**Prologues**

My name is Mary and I’m the host of Prologues, a lifestyle podcast where each episode is like a digital journal entry detailing whatever it is I’m going through in life at the moment. I talk about my journey with mental health, relationships, wellness, beauty, personal development, and more, so join me every Monday morning for a reminder that we’re all still figuring out life for the first time, and you are still in the beginning of your personal story.

You Can't Fail If You Never Try! Jul 07, 2025

Show notes

Why is it that I always feel the most motivated to change my life when I'm not in the position to do anything about it? This week I explore the fact that, actually, I am just afraid! Other topics include my childhood relationship with food and giving my husband a film education to prove to him that women are funnier than men. Obviously.

How To Feel Sexy & Confident May 19, 2025

Show notes

Women aren't really taught to feel sexy - to sexualize ourselves, sure, but to feel sexy for our own empowerment? Not really. Due to my upbringing in high-control religion, my relationship with my sexuality and confidence has always been layered. I feel I've swung to both extremes of the spectrum at times, before finally landing where I am now.
