Season 1 Episode 2 | Whew, this is a lot! For years I have remained guarded and have only shared the pieces of me that I felt safe to do so.

Season 1 Episode 1 | Survivor's remorse is when a person has feelings of guilt because they survived a life-threatening situation when others did not. The truth is, that same type of guilt can bleed into our day to day lives as we experience our own ascension and those we love perhaps are still figuring things out -- and sometimes even making us feel bad for how much we have accomplished. How do we navigate those seasons in our lives and the ever-changing dynamics with friends and loved ones as a result of our success? Come sit on my couch for a conversation with my dear friend, Isaac Carree, about experiencing survivor's remorse.Follow Isaac: https://www.instagram.com/ikenice/Follow KIPS: https://www.instagram.com/keepitpositivesweetie/KIPS is produced and executive produced by Dinorah Peña, co-produced by Chanel Gross.
