A former First Lady putting her story to publication may not be unusual, but Melania Trump's memoir feels hotly anticipated.

What's a soft voter? Are there any election policies centered around women? If I care about the environment, who should I vote for? How many of us are early voting, and how will that impact getting a result on election day?

Yes, we're back!
With Biden now President-Elect, Mia and Amelia are back with a special episode of Tell Me It’s Going To Be OK.
While we may have stopped the show in December of 2018 because our mental health couldn’t take it any more, we’re bringing it back for you today, because it seems like it maybe…just maybe is going to be OK….
