  • A Chapter Of New Beginnings

    The last episode of 2022 is a little monologue of everything one could have experienced in a year. The highs, lows, ups, and downs. It's been a rollercoaster of a year but we have evolved with time. Through this short episode, I'd like to help you realize some of the realizations I've had and hope that you can reflect on those same lines as you hit the end of this year.

    More power and love to you all.

  • Bonus: If I Disappeared Today (Poem)

    If I Disappeared Today is a poem I wrote that expresses the hurting wishes of a partner who was left wounded from a devastating relationship. The partner contemplates if his disappearance would mean anything and if he would be remembered better if he were gone. Eventually, he understands that he already knows his answer and he cannot do this to himself. So he decides to bury all the pieces and move on for good. He will hope to find peace. And that he wouldn't run away.

    As I continue to learn to write poems, I hope that these little bonus episodes are enjoyable.

    More power and love to you all.

  • The Art Of Doing More

    The 55th episode of the podcast is a little reminder that if you want to be more than what you are today, you have to do more than what you do today.

    With subtle references. this episode will remind you of the fact that you need to explore and spread your roots before you begin the upwards journey. Horizontal growth is equally important as vertical growth.

    More power and love to you all.

  • The Friends We've Lost

    The 54th episode talks about the friendships we've lost over the course of time. It is such a hard feeling to describe as we balance the boundaries of expectations vs reality. This heartfelt episode is a message from me to you to help think about all those friends you've lost in touch with and still feel like they're your best mates.

    As we reach the midway of December, I hope that you take the time and reflect on not just your love life, but your friendships and the people you've lost this year. More power and love to you all.

  • The Power Of Waiting: Delayed Gratification

    We live in a world of instant gratification. The phone rings and you've instantly bombarded with so much information that you're brain never gets the time to really switch off. 

    The 53rd episode talks about the reality of instant gratification and how waiting is actually more powerful than it is. It's a very simple concept yet something we've forgotten.

    As December begins, I hope that things slow down and you get the time to process everything that's happened in your life. More power and love to you all.

  • You Deserve Better

    The 52nd episode emphasizes the message that you deserve better things. You don't deserve to settle and make compromises. It's possible that you have no choice. It's possible that you're bound in chains. But you need to know your worth. Because then you will always be looking for a way out. You can't stay like this forever, so don't. 

    More power and love to you all.

  • Like All Things, This Too Shall Pass

    The 6th season of the podcast starts with a very reassuring message that you're doing okay. Everything that is troubling you, will eventually pass. Like all things do, both good and bad. 

    If you're feeling a little out of place, remember that you're doing the best you can, even if it doesn't feel like it.

    More power and love to you all.

  • 11:11

    On 11/11/21, I released my first episode of the podcast. It's crazy to think that 50 episodes later, I'll be sitting here wondering if the universe wanted this to happen to me. Every day I'm a little more grateful to be able to have a medium through which I can express myself to the world.

    So what if I'm not reaching millions? So what if I only have a few 100 good followers? As long as there's one person eagerly waiting for my episodes, I'm giving into the world what it has given to me.

    So as I start the next year of my podcast, I intend to be more consistent and put more effort into refining this podcast into a library of reassurances for everyone who seems to want a little help with their thoughts.

    We got this.

    I'm really grateful for all the good people who follow this podcast and I hope when you look back at the end of the year, I would've made a small difference in your lives.

  • Bonus Episode: The Magnificence of The Mountains

    Technically, it is the 50th episode but it reads bonus episode for a reason! It's not Canon!

    This episode narrates my experience at a Himalayan Trek, Hampta Pass. It is an odd 20 min long episode but if you're a travel freak, you may like listening to this while in transit. 

    The Himalayas is a beautiful place; no matter where you are in this world, you should visit these mountain ranges. They're special. They're deformed. They're an ecosystem of their own. 

    Lessons and psychological connections from this experience will follow in some other episode, within 5 minutes of course :P 

    Have a great day

    Ciao.

  • You Only Score The Shots You Take

    We keep talking about not being able to have our way with the things we want, but often, it's because we haven't even tried to. Trying is not equal to success but if you don't try, you 100% won't be able to get what you want. 

    This episode, although a short one, touches upon some things I want to remind myself of when it feels like I'm backing away from something I wanted all along.
