We are 3 friends who want to tell the stories of toxic relationships and those who have survived. Although we are dealing with extremely serious subjects, the style of the show is conversational, fun, and very informal. We feel strongly that part of the healing process includes finding humor in even the most unpalatable topics. These episodes contain some triggering material and is best suited for adults over the age of 18. Please listen with care. This is the first of what we hope are many seasons. Season One contains over 20 completed episodes and we drop new episodes every Wednesday

Tapper walks us through the fragile and resilient community that is a forest.
