The Dysfunctional Podcast with Grace

Hello and welcome or welcome back to the dysfunctional podcast, it's been a minute and I’ve missed talking to your guys.  I saw a tik tok recently and it inspired what we are going to be talking about today. The tik tok I saw said guarding your heart does not mean you have to numb it and I thought to myself, I could make that a podcast topic.  A common misconception among christians is that wh...

Todays episode is a bit of a vulnerable one, i’ve been pretty open about my mental health struggles on this podcast but it is something that is still hard for me to do. Recently I’ve been going through a difficult season of feeling pretty down. Every day is different but overall it’s been pretty exhausting. So I figured why not make something positive out of a generally negative thing. So today I’...

Happy 2026! 2025 was quite a year. Today I am going to be talking about some things I learned in 2025 as well as some of my goals for 2026.

 I haven’t posted in a minute and I’m sorry it’s been so long. I’ve seriously been lacking motivation in general so the idea of making a podcast outline sounded exhausting. I have been in a bit of a rut recently. I just haven’t been feeling the best so today that’s kinda what I wanted to talk about. If you are in a similar place that I am in and you feel drained, unmotivated, and just gross, I am...

Today we are going to be talking about a very important skill, filling your own cup.

So today I am going to be talking about why filling your own cup is important, as well as 10 simple ways you can fill your own cup.

Hey guys! Todays episode is a very special one to me because this is something that has taken a long time for me to share. I figured now would be the perfect time because it is mental health awareness month. Today I will be sharing my mental health journey. I would say if you were to listen to any of my podcasts, I would probably recommend this one out of all of them. If you feel similarly to how...

Today we are going to be talking about something all of us experience, change. I just started my freshman year of college so I figured this was an appropriate topic to discuss.

Today we are going to be talking about green flags. For the people who don’t know, a green flag is basically the opposite of a red flag. It’s a good sign in a relationship. Green flags can apply to romantic relationships and friendships. Today we are going to be talking about both, I am going to be sharing some of my green flags in a relationship as well as some of yours. 

Today we are going to be talking about a very common tendency that a lot of people have. For me I have had this since I was young, and that is being a people pleaser. I looked up the definition of people pleasing and according to google, a people pleaser is someone who feels a strong urge to please others, even at their own expense. Don’t get me wrong, I think putting others before yourself is an...

A couple weeks ago I got in a car accident. Don't worry everyone is ok. In this episode I am going to be telling the story of how it happened.

But I feel like all of these things are valid. Today we are going to be talking about pet peeves. In this episode, I am going to be sharing some of my pet peeves as well as some of yours.

I started writing down another outline for a different topic that was a fun one. I’ve been pretty down recently and most of the time talking about fun topics will cheer me up. But while I was making the outline it really just didn’t feel right for some reason. So today I am going to be talking about something that I am currently struggling with… self image. I’ve talked about body image before but...

Today we are going to be talking about social media. I believe social media has its pros and cons. Maybe more cons than pros. And that's the base of what we are going to be talking about today.

Summer is coming to an end and it’s getting to be that time of year. The time we are all cooped up at home, and it’s cold outside (unless it’s not where u live) This idea came to mind when I noticed a familiar feeling coming back, I couldn’t describe it but I knew what it was. I could just feel it, this is seasonal affective disorder. Today we are going to be talking about seasonal affective disor...
