First Guest! Featuring My Best Friend Ducharme | BPD Diaries Ep.7

Straight Up Zoe

*Be compassionate, curious and caring*. Quote by Ducharme.

In this heartfelt and powerful episode of Straight Up Zoe, I’m joined by my very first guest—and best friend—Ducharme. Together, we explore deep and meaningful conversations about his work in homicide support, living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), the role of faith in healing, and the beautiful chaos of everyday life.

From family and friendship to mental health and spiritual growth, this episode is real, raw, and rooted in compassion. Ducharme’s wisdom, honesty, and heart shine through every moment. We talk about the importance of showing up for others, navigating grief, choosing curiosity over judgment, and finding hope in the hard places.

This isn’t just a conversation—it’s a journey through vulnerability, resilience, and connection. Whether you’re going through something heavy or just need a reminder that you’re not alone, this episode will speak to your soul.

A special message to Ducharme: Thank you for being my Bestie. You are my biggest supporter and I wouldn’t be doing this podcast right now if it weren’t for you. I’m so excited to share this conversation with the world, as everyone will get to see just how incredible and kind you are—not only to me, but to everyone you meet.

Thank you Ducharme.
