About This Podcast
Welcome to "High" Functioning — the unfiltered audio diary of a 31-year-old wife, cat mom of two, and certified pothead just trying to make it through life one random thought at a time. Whether I'm overthinking the universe, ranting about daily chaos, or deep-diving into why my cats are probably judging me, this is your cozy corner for high thoughts and functional living. Light one up, chill out, and let's vibe through the weird, the funny, and the surprisingly profound moments of day-to-day life.
