Your Friend Isn't Your Therapist

Dear Media
About this episode

We're diving into your voice messages, DMs, and my own story on mental health in this second episode of season 3 of the Nicole Walters Podcast!

 

Welcome back friend! It's been so fun getting your voice messages and DMs on social.

 

In this episode you'll hear my thoughts on:

  • Should I quit my 9-5 now or later to pursue my passion?
  • It it all too late if we're considering divorce? (Yep, we're going there friend!), and 
  • The ups and downs of my mental health and what I do about it

 

If there is one thing I want you to take away from this episode, it's that your friend ISN'T your therapist.

 

Thank you so much for being here and being vulnerable with me! Let me know what you're going to do with this information and what actions you're going to take by sending me a message on IG or Facebook @NicoleWalters. I want to hear from you!

Talk soon friend!
