Are you Type A or just running on iced coffee and anxiety? In this episode, we unpack the whole “Type A vs Type B” personality thing: why some of us can’t stop planning, and others are just trying to vibe. We talk stress, success, burnout, and how to find your sweet spot between doing the most and doing nothing. Grab your planner… or don’t. Either way, you’ll feel seen.

[Disclaimer]: We want to emphasize that this podcast is not meant to serve as or substitute professional mental health services or consultations. We are just doing this for fun and to start a more open dialogue about mental health.
