We Love You (And So Can You)

Beloved listeners! We Love You may be coming to an end, but rest assured: We are not leaving you high and dry! Kristen hosts another advice show we think you'll enjoy. It's called Movie Therapy with Rafer and Kristen. In each episode, Rafer and Kristen offer questionable advice and solid movie (and TV) recommendations for whatever ails you. We're putting this episode of the show in the WLY feed today. If you like it, please subscribe to it on your podcast app!

Kristen and Jolenta check in with Tiara, who moved across the country to follow her boyfriend, rather than following her own dreams. She was a master at going out and meeting people, but now that everyone's staying at home... how's all that going? Plus, we get listeners' tips for moving to a new place. Be sure to check out the podcast Tiara has been working on, NATAL: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/natal [https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/natal] and her other podcast, High, Good People: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/tiara-darnell/high-good-people?refid=stpr [https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/tiara-darnell/high-good-people?refid=stpr] And you can find Tiara’s piece in Portland Monthly here: https://www.pdxmonthly.com/news-and-city-life/2020/06/can-white-portland-s-fragility-handle-a-megaquake [https://www.pdxmonthly.com/news-and-city-life/2020/06/can-white-portland-s-fragility-handle-a-megaquake] How do you feel at home in a new town?

Early this year, Tiara picked up and moved across the country — literally! — when her boyfriend got a new job. She’s moved before, but this time is different: She’s moving for someone else’s dream, rather than her own. Can she find her place in this new town, and learn to love it all the same? How do you feel at home in a new town? Tell us about it! You can email us at weloveyoupod@gmail.com [weloveyoupod@gmail.com], or tweet at us @jolentaG, @kristenmeinzer, or @WeLoveYouPod.

Now that "normal" life is basically on hold, Kristen and Jolenta check in with Carolyn to see how she's coping. Is that to-do list still daunting? Is she finding ways to balance? Plus, a LOT of you listeners seemed to resonate with Carolyn's story! Note to listeners: This episode was recorded before the revelations of Bon Appetit's discriminatory culture and racist practices. We Love You obviously does not tolerate those viewpoints. Apologies for not catching this before the episode was released. Want to be a future guest on the show? Does your to-do list ever get out of hand? How did you learn to say no? Tell us about it! You can email us at weloveyoupod@gmail.com [weloveyoupod@gmail.com], or tweet at us @jolentaG, @kristenmeinzer, or @WeLoveYouPod. You can also leave us a voicemail at (601) LOVE-171.
