Hot topics, Name changes, and celebrity overdose.

We discuss the untimely death of Aaron Carter and the role of social media. Digging deeper we discuss the impact social media can have on mental health disorders and addiction. What's the cost of trolling people's lives when they are in the midst of a high, or crisis and doing nothing?

We all have a choice to do better, to be better, and to be more kind to others on social media. In the same way, an addict has a choice about whether or not to use it.

Addiction rates are at epidemic levels for women especially and overdoses are killing people every day. Childhood trauma and the inability to develop coping skills usually lie at the bottom of all that. Join us as we go over that and more!

We believe when you share openly with someone about your own struggles, you create a safe space that gives them permission to share openly and honestly also, and that’s the most powerful catalyst to change and connection. We believe healing is a journey, not a destination. If you’re struggling, know you are not alone, and this, too, will pass.

We are changing the name of the show, and we need your help! Make sure to head over to the website and message us ideas for names or leave a voice message and we'll mention it in upcoming episodes. While you're there don't forget to subscribe to stay in the know of all the exciting new things we’ve got coming.

They're the breakups nobody talks about: adult friendships. In this episode, we explore the complicated feelings around friendship breakups, our personal experiences, and why they can be worse than romantic ones.

Here is an additional episode because the drama surrounding T. Swift's latest video antihero has brought up some feelings for lots of women including us!

When have we gone too far? When are artists going to be able to share their art with raw vulnerability again? Will they ever be able to share their emotions again without the impending backlash from social media and the faceless army of trolls who create campaigns to tear people down and hit cancel on their art, their careers, and their potential to create again?

Whatever happened to having different experiences and being ok with that? Why do we have to have backlash over everything?

If someone shares their innermost insecurities and demons do we then have the right to vilify them because they aren't fat enough? Sorry not sorry internet, we don't have the right to bully someone (celebrity or not) into submission. We all have feelings around our bodies and our own individual insecurities so when is that going to be enough? Why doesn't the conversation shift from shaming, blaming, and hating on someone to wow, you feel that way about your body too? Cancel culture is out and quite frankly we're sick of it.

Join us in this raw unfiltered discussion about women's bodies and eating disorders.

If you struggle with an eating disorder and need help please contact the national eating disorder helpline: (800) 931-2237 or nationaleatingdisorders.org If you are in crisis and need help immediately text NEDA to 741741.

As mentioned in the show today check out disordered eating podcasts that have helped Brooke with her own issues around food and body image like Eat the rules with Summer Innanen.

Sound off on social media and tell us what you guys think about the whole video situation.
