When life gives you lemons, what do you do with them? Over here at The Squeeze—we talk about it—"it" being our mental health and well being. Host Taylor Lautner's (no, not that guy, but she is married to that guy) introduction to mental health was at a young age, witnessing friends and family suffer in ways she couldn't fully understand. She started a nursing career in the peak of the pandemic and has been struggling with her own mental health ever since. Tay is joined co-host, husband Taylor Lautner, in addition to celebrity and expert guests to further the conversation surrounding mental wellness. At the end of the day, we're all pretty similar; even those living in the lime-est of lights can be weighed down by sour lemons. In addition to sharing coping strategies and stories, we hope that above all, this podcast offers the comfort of knowing you are not alone.
In this week’s episode, Tay sits down with co-host of Chicks in the Office, Francesca Mariano! Francesca starts off by sharing stories from her wedding, opens up about her first year of marriage, and passes along her best tips for couples on their wedding day. She then talks through her mental health journey that began during her time at Georgetown — including what ultimately led her to leave college, start therapy, and redefine what success looked like for her. Francesca reflects on the biggest takeaways from that chapter of her life, how she landed an internship at Barstool, how Chicks in the Office came to life, and what it’s been like maintaining such a strong friendship and business partnership with her co-host Ria Ciuffo over the years. She also shares the self-care tools that keep her grounded, the advice she’d give her college-aged self, and the accomplishment she’s most proud of today.
