Grow With The Flow

sometimes, the biggest thing holding you back is yourself. this makes it difficult to grow and build the life YOU want. today, i discuss everything that goes on in my mind. from negative self-talk, my excessive need for control, to blocking myself from having meaningful relationships. join me as i realize that i (we) need help😀🕺🏻 a very raw episode for this one, hope y’all enjoy :)

oftentimes, it’s difficult for us to share what we feel and be vulnerable about it due to the possibility of getting hurt. however, this hinders us from being our most authentic self and can stunt ourselves from personal growth. tune in as tiara and i discuss why we mask our emotions, its effect on us, ways to be comfortable in being vulnerable, and many more! it’s been awhile since i had someone on the podcast, but i hope this can help those who are struggling in some way :)

after months of doing school online and being cooped up at home for a whole year, life can look just like how it was during the pandemic. there were times where i feel stuck, demotivated, and most commonly, anxious. today, i flashback on the things that happened the past 4-5 months ago, discuss what it feels like to go through a pandemic personally, broke down factors that contribute to my academic anxiety, and share ways on how i deal with it. new episodes coming along your way; hope y’all enjoy!

yup, you guessed it. today, i casually chatted about life and my well-being so far. from uni, to my non-existent social-life, listen in as i talk about it all lmao. haven't done an unfiltered episode in a while, so enjoy! :D

as i’m entering university very soon, i decided to answer your guys’ questions about everything related to university that i wish someone would’ve told me during high school. join me as i discuss my personal struggles applying to different universities, understanding different application systems, debunking the stigma about community colleges, why you should definitely use uni agents, and more! hope y’all had a good listen!

years of friendship has led us to question whether we could still be dependable towards each other despite our limitations. with a couple of misunderstandings and tons of disputes, join tiara, val, and i as we watch our friendship and sanity crumble for carbonara :) make sure to check out this VIDEO podcast episode on spotify for better engagement. you guys ask, we deliver. hope y’all had a good laugh/migrane <3

oftentimes, we think of bad habits as something harmless. though untreated, they can jeopardize one’s health and limit oneself from accomplishing their goals. from identifying and recognizing one's bad habits, setting low aims, forming commitments, to cutting down one’s triggers, today, i share ways on how to achieve a healthier lifestyle by replacing bad habits with good ones! it’s been a while since i did a heart-to-heart episode, so hope you guys enjoyed this one!

there were some sorrow, emptiness, and disappointments last year, but if anything, 2022 has given me plenty of (good) plot twists. from school, health, to even my personal life, nothing ever went the way i wanted it to; but because of this, i am reminded to always expect the unexpected.

with various surprising turn of events, i often doubt myself and the path that i’m in; but with every doubt, i gained resilience. it is at these moments that i am reminded of who should take the pen and continue my story instead. sometimes i have to let go and let God be in control. and as the story persists, 2022 has turned all my graves into gardens. it takes immense courage to have faith in an ending i wouldn’t know or ever expect it to be, but that is where faith comes in, and where the beauty of uncertainty lies.

i want to take this time to thank everyone i know in my life. whether you played a role in my life or not, whether we know or communicate with each other or not, thank you for simply existing. it is at these moments that i realize some people that are most distant or close to you can be your own blessing in disguise.

so, entering this year, pretty late into 2023, i reflect back on experiences and lessons i’ve learned throughout the course of 2022. it’s been awhile since i posted a wholesome, heart-to-heart episode, so i hope you guys enjoy this one <3

keep your head high, face forward into the future, and cheers to a new year full of new challenges and learning experiences up ahead!
