On this episode on MYC Uncensored Satini and Esta talk all about how to deal with a crush not liking you back. While it can be a very fun experience it also takes us on an emotional rollercoaster so it can be quite the journey. Some activities like journalling or doing what you are passionate about can be very helpful to distract yourself. Along with this, talking to friends and family can be a good idea to let it all out and to acknowledge the fact that you are not alone.
Do you remember your first crush? How did you deal with it? Let us know!

On this episode on MYC Uncensored we recognise International LGBTQIA+ Pride Day and talk all about how to communicate to your parents or guardians about your sexuality. We discuss ways to educate yourself about your sexuality and ways to tell your parents eg "hey guys there is something I want to tell you, I am Bi". This way it opens a conversations which can help young people express and educate others about their own sexuality. We then discuss how parents may react which will look different depending their own religion, culture or own morals. However, despite these reactions we encourage, support and empower the young person to express their true self by being open about their own sexuality. However, even if you are not part of the LGBTQIA+ community we discuss how to be an ally which can empower this community. Have you or your friends have been through this situation?. If so, share it with us!!!
