Somewhere Between Disappearing & Giving Grace

Somewhere Between Disappearing & Giving Grace

She’s backkkkk in my best Sexyy Red voice — wow y’all, it’s really been a minute. I wish I had a dramatic reason for disappearing, but honestly? Life got heavy, and I needed to be still. This episode is all about the guilt we feel when we take a break, why hustle culture makes rest feel like failure, and what it actually means to give yourself some grace. How disappearing doesn’t mean you failed — it means you paused Let’s talk about going ghost, coming back, and not apologizing for needing space. If you’ve ever felt bad about stepping away, this one’s for you. - xo, Jaelyn ig - @byjaelyniman click here for everything else! [https://jaelyniman.wixsite.com/jaelyniman/landing-page]

Somewhere Between a Diary and the Internet - #002

This week on Somewhere Between, we’re getting real about being too real on the internet. Once upon a time, we were just posting blurry sunsets and cheesy quotes, but now… your diary has an audeince, a comment section, and might even spark a brand deal. Today's talk is about how vulnerability became a whole aesthetic, why we feel the need to say everything out loud, and how that might not always be the safest move. I hope you enjoy this episode and the gems I dropped for you. Until next time - xo, Jaelyn. ig - @byjaelyniman the blog -⁠ https://shorturl.at/70DTs ⁠ [https://shorturl.at/70DTs]

Somewhere Between My Old Life and New Life - #001

Welcome to Somewhere Between—the podcast for the twenty-something Black girl figuring it all out in real-time. This is a space for those of us caught between who we are and who we’re becoming. Right now, I’m deep in that in-between. I know I want more for myself but getting there? That’s the part no one really talks about. This episode is all about navigating that uncertain space where you're no longer where you were, but not quite where you want to be. It’s frustrating, humbling, and if I’m being honest, has me questioning everything. Did I make the right choices? Is this just a lesson in patience? Through stories, reflections, and a little bit of humor, we’re figuring it out together—because life may not come with a guide, but at least we have each other <3 - xo, Jaelyn. ig - @byjaelyniman the blog - https://shorturl.at/70DTs [https://shorturl.at/70DTs]
