Welcome to another episode of Mental Health Multiverse: A podcast where we mindfully break down your pop culture favs and discuss them through the lens of self care, mental health, and personal development.
This week on MHM we are talking about Disney/Pixar’s LUCA, a coming-of-age story about a sea monster navigating a new world with new friends, new experiences and new obstacles.
Questions, themes, and topics we touch on include:
Representation for marginalized groups
Luca's journey from being a sheltered sea monster curious about the human world to finding friendship, acceptance, and his own path on the surface
Understanding personal identity within relationships
Identity and self-discovery
The power of friendship, belonging, and acceptance
Tackling your inner Bruno while channeling your inner Guilia
How we relate to each character
Navigating self-doubt vs intuition
And more!
