S1E2- The Masks We Wear: Navigating Grief and Identity
On this episode of Halo Halo Hotline, your resident feelers Mikaela and Laarne unpack the many masks we wear—whether we’re grieving, growing, or just trying to keep it together on a Monday. They talk about how these masks can protect us one moment and perform for us the next, all while spilling stories of loss, love, and learning to say “I’m fine” a little less.
Between laughter and card pulls (because yes, the universe always has receipts), they explore how gratitude can be a healing practice—not a fake-smile bandaid. The convo flows from migration and identity to the wild dance between grief and love, creativity and survival, and how to spot toxic positivity when it tries to crash the party.
And because the Hotline is all about keeping it real, they talk about creating spaces where we can actually take off the mask and breathe. Bonus: a few gems from the kiddos remind us that authenticity might just be child’s play after all.
Basically, it’s a soulful, giggle-filled, no-filter kind of episode—equal parts healing and hilarity, served up the Halo Halo Hotline way. ✨
