EPISODE 11 🎙️
LET'S TALK ABOUT BEAUTY

Does society merely value appearances? Should we treat someone differently because of how they look?

In a culture where idealised beauty standards are frequently dictated and those with nice faces always have a competitive edge, embracing our individuality and our unique qualities that we often perceive to be ugly will make us stand out and become more beautiful.

EPISODE 7 🎙️
"YES, I AM AN INTROVERT"

To live the life of an introvert is like experiencing a whole different perspective in life—less social interaction and finding happiness in solitude.

People should really learn how to accept and understand introverts just the way they are, and do not force them to be like someone that they are not just to fit in an extroverted world.

We gotchu, introvert peeps! Listen to our 7th episode here:

Studying in the new normal education is somehow putting a strain on students' mental health considering their learning environment and loaded activities. Thus, always keep in mind that your mental health has to be your priority. Taking care of your well-being enables you to function and participate well in class. YOUR MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS.

One year ago today, our first episode on Behind The Grit was listened to by very few listeners (mostly our closest friends) on Anchor and Spotify and surprisingly, it was followed by more and more episodes.

At first, we were just souls searching for an escape from the noise of the world. We just want to express our thoughts and share our battlecries without any judgement from others and YES, a year ago today, we found that safe place in podcast—Behind The Grit podcast and the rest is history. Now, who would have thought that we will be celebrating our 1st anniversary? BTG had really come a long way and it was all worth it.

Happy 1st Anniversary, BTG! 🎉

Thank you to our listeners, guests (soon), and to all the people who are rooting for us since we started this podcast. We really appreciate your love and support. 💖 Cheers to more ingay and kwentuhan on our podcast!

Lovelots,

Raqs, Nins, and Sharie
