How Generic

In this episode, I’m talking about graduating soon, all the stuff I’ve accomplished, and the endless spiral of “what’s next?” We also get into friendships, relationships, and all the random things that somehow teach you something, even when they feel annoying or unnecessary at the time. Basically, if you’ve ever been sick, stressed, or just laying in bed thinking about your whole life like “am I doing enough?” this one’s for you. I keep it vulnerable, messy, and real, because that’s how life really feels sometimes.

Hey guys, it’s been a minute since my last episode! I’m recording a little differently this time. No outline, just talking from the brain in the moment. Today, I’m reflecting on slowing down, embracing stillness, and giving yourself permission to do less. Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should, and constantly pushing yourself isn’t always the answer. I share lessons from living independently in Miami, how stillness has helped me process my emotions, and why prioritizing your own peace is so important. If you’ve ever felt guilty for taking a break or sitting with your feelings, this one’s for you. Sometimes doing less is the most powerful thing you can do.

What starts as a semester in Florida… turns into free therapy. In this episode, I’m diving into my time studying away from home and how the impulsive decision to leave my comfort zone led to lessons I never saw coming. From experiencing college life in a new way to realizing how differently we all process the world, this journey has been nothing short of transformative.

We’ll talk about friendships, self-discovery, and the importance of letting people—and yourself—flourish as they are. Plus, storytime with Shayla and a reflection on why living in a new city might be the best thing for personal growth. Let’s get into it.
