Welcome to A Balanced Reality podcast with your hosts, Jasmine and Grace! This introductory episode is to get the listeners to know the hosts, provide a little background (not how they met because they don't remember), and hopefully answers your burning question: what is A Balanced Reality all about?
We open with Jasmine introducing herself as an artist, avid video gamer, and the host of her very own YouTube Channel, Jaxz Love, where she shares her reactions to her favorite music videos. You can find out more here.
Next, we meet Grace, who is a creative entrepreneur and owns Amethyst By Grace, an online clothing store that hopes to inspire conversations in the Black community about mental wellness. You can shop here.
With neither of the hosts remembering the exact moment they met, we move on to how this podcast came to be and what the listeners can expect each week: episodes with a variety of topics, each one promising to be as entertaining and informative as the last. The podcast was created for two purposes, 1) understanding that mental health can be a difficult topic in the Black Community, A Balanced Reality aims to use this platform to create that space of safety and, 2) your very own reality check in a flood of social media influence.
Tune in next week for a candid discussion on Expectations vs. Reality!
"Just because the world is crazy, doesn't mean you have to be!"
