We all need a friend we can talk to about anything. But it’s not always easy to find people who are willing to open up about pretty much anything. Allow me to be that friend. This is a podcast where no topic is off-limits, and we swap judgment for aiming to understand and relate to each other. Let’s just talk about life--the messy parts, and the pretty parts, and the in-between. We’ll talk self-love, mental health, relationships, body image, and so much more! Have a topic you wanna bring on? Pitch your idea to me over on Instagram @laurenmkendrick.

Thursday Apr 06, 2023
Thursday Apr 06, 2023
Hey bestie,
Can you believe I showed up two weeks in a row?! And boyyy do I have some tea for you this week. If you've been following along on Insta, you know this week we've been talking a ton about how it feels when people comment on your appearance, unhinged things men have told us, and stuff like that. I also share how I let myself down this weekend and what I did to pick myself back up. It's a juicy one, so grab your preferred drink and stay a while!
Oh, and here's a link for the book I talked about: Old Enough by Haley Jakobson
If you're not following me on IG, come join the party @laurenmkendrick!
Love you so much, and we'll chat again soon.

Ep. 141: My Broken Ankle | Posing Tips | The Male Gaze
Saturday Apr 01, 2023
Saturday Apr 01, 2023
I know, I know. I'm a flake. I started strong in January and promised I'd be back in your ear every week, and then I ghosted you. But I have a good excuse, promise! This week's episode (and my podcasting return) is all about the roller derby incident I had in January, what recovering from a broken ankle taught me about myself, and then we get to have some fun and chat about camera posing tips to make you feel like a baddie & the male gaze. Check it out and then share your biggest takeaway with me on IG @laurenmkendrick.
So happy to be back, and I can't wait to hear from you!

Ep. 140: What’s your Personality Type?? (Am I still an INFJ??)
Monday Jan 09, 2023
Monday Jan 09, 2023
Hi, friends!
This week I thought it would be fun to do a Meyer's Briggs personality test together. I took the test a few years ago, and at the time I was an INFJ. I heard it can change with time, so is that still true for me?
Come find out, and take the test along with me or after! Share your results with me on Insta (I'm @laurenmkendrick). I'd love to hear your overall thoughts on the accuracy of your results, and if it taught you anything about yourself!
I used the website ThePersonalityLab.org, but I did have to pay for my results. You can use the same, or there are many free options available online.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this episode and let's chat again soon!
