Random Personal Stories Podcasts

A girl talk, comedy and lifestyle podcast brought to you by millennials who just get it. Leah and Cara, two 30-somethings, attempt to answer the question ‘Is it Real or is it Ridiculous’ when faced with life’s biggest WTF moments. They reminisce on their life experiences, with a splash of sarcasm, and share their most real and most ridiculous stories. The girls take turns getting personal, offering unsolicited (and yet sometimes welcome) advice and no topic is off the table. From lighthearted memories to introspective conversations, they discuss everything from dating and relationships to dealing with anxiety and feeling confident in your own skin (and everything in between). Ending the show with the pastime that solidified their friendship, Leah and Cara play their favorite game together and answer ridiculous questions with even more ridiculous answers. Follow them on instagram @realridiculous and look out for new episodes every Wednesday!

My name is Tae, and I’m the fattest girl in the room.Maybe I’m not really “the fattest” girl in the room all the time, probably not even half the time. But boy do I feel like it almost every single day. Because when it really boils down to it, being “the fattest girl in the room” isn’t about being fat at all. It’s about being ashamed of yourself, feeling like you have to apologize for who you are and what you look like, and, worst of all, thinking that whatever horrible thoughts you feel, you deserve.I’ve spent years writing myself off because I was too fat, and telling myself that I’d do [insert activity here] when I was skinnier, because I somehow though the key to a good life was being skinny. That is until I realized life was passing me by while I was sitting idly on the bench waiting to get skinny. This podcast is for all those out fat girls out there who think they’re not good enough to have an awesome life. For those women that feel like their bodies make them less desirable. And for those people who let their bodies hold them back from pursuing their dreams. I think we’ve all body shamed, degraded and judged ourselves enough for a few lifetimes.Join me and my fat friends while we tackle fat girl issues, talk about loving ourselves even when we don’t want to and share comical and heartwarming stories about fat girl life.Your body. Your life. Your confidence. Let’s celebrate.

I love stories of Overcoming and Becoming. Hi, welcome to the Corner of Hope and Wellness with Carrie Hill. Each week I’ll bring you a thirty minute, bite-sized conversation with real people sharing real stories of overcoming challenges and finding resiliency. I created this podcast so that I could explore the intersection between hope and wellness. It’s based on my own lived experience with depression, anxiety and overcoming an eating disorder. My definition of hope is a desire for a GREAT outcome – So, when I talk about that intersection, I’m talking about that place where we experience those sparks along our path that inspire us and lead us to a place of resiliency. My guests will share their day to day tools that have helped them along their journey. My desire is that not only are our stories relatable, but they will inspire you to invest in yourself through this adventure called life.
