Suffering Sucks Ass (Hack: Don't do it alone)

Today we talk about how knowing what you DON'T want is the first step to figuring out what you DO want. We also discuss that happiness is not the goal in life. Being able to accept ourselves in all states is more realistic and brings more flow to life and helps you to access your inner baddass. Loneliness will always exacerbate pain so removing loneliness by connecting with others will buffer emotional pain and remind you that you are, in fact, resilient. Kat also shares some of her own journey and how she has found meaning in her own suffering.

They hope this podcast will help people to be in acceptance of their flaws and find their power in healing trauma, depression and anxiety through REPAIRenting themselves and others. They also want to validate that perfect parenting is not only impossible, but also discouraged as a goal since life is really just a crazy roller coaster, full of twists and turns that we are all doing our best to navigate. It's time to put down the expectations and start having some fun. Be nicer to yourself. Own and learn from your mistakes but don't live there. Know that when you screw up, you can always REPAIR and REPAIRent.
