On this episode, Bre and Madi open up about their high school experiences, reflecting on the pressures, anxieties, and lack of mental health awareness they faced. They discuss how they navigated these challenges and want to share a message of hope: even though high school can feel overwhelming, many of the things that seem crucial now may feel less important over time. Through their stories, they aim to help students feel less alone and remind them that things do get better after high school.
