Finding Your Wave

In Episode 6, I’m speaking with Tazima Paris, a pleasure mentor. She believes that proactively seeking the things that make us feel good will result in a more successful and fulfilled life thus bettering humanity itself. Tazima discusses harnessing our feminine superpowers when it comes to understanding ourselves, what pleases us in all senses of the word, and of course, sex. In this explicit episode, we dive in deep and have a lot of fun along the way.

In episode 5, I’m speaking with Allison E. Lang, an incredible young woman who was born missing the lower half of one of her legs, who once was severely bullied yet has now channeled adversity into empowerment. Allison has since surfed, descended into an active volcano, and has two university degrees. Her vulnerability and her will to seek comfort in her discomfort and speak up to help others struggling from lack of self-esteem or self-worth is incredibly inspiring. She and I discuss embracing our differences, the mainstream media’s depiction of beauty and our hopes for the industry to continue to evolve.

In episode 4, I’m speaking with Mel Vandersluis, a travel photographer and content creator. Travel has transformed her life and inspires her to be the best version of herself. Mel gives her advice about content creation, entrepreneurship and using her platform to make a positive change, one step at a time.

In episode 3, I’m speaking with my very own life and business partner, Mauricio Padilla. Together, we dive deep into our relationship, how we met, how we created hinter, and what we see for its future. Mauricio shares some valuable lessons he’s learned in business, and we talk about how we have helped each other grow.

In episode 2, I’m speaking with Arti Jalan, the founder of Forage and Sustain, a beautifully curated platform that focuses on sustainability, transparency and inclusion, and shares these messages with kindness and openness. As a woman of colour, Arti dives into the intersectionality between sustainability and race. She and I discuss balancing feminine and masculine energies, imperfect sustainability and starting a business. Then, she answers my weekly question, “What does finding your wave mean to you?”

In Episode 1, I’m speaking with Chantal Stafford-Abbott, the founder of The Deep Space, who also works as a fashion model. Chantal has created a safe space for deep human connection which has been especially needed during the pandemic. She and I discuss self-esteem, balance, being sensitive, and finding purpose in life. Then, she answers my weekly question, “What does finding your wave mean to you?”

Finding your wave is about navigating through the ins and outs, ups and downs of life, personal growth, relationships, entrepreneurship and sustainability- All while trying to find our own unique paths, our gifts to give to the world. 

I’m your host, Emily Padan, a teacher turned 2x entrepreneur on a mission to live a life with impact. I believe that we are all multifaceted humans who grow and evolve to learn and create. 

We’re all on our own unique journeys, constantly learning and growing, but somehow, we all have something in common; we’re striving to be the best versions of ourselves and trying to find our magic to give to the world. Through real chats with real people, we dive in, and we go deep.

Life comes in waves…now let’s find yours.
