Beyond Rock Bottom episodes

  • Episode 5 - You Kept Yourself Alive

    This episode is about learning to outgrow the method without shaming the need by taking responsibility for what survival cost without hating the person who survived. Through gaming, overachievement, humor, and hyper-independence, this episode explores the coping mechanisms that may hurt us now but once gave us relief, identity, and community.

  • Episode 4 - When Existing is the Work

    In Episode 4, I reflect on losing structure during COVID, trying to keep up with Caltech from India, and measuring survival against the person I used to be.

    When Existing Is the Work explores disrupted routines, self-compassion, and a quieter kind of permission: not lowering the ceiling forever, but moving the floor close enough to stand on today.

    Content note: depression, burnout, disrupted sleep, and difficulty with basic self-care.
