Conversations that make room for what often goes unsaid.

The Space We Were Looking For

The Soft Parts was created because we were asking the same questions so many of us quietly carry. And it’s not because we have all the answers.

Somewhere between who we’ve been and who we’re becoming, there are conversations we rarely have out loud; about identity, relationships, ambition, healing, culture, friendship, loneliness, purpose, and the uncertainty of growing into ourselves. This podcast is our invitation to slow down, stay curious, and make room for those conversations together.

What You’ll Find Here

Identity | Relationships | Healing | Ambition | Mental Health | Culture | Creativity | Friendship | Purpose | Vulnerability

Every conversation begins with curiosity.

As a licensed therapist and a licensed physician assistant, our professional backgrounds naturally shape the way we approach the world. We care deeply about evidence, psychology, health, and human behavior, but this isn’t a lecture, and it isn’t therapy. It’s two friends bringing both their lived experiences and their professions to honest conversations about what it means to be human.

Some episodes will explore identity, relationships, healing, ambition, culture, attachment, grief, and mental health. Others may wander into books, philosophy, current events, creativity, or the quiet moments that change us in ways we don’t always notice until much later.

We believe that thoughtful conversations, ones rooted in both compassion and curiosity, have the power to help us understand ourselves and each other a little better.
