Your Story Deserves to Be Heard: Why We Created the Surreal Life Podcast

Let’s be real for a minute.

Life doesn’t always play out the way we imagined. Some of us have walked through addiction, heartbreak, toxic relationships, grief, and a whole lot of shame. And while everyone’s journey looks different, one thing remains true:

Your story matters.

That’s why we created the Surreal Life Podcast.

Why We Started This

We were tired of pretending. Tired of watching people suffer in silence. Tired of the highlight reels and the “everything’s fine” masks.

We knew what it was like to hit rock bottom. To feel invisible. To carry stories that felt too heavy to tell.

But we also knew what it was like to start healing. To feel seen. To rise up from the mess and begin again.

Surreal Life was born to be a space where those stories could live. A space where it’s okay to be messy, honest, emotional, complicated, in-progress, and beautifully real.

What We Believe

We believe in the power of storytelling. Not the filtered kind—the kind that rips the bandaid off and tells the truth.

We believe in healing out loud.

We believe that when one person is brave enough to share their journey, they unlock healing for someone else.

We believe that people—especially those who’ve lived through some sh*t—deserve more spaces to be seen, heard, and celebrated for their resilience.

And we believe that you don’t need to be famous or have it all figured out to have a story worth telling.

Wanna Be a Guest on the Show?

We’re always looking for guests who are willing to show up and share their truth. If you've lived through trauma, transformation, or just want to help others by being real about what you’ve been through—we want to hear from you.

You don’t have to have it all together. You just have to be real.
