  • Mary is the best ❤️

    I’ve been following Mary on social media platforms for years and I’m soooo so happy that she decided to make a podcast.

I have such a soft spot in my heart for Mary because she makes me feel much more seen than any other creator. I also love her tidbits of advice from her therapist!! This is a must listen f... more

  • Authentic

    I love that she talks about her mental health and daily life unapologetically. Social media seems to drone on now about who’s buying this or dating who or getting canceled. I listen to her podcasts and feel like I’m sitting with a friend. Very enriching and concise; always entertaining. Totally recommend !

  • My Personal Reset Time

    A follower since the beginning, I absolutely love listening to Prologues every week, especially when I have time to listen each Monday. It really does help me to reset myself for the week and always reminds me that I’m never alone in any of my struggles as someone with mental health challenges, as a woman, as a 20-something, and just as a person. I don’t know how she does it, but Mary always has something relatable and timely that resonates with my own life. It doesn’t matter what structure, top... more

  • Delusional and pointless

    A narcissist who talks about herself ad nauseam on every episode. What value does this add to the world? Absolutely nothing. Futile surface level nonsense.
