It’s been a couple of years since we came out of the pandemic and a lot has changed. Life as we know it during COVID wasn’t anything like we’ve ever gone through. Being a nurse during that period was an experience none of us will ever forget. Ralph discusses life during COVID as a nurse and a photographer. This is Ralph’s story of how he got into photography and his influences in life becoming a nurse. He was on the front lines as he worked in a designated COVID unit. We get an insight into how he got into wedding photography before nursing and how his passion for the arts opened new doors as an entrepreneur. He shares stories of how it’s not too late to chase your passion and start your own business. He takes us on what it’s like to balance two separate careers. I’m excited for you to join us in this episode and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Part 2 of 2 of the new grad series, and on this episode I’m hanging out with Joseph. He walks through his experience as a new graduate nurse going into the ICU. Joseph gives his advice and what is helping him physically and mentally to get through his first few months as an ICU nurse. We dive deep into his family roots and the influences that he had growing up that led him to his nursing career. We learn about his past, the roadblocks, the challenges and detours he made along the way to get into the nursing program. We talk life, purpose, and really finding yourself in those early twenties and how time really molds us to become resilient. We reflect and share the struggles of a student and how it made us understand that things don’t always go as planned. He gives us insight into the importance of really working on a passion that you love and having a work-life balance. So, if you’re ready to see through his lens, tune in, as we take you through Joseph’s journey.

It's an enjoyable and wildly entertaining show on this week’s episode as I sit down with Gleezusfeedsus. We look at how he's living and his experience playing multiple sports (basketball, ultimate frisbee, and tennis). A food reviewer and a world traveller, Glenn talks about his journey and how he’s battled through injuries and shares how he's recovered from it. We discussed health and how he’s been able to stay active. We talk about travel, culture and identity. He reflects on his travel to the homeland and growing up as a Filipino-Canadian and what he’s learned through travelling alone, only knowing the basic Filipino language. It was great to finally get the person who influenced me to start a podcast on the show, while also learning even more about his life story. I hope you guys enjoy as much as I have in this episode!
