The Loneliest Generation: Why Our Teens are Struggling

In this powerful episode of Mirror Mirror on the Mic, Malissa and Inez sit down for an honest, emotional, and eye-opening conversation about the rising epidemic of teen depression.
With rates of anxiety, depression, and loneliness skyrocketing in the last decade, today's teens are carrying more emotional weight than any generation before them-but most of it is hidden behind screens and brave faces.
We are joined by Shawna, a mother of 2 teenagers who has lived this journey and of course Inez who is also living this journey. 
This episode is raw, compassionate, and filled with HOPE! If you love a teen, know a teen, or were once a teen fighting silent battles, this conversation will stay with you.

Chat with me, your friend, Mal

This episode should feel like you and I are just chatting away drinking a glass on red blend after we stuffed our faces with Turkey post Thanksgiving meal. It's a VERY honest take on what life is molding me into. And I do give a lil shoutout to my old childhood bestie and thank her for the bada$$ core memories.

Thanksgiving-90's addition: When Trauma was the Side Dish

Thanksgiving means family, food and potentially feelings you are not "supposed" to have. We are reminiscing on the ghosts of Thanksgiving past, the foods we loved and the chaotic magic of the holiday. We will also give you practical ways to enjoy the day without gaining any additional emotional scars.

Why are we so OBSESSED with True Crime?

Why do we unwind with murder? Like, we'll light a candle, pour some tea, and listen to a podcast about a guy named Gary who buried people in his backyard. There is something strangely comforting about hearing the worst case scenario from the safety of your couch. But maybe our obsession with true crime says more about control, and survival than we think. Let's unpack the psychology behind our love of all things creepy-without having to sleep with the lights on.

The Girl Math of Emotional Spending

You know how girl math justifies a $200 Sephora trip because it's basically free if you use Klarna? Well, welcome to Emotional Math. It's when you justify texting your ex because you "just need closure"-or buying yourself new throw pillows because you survived the week. Emotional spending isn't always money-it's energy, time, forgiveness. So let's talk about how to stop going broke emotionally, one impulse swipe at a time.

Let's Talk about Race baby

Inez and I wanted to talk about the heavy topic of race and racism since we are different races. We reflect our own experiences and then highlight some amazing organizations in the Atlanta area that are bridging the gap between white and black people. 
Hoping the episode gives you a reason to reflect and grow.
