Chris Klemens is a comedian, podcast host, and “world renowned hot mess”. His podcast, which is aptly described as a love child of The Daily Show and Tosh.0, shows off Chris’ ability to be hilariously chaotic and thoughtfully poignant all at once (our kinda energy). This Thought, Chris unpacks transition periods and shifts in identity that come with ten years of comedy on the internet and a cross-country move.  You&#39;re going to want to watch this episode on Youtube: https://youtu.be/5wzj4OsVNz8 And truly as a tip from us to you, if you’re not already following Chris, you are wildly missing out:  MORE CHRIS:Podcast: <a href="https://link.chtbl.com/unhinged" rel="nofollow">https://link.chtbl.com/unhinged</a>Youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/chris/featured" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/chris/featured</a>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/chrisklemens/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/chrisklemens/</a>Tik Tok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@chrisklemens?lang=en" rel="nofollow">https://www.tiktok.com/@chrisklemens?lang=en</a> Follow Us<a href="https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod</a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@thoughtsmayvarypod" rel="nofollow">https://www.tiktok.com/@thoughtsmayvarypod</a>Meadow: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/itsmeadowlark/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/itsmeadowlark</a>Gaby: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gabyulloa_/?hl=en" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/gabyulloa_</a> Join our Patreon! <a href="https://www.patreon.com/thoughtsmayvary" rel="nofollow">https://www.patreon.com/thoughtsmayvary</a>Watch episodes: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXwFvKTN7i7kr_xjsKsr5PA DISCLAIMER: We are not licensed professionals.

Welcome to Vicious Cycle! Where we rehash old Thoughts during our hiatus until Season 2. We&#39;re starting you off with one of the girls&#39; favs. Enjoy! Well, well, well if it isn’t Gaby’s long lost hermana. Please give a warm welcome to Tefi Pessoa, the content creator and media personality the world needs. The TikTok legend, TEDx speaker, and certified Miami mami not only solves Meadow’s identity issues and Gaby’s q’s about masculine and feminine energies, but also gives Meadow an intro into what being from Miami means while reminding Gaby who tf she is. Put it this way, within the first 5 minutes of the episode, Meadow heard Gaby’s voice hit octaves she didn’t know where possible. Thoughts span from: confidence with bad bitch dimples (aka cellulite), self empowerment/not letting other’s tell you who you are, code switching from too-latina to not-latina-enough, and so much more. Stay tuned to the very end for the drama that was a round of “This or That: Miami Edition.” Don’t forget to do your homework before the episode (links below).

This week, the girls discuss mental health stigma’s reputation as a cultural flaw (when it should be viewed through a lens of racism) and how coping is valid whether you’re smoking a cigarette or making compassionate space for your feelings in a therapy setting.

Well, well, well if it isn’t Gaby’s long lost hermana. Please give a warm welcome to Tefi Pessoa, the content creator and media personality the world needs. The TikTok legend, TEDx speaker, and certified Miami mami not only solves Meadow’s identity issues and Gaby’s q’s about masculine and feminine energies, but also gives Meadow an intro into what being from Miami means while reminding Gaby who tf she is. Put it this way, within the first 5 minutes of the episode, Meadow heard Gaby’s voice hit octaves she didn’t know where possible. Thoughts span from: confidence with bad bitch dimples (aka cellulite), self empowerment/not letting other’s tell you who you are, code switching from too-latina to not-latina-enough, and so much more. Stay tuned to the very end for the drama that was a round of “This or That: Miami Edition.” Don’t forget to do your homework before the episode (links below).

People tend to act like life begins at the age of fame for those thrown into the spotlight. It’s an ironic story for someone who is the living embodiment of ‘leading your own charge’. Natalie Joy, certified surgical technologist and model, was thrown into said spotlight primarily through the lens of her partner, entrepreneur and former Bachelor, Nick Viall. Little does that following know how resilient, tenacious, and grounded this woman truly is. Which is why our cohosts were beyond honored to peel back the curtain and share another amazing woman and dear friend&#39;s story. This week, Natalie so generously shared her thoughts on:<ul><li>Her origin story: chasing after dreams no matter what your path looks like</li><li>Finding healthy love after abuse </li><li>Coping with projections in media (‘would you ever take life advice from these people?’)</li><li>Positive self talk and reframing as a way to build in confidence</li><li>Romanticizing your life for yourself, not for the consumption of others </li></ul> The good moods are infectious. Thank you again Natalie! Content Warning: This episode includes conversation around abusive relationships, from roughly the 25-30 minute mark, with strong verbiage around physical abuse. If that feels activating for you in any way, skip this portion or come back another Monday, we’ll be here :)  FOLLOW NATALIE:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/nnataliejjoy/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/nnataliejjoy/</a> Also follow us (don’t let Gaby’s asana calendar live in vain) <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod</a> DISCLAIMER: We are not licensed professionals.

This week, TMV welcomes icon and role model Chrissy Rutherford to the pod! Chrissy is a living embodiment of everything the girls love: an editorial and social media legend with over 12 years in the industry who also champions mental health and cofounded 2BG Consulting with fellow editor Danielle Prescod to consult for fashion and beauty brands (along with influencers) on how to implement anti-racist communication strategies. Her career is so impressive that naturally the girl’s spent little-to-no time covering it. Instead, they got to know Chrissy’s thoughts on:<ul><li>Self discovery and personal development as a lifelong journey </li><li>Operating on your own timeline and finding peace within yourself (rather than external sources)</li><li>How her family reacts to her open vulnerability of their family dynamics online </li><li>Where anxiety meets spirituality from life lessons to meditation</li></ul> ALL THINGS CHRISSY:<a href="https://www.chrissyrutherford.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.chrissyrutherford.com/</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/chrissyford/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/chrissyford/</a>Chrissy’s newsletter archive: <a href="https://www.chrissyrutherford.com/fwdjoy" rel="nofollow">https://www.chrissyrutherford.com/fwdjoy</a>Sign up for Chrissy’s newsletter: <a href="https://www.chrissyrutherford.com/newsletter" rel="nofollow">https://www.chrissyrutherford.com/newsletter</a> Also follow us (don’t let Gaby’s asana calendar live in vain) <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod</a> DISCLAIMER: We are not licensed professionals.

This week, Gaby vulnerably and generously shares her thoughts on her experience at the Hoffman Process (a week-long healing retreat of transformation and development for people who feel stuck in their life). As a Hoffman legacy, she knew this therapy bootcamp would as expected as going to college in her family, but she always stood firm on going on her own terms. And thankfully so, for this very life-changing time spent at Hoffman became what she decided to publicly share about (despite the stigma) on one beloved mental health blog - The Local Optimist - while Meadow was still managing it.

THOUGHT 10: Maddi Bragg’s Thoughts on Friendships, Leaving the Internet (and returning), and Her Spiritual Glow-Up

Three best friends sit down to talk all things sex. You’re welcome. This week’s thought features the pod’s resident sex fairy, Meadow’s long-time bff, Gaby’s new(ish) bff, and founder of the best underwear company in the world b.WR, Sara Shokouhi. From the brand’s birth-story and it’s sexual wellness roots to pity fucking, slut-shaming, why Gaby refuses to have mediocre sex and why Sara deserves an award for never faking an orgasm—no topic is off limits. Because that’s the whole point, isn’t it? To cultivate enough of an approachable and (hopefully) educational narrative around a very basic and primal need.  Plus, the girls unpack why anger may just be their best motivator (sounds super healthy) and deprogramming cultural stigmas while Sara poses the valuable question: how are we expected to be fully functional sexual beings if we’re never taught anything and what we are potentially taught is dripping in shame? Get ready for quite the listen and join the girls on their quest to debunk the myth that the person you marry will inventively be shitty in bed.  ALL THINGS SARA:Allow us to introduce you to your new favorite underwear: https://wearbwr.com/Follow Sara: https://www.instagram.com/sarayoz/Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod/ CONTENT WARNING: If the first five seconds of this episode aren&#39;t indicator enough, probably be intentional about who you play this episode around.

THOUGHT 08: Is Trauma Our Brand?

Friend, entrepreneur, model, and pilates instructor - Tasha Franken - joins Gaby and Meadow for Thought 07 where the three begin to scratch the surface on the mind-body connection.  Tasha’s thoughts move from her experience healing with an eating disorder, to her “scout story”, to how the phrase ‘do what feels good’ is extremely irritating when you can’t trust yourself yet or don’t understand how to connect with your body, to the potential for someone to discover her long lost journals and make millions with a tell-all.  ALL THINGS TASHA:Find Tasha&#39;s studio and amazing pilates classes here: https://www.tashafranken.tv/Follow Tasha: https://www.instagram.com/tashafranken/Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/thoughtsmayvarypod/ CONTENT WARNING: Today&#39;s thought discusses eating disorders at length (but not in detail) including touching on aspects like dieting, body image, juice cleanses, etc. If those subjects feel activating to you in any way, or if you’re just not in the place today, feel free to come back to us next week.

THOUGHT 07: Tasha Franken's Thoughts on the Mind-Body Connection, ED Recovery, & 'Doing What Feels Good'

This week’s Thought is a big one. Meadow, as a mental health professional and suicide loss survivor (the girls unpack it, it’s a counterintuitive term they know), shares her personal story and all the tools, tips, and resources she has accumulated in an effort to make suicide prevention less scary. They cover thoughts around Meadow losing her brother, how to have an &#39;are you suicidal?&#39; conversation, and everything suicide prevention related that should be covered in our public education by now. Again, Meadow is not a licensed therapist, but a mental health worker who worked in non-profits within the Behavioral Healthcare System for many years. If you are in need of immediate support, please dial 911. If you are need of resources or support right now, text HELLO to 741-741 or call the Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.  NOTE: By July 2022, the United States will have a National Suicide Hotline that can be reached by dialing 9-8-8. This Act was signed into law thanks to NAMI! One of the former nonprofits Meadow worked for! CONTENT WARNING: Today&#39;s thought discusses suicide prevention and a story of suicide loss (no means or details mentioned).

Two Libras and a Taurus log into a Zoom... This week, cool girl and host of the We Met At Acme podcast, Lindsey Metselaar, joins the girls for a low key Zoom hang-out.

For Thought 04, the girls are joined by their friend and gifted author, Cole Brown. The three discuss thoughts on: being Black in white spaces, how to move through identity formation when people project narratives onto you, separating Cole the person from Cole the character, and the dichotomy between caring so much about your words and art.Cole also dives into his the thoughts behind his work, touching on the cowriting process of working on Matt James&#39; (the first Black Bachelor) new book as well as the dichotomy between caring so much about his words only to relinquish creative control while turning it into a TV show (yeah, Greyboy was picked up by ABC Signature and Yara Shahidi&#39;s 7th Sun production company with Cole as an Executive Producer.)

This Throwback Thursday (don’t worry, we know it’s Monday), we’re going back in time briefly to when summer was just turning into fall. The girls got on a call to unpack their summer baggage and reflect on their brief podcasting hiatus. Their unfiltered stream-of-consciousness takes you on a journey from thoughts surrounding: consciously choosing confidence each morning to being single for the first time since forming a healthy self-identity to an obligatory gush over their friendship to gaby reading from her journal to diagnosing random skin ailments and discussing their self-prescribed treatment.

This week on TMV, the girls welcome their first guest and internet-turned-irl-friend Sophia Kelly to the podcast. Sophia is a lifestyle and wellness influencer who overshares as much as Gaby and Meadow on the internet. She also has just as many thoughts on topics including-but-lot-limited-to: body image and getting work done, owning your identity after accepting identities that were projected onto you, and grappling with not having the excuse of “bad parents” to blame for your mental health challenges.

Y’all are in for a spicy first thought from the girls. On this inaugural thought (btw we call episodes “thoughts” around here), Meadow &amp; Gaby are opening up about their experiences within toxic and abusive relationships. But before you hear that, the girls had to pop in to record a little intro with a disclaimer about how some new revelations have vastly changed their thinking on the subject. (TLDR; one of us is talking about our experience with a past toxic relationship while they are presently in a healthy relationship…. yeah, well since the time of recording that, the relationship has then ended. the intro has the tea.)  CONTENT WARNING: The girls are discussing toxic and abusive traits, behaviors, and personal experiences.
