“When Survival Looks Like Blame: My Truth, My Healing”

In this raw and unfiltered solo episode, I share a deeply personal chapter of my journey—one marked by trauma, silence, and eventual self-reflection. This isn’t about shame or blame, but about reclaiming my voice, taking accountability for the spaces I entered, and honoring the strength it takes to survive and keep going. This is my truth, in my own words. Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of sexual assault, including gang rape, and may be triggering to some listeners.

"Refocusing: Rebuilding Me After the Storm"

In this deeply personal episode of Weak Daze, I open up about the journey of turning inward—learning to refocus on myself after heartbreak, trauma, and abuse. I talk about what it looks like to choose yourself when the pieces feel scattered, and how healing isn’t just about forgetting what hurt you, but remembering who you were before it broke you. From losing myself in the pain to finding clarity in the stillness, this episode is for anyone trying to crawl out of the wreckage and rebuild with intention. It's not just about surviving—it's about reclaiming.

"Rewriting the Script: A PhD at 62"

On this episode of Weak Daze, we sit down with Dr. Gail McFarland, a 62-year-old PhD graduate in Film and Media whose journey is a masterclass in resilience, reinvention, and radical authenticity. Taking a nontraditional path to her degree, Dr. McFarland opens up about the challenges and triumphs of returning to academia later in life and how her lifelong passion for storytelling and Black representation in media became the heartbeat of her research. From raising a family to finding her voice in spaces that weren’t always built for her, Dr. McFarland proves that purpose has no expiration date. We talk legacy, media, and what it means to defy expectations on your own terms. 🎙️ Because at Weak Daze, it’s never about the straight line—it’s about the climb.

Healing with Intention

Welcome back to Weak Daze, the podcast about self-discovery, getting it out of the mud, and creating your own path when the world doesn’t hand you one. I’m your host, Kenn (@thahippiehistorian), and in this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to heal with intention. It’s one thing to say you’re on a healing journey—it’s another to move with purpose through that process. From setting boundaries to breaking patterns, we’re unpacking how intentional healing isn’t always pretty or easy, but it's necessary if you're serious about growth. This one’s for anyone tired of surface-level self-care and ready to do the deeper work. Tap in and reflect with me.
