About this listen

...because being grown girlie is weird, and I have feelings... and a mic lol.

Welcome to This Is Why I Journal!

It is a solo podcast hosted by Dana that explores what it means and how it feels to grow up, go through the motions, and spiral... with intention in this age.

We'll be unpacking everything from girlhood grief and emotional burnout, societal standards, to boundaries, womanhood, identity, digital overwhelm, and the messy art of healing, among other stuff.

Because being a grown-up is weird and we are bound to have feelings.
