Description
Whoopsie Daisy is a podcast about teenagers and their experiences growing up. I will be asking teenagers to tell their stories about the highs and lows of adolescence and how those stories continue to shape them. There's no road map on how to survive being a teenager, or what to expect, because everyone grows up with a unique circumstances. This podcast serves as an open place to tell our stories. We aren't complete people yet. We are learning, but we are learning together.
