For the past nine months I was unemployed. I've never talked about it on here — the anxiety, the imposter syndrome, the hundreds of job applications, the wondering if anyone would ever hire you again. Until now.

In this episode I'm talking about what it actually means to make a week feel good when life doesn't slow down enough to let you. I just started a new job, I have no free weekend until the end of September, and I'm about to leave for a girls trip in Madrid.

This one is about how to stay grounded when you can't press pause — accepting the season you're in, finding the small moments that belong to you, and why managing your attention is harder than managing your time.

Not a perfect week. Just a real one.

Three years ago I met Bibi completely randomly on a street in Copenhagen. We stayed in each other's orbit through Instagram, and this episode is the first time we actually properly sat down and got to know each other.

Bibi is originally from Lisbon, lived in Barcelona for years, spent a year in Amsterdam, and recently moved back to Lisbon. In this episode we talk about what it actually feels like to keep rebuilding your life in different cities, how each place brings out a different version of you, and what it's like to return home as someone completely different from the person who left.

We also get into freelancing, content creation, and the kind of random connections you make abroad that somehow stay in your life longer than you expect.

The last question I asked her is my favorite question I've ever asked a guest on this podcast. You'll know it when you get there.

Sphinx cats. Baby content. Elderly Japanese restaurant owners that make me want to cry. This is apparently what my FYP has decided I am.

In this episode I'm asking a question I think most of us have never stopped to consider — does the internet create who you are, or does it just find you?

I talk about the things my algorithm got completely right about me, the things it got completely wrong, the moment I almost became a very specific type of girl on the internet, and why Pinterest and TikTok are two very different kinds of knowing.

Because there's a difference between the algorithm shaping your personality and just reflecting it back at you. The question is which one is actually happening.

Have you ever been in a season where you're supposed to be resting, but all you can think about is everything else you could be doing?

In this episode, I'm talking about the tension between wanting a soft life and being naturally ambitious — wanting rest, peace and balance, but also wanting purpose, productivity, growth and something to build.

I share what this looks like for me as I prepare to start a new corporate job, figure out working fully remote, and balance a creative passion project that somehow gives me energy and makes me want to work at 11:30pm.

This one is about hustle culture, burnout, and what it actually means to take care of yourself while still wanting more from your life.

Because maybe I'm not ambitious despite having boundaries. Maybe I'm ambitious because I have them.

My brother Marcus is finally on the podcast.

In this episode, we talk about what it was like growing up in Maui, both leaving home in different directions, and how our relationship has changed as we've built separate adult lives away from the place we came from.

We get into the strange feeling of missing home while also knowing you're not meant to move back, what it means to reinvent yourself somewhere new, childhood memories, sibling dynamics, and whether we'd actually be friends if we weren't siblings.

He also shares his first memory of me. Mine of him involves lipstick. You'll understand when you get there.

Everyone starts posting online thinking it'll be fine. It is not fine.

In this episode, I sit down with Sabrina — content creator and business lawyer — who has been posting for seven years and has had videos reach over a million views.

We talk about what it actually felt like to start, why having people you know watch is scarier than strangers watching, how she kept videos on her phone for months before posting them, and what finally made her stop caring so much about who was watching.

Plus — do 16K followers feel different than she imagined? The honest answer might surprise you.

People talk about romanticizing your life like it’s an aesthetic. Matcha, linen, golden hour walks.

But I think it’s actually something else entirely.

In this episode, I talk about a moment I had on a flight going through old photos — realizing I was romanticizing memories I wasn’t even fully present for when I was living them. I also share a piece of advice someone gave me during the hardest winter of my life that I will genuinely never forget.

Does romanticizing your life actually make you happier? I think it can — but not for the reason most people think.

Lucky Girl Syndrome is everywhere. Girls swearing that walking around expecting good things to happen actually makes them happen. And honestly? I can't fully decide if it's genius or unhinged.

In this episode I share why I think there's actually something real in it — including a memory from when I was 14 sitting on a playground in Copenhagen that I still think about. Plus where I think it completely falls apart and what I actually believe the whole thing is really about.

You know you've become a local somewhere the day you stop using Google Maps.

Today I'm talking about how a new place actually starts to feel like home — not one big moment, but small things repeating until they add up. The metro you used to fear. The cafe that knows your face, not your name. A street you no longer need a map for.

If you've ever moved somewhere new and wondered when it would feel like yours — this one's for you.

Today’s episode is a little lighter, a little more opinionated, and honestly… slightly hypocritical.

I’m talking about things I think are overrated — from “that girl” routines and the 5AM club to cold plunges, dating apps, situationships, LinkedIn culture, and the idea that your 20s are automatically the best years of your life.

Some I respect. Some I do. Some I simply cannot get behind.

It’s not that deep. Welcome home 🤍
