the talking journal

my experience with regular journaling is inconsistent. we have an on and off relationship. i find it easier to verbalize my thoughts and emotions rather than write them down and forget them. by starting podcasting i hope to still have something tangible to look back on but also have someone hear my thoughts as well. sometimes i’ll talk about how my days are, what i like right now, dilemmas im going through, life updates, whatever it is… there will be one every sunday. find video episodes on spotify and youtube. find journal prompts on tiktok & instagram: the talking journal
