life gets weird episodes

  • Stop Seeking Validation

    It's the last episode of 2020 and even though this year has been a whirlwind of emotions and struggles, it gave me this podcast and platform that I am so grateful for. So, if you've listened to one episode or all of them, from the bottom of my heart - thank you so much for being on this weird but wonderful part of 2020 with me. 

    P.S: life just gets weirder, so here's to 2021.

  • Representation In Film and TV

    This one is for the people who always thought they were too “other” to be worthy of representation in film and tv. You are ALWAYS worthy of having your story told. Be your own main character and do the damn thing.
