April 17, 2024 Breaking The Binge: My journey to (hopefully) overcome binge eating | Ep 80
Imagine this: High school, jam-packed schedule, football practice… the whole nine yards. My coach used to say the key to a good game was "fake it 'til you make it" – all smiles and enthusiasm, even when you're exhausted. That idea kinda stuck with me, you know, how you project yourself can influence how you actually feel.
So, you might hear that same energy in my podcast, how I push myself in classes, even my rugby matches (though trust me, that enthusiasm gets real there!). But here's the thing, life isn't all touchdowns. I've been dealing with some serious binge eating issues, and let's just say therapy hasn't exactly been my BFF. Finding good resources was a whole journey.
There was this one podcast though, this amazing tip about managing emotions… a total game-changer for my battle with food. You see, venting can feel good, but sometimes you gotta take action, right? Like that leaky faucet you keep complaining about – gotta fix it!
Speaking of action, I recently made a big decision. Ditched an internship that was zapping my well-being. Plus, guess what? I launched my own thing – Nisha Nexus, big things coming soon! In the midst of all this, I'm also rethinking relationships and how I take care of myself.
So, this episode is about tackling binge eating, the power of quiet time and maybe even some prayer (hey, don't knock it till you try it!). Oh, and there's a little teaser at the end about finding balance, you know, that whole unity-in-diversity thing. Buckle up, it's gonna be a ride!

April 10, 2024 Finally… cracking the Selfish-Selfless Paradox! | Ep 79
I share insights from their English class on 'Frankenstein,' highlighting misconceptions about the character and the deeper themes of creation, abandonment, and self-versus-societal expectations. Then I transition into the 'selfish-selfless paradox' and the idea that a degree of selfishness is necessary for selflessness, explored through personal philosophizing and the Virtue→Vice Scale. I dive into “Philosopher Superpowers” like empathizing, interpreting, and forward-thinking. Updates on myself, my people, and my work provide a backdrop to the exploration of themes like switching costs, solitude vs. loneliness, and the continuous journey of self-improvement and addressing physical health as a primary goal.
