  • Messy Grief & Loss
    Jul 13 2023

    Please note that this episode contains discussions about death, and trauma surrounding grief and loss. If this could be triggering for you, please feel free to skip this episode.

    Welcome to Episode 51 of the Messy Truths Podcast. After a brief hiatus, the ladies are back with another raw and candid show. This time your hostesses talk about grief.

    Nesha bravely reveals that her mother--affectionately known as The Warden on the show--passed away earlier this year (00:01:00). Thus begins a brutally honest discussion about grief and loss, and the ways in which we try to cope with the death of a loved one.

    Mar talks about what experts consider the 7 Stages of grief (00:08:55). Azar discusses how she struggled to deal with the death of her mother (00:14:35), then Mar talks about her own personal experience grieving the loss of her mother, and some of the risk-taking behaviour associated with bereavement (00:15:15]). Nesha emphasizes the importance of writing a will and estate planning (00:24:55). Azar extols the virtues of group counseling and why repressing feelings is a big no-no (00:33:50).

    The ladies then talk about the complexities of memorializing and keeping shrines of lost loved ones (00:41:10). Finally, they make it clear that self-care should be a major priority for people grieving and what that may look like (00:48:30).

    This Episode 51 is dedicated to The Warden. Rest in power. <3

  • Messy Confessions
    Dec 15 2022

    Welcome to episode 48 of the Messy Truths podcast! In this episode, the ladies explore Reddit, one of Mar's favourite apps. Particularly the r/confessions subreddit where people unveil their most vulnerable confessions on the interweb.

    • A person confesses that they are tired of their girlfriend, but refuses to leave the relationship.
    • A Redditor talks about their experience microdosing on magic mushrooms.
    • A boyfriend admits to catfishing his girlfriend.
    • A heterosexual male in a relationship always seems to find himself masturbating when looking at his male neighbour.

    Listen to the entire show for these confessions and much more!
