Crazy Lisa's TM "Misery Tour" through Cancer and Heartbreak (0 out of 10, do not recommend) has taken on yet another hurdle... this time involving an ambulance, a prolonged hospital stay and the inevitable avalanche of grief and fear that comes with such things.*

Bik holds space for Lis as she cries (a lot) and laughs (a LOT) at how utterly rediculous life can be sometimes.

Come along with us along this windy path between recalling our loose and free teenage years, some random facts about sharks, facing the uncertainty of mortality, promises and plans for the future and a whole lot more.

*Silver lining - Bik and her family got to have Molly for a week again! Huzzah!

On today's episode of "Bik's podcast" (IYKYK), Crazy Lisa TM drops some Reddit content on the mic that initially enrages their feminist views on how we show up in relationships... but as it turns out it's actually pretty decent advice. It explores self-care, giving and receiving both praise and criticism, learning to hold your tongue and own your own emotions... much of which is new territory for ya girl Lis.

Of course we side quest into The Real Lives of Mormon Housewives, generational workaholism and how the youths really are winning life in the world of boundaries. You'll be pleased to know there are minimal bursts of song in this one.

TW: Mental Health, Suicidal Ideation, Heartbreak, Grief.

Ooooooft. This ep was hard. Really, really friggin hard.

But it was also beautiful, and raw, and brave, and full of love, and full of grief, and generous, and heartfelt. As much as it is full of hurt, it is actually pretty amazing.

Crazy Lisa TM rips her heart wide open and shares the truth about what's happening in her life at the moment. It's the most Ugly Honest chat you could imagine.

Please come into our session and listen with open ear and open hearts (as I know you will). This is real talk, real life, real shitty, shitty stuff. This is the epitome of why we do this podcast.
