Unpacking Me
Unpacking Me: Unpacking the parts of Trauma no one talks about!
A raw and honest podcast where we dive deep into the experiences that shaped us—the pain, the healing, and everything in between.
Hosted by Nicky and Mernelle, we explore the unspoken struggles of trauma, mental health, and self-discovery, creating a space for real conversations that many shy away from.
We’re here to unpack the baggage we’ve carried, challenge the narratives we’ve been told, and break cycles that no longer serve us. Whether you’re on your own healing journey, seeking connection, or just need a space where vulnerability is welcomed—you belong here.
Join us as we share our personal stories, unpack the past, and navigate the messy yet beautiful process of growth. Let’s do the work, together.

Jealousy, or Something Deeper? The Truth About Anxiety and Depression
Jealousy, or Something Deeper? The Truth About Anxiety and Depression
Translating misunderstood mental health labels into real issues.
Is it really jealousy—or is it depression in disguise?
In this episode, we explore how emotions like sadness, irritability, or withdrawal are often mislabeled as jealousy or “hating,” especially within marginalized communities. But what if what you're seeing isn’t envy—it’s a cry for help masked by anxiety or depression?
We dive into how mental health struggles are frequently misunderstood, dismissed, or shamed, and the deep impact that stigma has on people of color and other underserved groups. Let’s have the conversation that too often gets silenced—and start recognizing the pain behind the labels.
