Cyrina Fiallo, actress, artist and all around wonderful human talks about getting into the game later, nerves and how everyone should be seeing a therapist! WE AGREE!!! Host Cristina Fernandez is NOT the president of Argentina. Ilana accidentally wears Birks to an audition but uses the very real embarrassment for the character. . . she does not book this job. Keep an eye out for Cyrina's live show, "The Great Adult Do Over Extravaganza." It is a chance for adults to redeem that one performance, audition, or dream! We are all unintentionally On Wikifeet. Cyrina shares her hyperhidrosis diagnosis which stems from anxiety.

Author Jane Borden started as a comedian but has gone full research journalist with her latest book, Cults Like Us! We love cults, cults love us, and we are here for it. Did you know the Pilgrims were basically a doomsday group!? Cristina will start a crying cult. Ilana has really edged up against several cults... also, she does have an incredible opportunity to talk to you about when you have a chance. Have you heard of Neurasthenia? It's too much self help and self seeking that can leave you feeling crappy! So trust that you're on the right path and take it all with a grain of salt. Meditation is not self exploration, so close your eyes and get busy not thinking! It's the best thing for you.

We got listener mail!!! All we can do is keep the convo going. Remember to discuss with your doctor or mental health professional. It's Mental Health Awareness Month - want to get your challenges off your chest? Hit us up at thatssomentalpodcast@gmail.com.

Endorsements: Small moments of care, mutual aid, listening to music from your past, Mel Robbins Podcast and France... the country.
