In this intimate solo episode of Deeply Well, Devi opens up about a part of her story — the journey from broadcast journalism to the creation of this very podcast, which began as Dropping Gems. What started as a shift in career eventually became a full-circle return to her truth.

Devi reflects on what it meant to unlearn the polished performance of traditional media and reclaim her authentic voice, one rooted in softness, presence, and real connection. This episode is an offering for anyone who’s ever felt the call to pivot, to let go of perfection, and to trust their own becoming.

She speaks candidly about the discomfort of stepping away from who the world expected her to be, the growth that comes from choosing vulnerability, and the sacredness of showing up as your whole imperfect self. She also shares updates regarding her sabbatical, the creative projects coming soon, and some gentle wisdom about planning for the future while staying grounded in the present moment.

This is a love note to your evolution. A reminder that your path is yours alone, and that even when it feels unfamiliar or nonlinear, it is still deeply worthy and divinely guided.

In this nourishing episode of Deeply Well, Devi sits down with the radiant Andy Allo - a multi-hyphenate artist whose creativity flows through music, acting, and the sacred art of cooking. Together, we explore how storytelling shows up in various forms: in lyrics, in lineage, and in the meals we prepare for the people we love.

Andy opens up about her journey, embracing her many gifts and the spiritual connection she’s found through food, especially through her Cameroonian pop-up restaurant, Akone. With every dish, she honors her cultural legacy while creating space for healing and joy. We talk about food as prayer, as memory, and as a bridge that connects one to another.

Allo and Devi elaborate on how trusting the unknown and surrendering to divine inspiration can open doors to magic we never saw coming. Andy shares stories of working alongside icons like Prince, the power of going on “dates with God,” and the self-care rituals that keep her grounded.

Have you dedicated time to date, GOD?

We also reflect on life after death, and the final season of UPLOAD on Amazon Prime, Andy shines in this futuristic sci-fi comedy series set in 2033, that explores the digital afterlife, life’s meaning and the challenges of a romance between a living person (Nora aka Andy Allo) and an upload (Nathan aka Robbie Amell) who’s consciousness now lives on a server. It’s hilarious, but heartfelt.
