-long Palm Springs hook-up. And so much more! It's a delightfully fun episode! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!
