Painfully Self-Aware

1.) If you're gallivanting around the globe without me right now, how dare you 2.) My "attainable luxuries" lifestyle led me to delusion and I made a huge mistake thinking I could redeem and pull off transitional lenses... 3.) I share some brief thoughts and no spoiler reviews of Barbie and Oppenheimer @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast www.painfullyselfawarepodcast.com

I'm 26 today and feeling too introspective for my own good. On today's episode, I share all the details of why I disappeared for a year and a half (my bad) and how I'm doing now. (Spoiler - I had to break up with my old counselor and get on meds lol) I missed you all and I am soooo thankful and excited to be back! LOVE YOU!!! @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast MERCH - www.painfully...

First of all... I MISSED YOU GUYS! On today's episode, I am joined by my favorite author and dear friend, Jessa Hastings. We chat about her first two books in the MPU, Jessie's creativity and brilliant attention detail, and the upcoming release of her newest book, Magnolia Parks: The Long Way Home.  I love you, Jessie! If I ever create anything in my life that impacts someone as much as these book...

MISSED YOU! And you know I'm a SUCKER for New Year's resolutions so I couldn't resist. I'm feeling optimistic about this year (scary) and in suuuuch a good place after my dramatic hiatus. Love you! Happy New Year!  @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast

This week is a heavy one. I share a bit more into the grief I am walking through surrounding the life I thought I would be living, the dreams and doors that have closed, how much I feel my depression has taken from me, and the fear of never being content with my life. Thank you for listening, reaching out, and for your kindness! I love ya! @painfullyselfawarepodcast @mollylee31

We rounded out Spooky szn with a double header of "The Witches". I have to say.... I was underwhelmed even though I liked both? How does that make sense? It just wasn't the way to end our month of Halloween fun.. and that one is on me. Also, Anne Hathaway's accent in the remake will haunt me for years to come.

My sister Lexie (the queen of spooky szn) joins me to talk about my FAVORITE Halloween movie... HOCUS POCUS! Plz keep your slander to YOURSELF. She is perfect and we love her. Community Ranking: 8.5/10 My Ranking: 8.9/10 Lexie's Ranking: 9.2/10 Movie Next Week: The Witches double header! 1990 & 2020 remake! @painfullyselfawarepodcast @mollylee31 @sexxiieelexxiiee

The Haunted Mansion is a 2003 CLASSIC (that they're choosing to re-do soon for some odd reason...) Eddie Murphy is just as delightful and funny in this film as when I was younger.  Community Ranking: 7.2/10 My Ranking: 7.1/10  Movie Next Week: HOCUS POCUS!!!

This is the most important topic we could talk about on the podcast. DISNEY CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIES! They have gone downhill SO FAST in recent years. As part of our duty to society and encouraging the youths to follow the right path, here is my list of my top 6 favorite Disney Channel Original Movies. Go with God, brothers. @painfullyselfawarepodcast @mollylee31

SPOOKY SZN IS HERE!!! We started off with a classic. I had my sister send in her thoughts since she is the QUEEN of Halloween! Our movie next week is The Haunted Mansion. Community Ranking: 8.4/10 Personal Ranking: 5.7/10 Lexie's Ranking: 8.75/10

The Lord has done something cool in my life and I wanted to share with you all about it! God is gracious and kind and I'm so grateful. Love you! @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast

YOU DON'T OWN MEEEE! Simply iconic! This is my ultimate comfort movie and I'm so glad to be in the company of others who feel the same.  Community Ranking: 9.4/10 My Ranking: 9.2/10 Movie Next Week: Halloweentown (Happy October!!!)

(Rants 2.0) HELLO? LORD? WHAT IS MY LIFE? I DO NOT HAVE THE CAPACITY OR STRENGTH TO KEEP FACING BATTLES LIKE THIS. I HAD TO SPEND MY NIGHT CHASING MY DOG AROUND WITH A DEAD POSSUM IN HIS MOUTH WHILE THE NEIGHBORS PROBABLY SLANDERED ME ON FACEBOOK. This is the best I can give you this week. Pray, Church! @painfullyselfawarepodcast @mollylee31

I do not have enough time to tell you how horrendous I found this remake to be. Everything was such a failed attempt at being relevant and it was beyond cringe. I am just mainly sorry that we all had to endure it this week. AND let's stop remaking Cinderella! We've had ENOUGH!!!!!!!!! Community Ranking: 1.7/10  Personal Ranking: 2.4/10 (Gave them a full point for not casting Shawn Mendes as the pr...

Hello! I haven't done a proper introduction in a while and we have lots of new faces around here. ALSO, I'm starting a new job tomorrow so I know there will be coworkers and bosses creeping.... so this felt right. In this episode, I give an overview of my life and how the podcast started. I end with some personal questions that people on instagram asked a few weeks back! @painfullyselfawarepodcast...

Shutter Island has so many layers and I LOVE IT. I broke down my interpretation of the two main theories what the ending means for the movie and shared some moments throughout that affirm or challenge which side you are on. Official Podcast Score: 8.3/10 Personal Score: 8.4/10 Movie Next Week: Camilla Cabello's Cinderella (Prime Video)

LISTEN... This isn't a podcast encouraging a lot of new-agey buffoonery. I am actually talking about the importance of protecting the peacefulness of your life and the spiritual aspects of that. It is a short and sweet one this week! LOVE YOU! xx @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast

MARTHA JOINS US THIS WEEK! She requested to be on the pod and who am I to say no to my own mother. We chat about her job as a funeral director, weird moments in her job, and dealing with difficult people. I just really love her.  @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast

This week is a fun one! I am joined by two of the biggest reality TV lovers in my life- my sister Lexie and our bestie Slade Terry. All I can say is... it's a mess. The whole thing. We were having so much fun ranking our favorite shows until Slade had the audacity to bring the P-Bros into it... @painfullyselfawarepodcast @mollylee31 @sexxiieelexxiiee @sladeorade

On this week's episode, we are having a MANDATORY TEAM MEETING! There could be some major changes (fun changes) to PSA starting as soon as next month but I NEED YOUR INPUT AND HELP! You are officially part of the Think Tank. Welcome. I also round out the episode this week with a conversation about identity and purpose. It has been burning on my brain and heart recently. I hope it helps. It was a t...

I can't believe we are already one year in! I am so so beyond grateful. On this episode I'm kinda in my feels (sorry). I share some advice and encouragement on starting your own podcast, moments I've loved from the show, and end with a segment on Olympic sports that are dumb & sports or activities I think should be in the Olympics.  @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast

I'M BACK AND I MISSED YOU ALL SO MUCH! This week's episode is PACKED! I start by sharing my love for the Olympics, my accidental broadcasting coverage via instagram, and moments you need to catch up on. I also share my thoughts on Simone Biles' brave and difficult decision to pull herself from the gymnastics events. Lexie also joins me for the end of the episode where I recapped an embarrassing mo...

After a week off the grid I am back to recap my weekend chauffeuring my mom and her best friends to a Beastie Boys cover band concert (which included me accidentally getting high) and ends with a long conversation about body image, positive self-talk, and the implications of the media. @mollylee31 @painfullyselfawarepodcast

I have a new mission in life. This time it's SERIOUS, YOU GUYS!!! I know what you're thinking... "Don't you always start 10 projects that you never finish and have 12 dead hobbies and move on from things quickly?" First of all.... rude. Second of all... that's why I need your help. I'm suffocating in my small town and I need Trader Joe's to have a store in Abilene. This will be my life's work. On...
