About

Hello Lovely and Welcome to the Ratchet Pep Talks Podcast! I am so glad you are here. I am your host, Jen Liro. Ratchet Pep Talks is a podcast dedicated to motivating you to be your best self, overcoming anxiety, imposter syndrome and learning to truly believe in yourself - but with a little bit of sass. Think Issa Dee from Insecure hyping herself up in the mirror, but without the rapping. Or your favorite auntie or bestie "getting you together" while acknowledging that you are still and will always be,THAT GIRL.

Born during a time of personal adversity and hardship, Ratchet Pep Talks was created to first empower and inspire myself to get out of a "funk". Encouraging myself to get up and move forward even when I didn't (and don't) feel my best. I figured if I needed this type of "duh, in your face"reminder that I'm THAT GIRL, then someone else might need it too. We will cover deep topics such as mental health, anxiety, depression and overall wellness. However, there will be an "unserious" and comedic element with pop culture references to lighten the conversation.

Podcast episodes will be published on Mondays and end with the Monday Motto: have a good week, don't be weak.
