Wall Street—an episode about chaos, cash, and learning the hard way that New York will still be there tomorrow. From girls’ dinners and Michigan memories to questionable spending habits (yes, almost $3K in three weeks… call me insane), we unpack what’s actually worth it in your 20s, travel, fashion, or just surviving with groceries. With a little finance advice, a lot of bad decisions, and some plotting along the way, this episode is your reminder that everyone’s figuring it out, even when it looks like they’re not.

JUST DO IT! I moved to the city of my dreams and beat all odds against me. I share the story on how I came here with 5 professional network connections to 45 in just one month; from shooting BTS at New York Fashion Week, invited to album listening parties, and interviewing for more than 8 new positions.. anything is possible if you just get yourself to do it.

Everyone loved him in episode “2 man” so I brought back my good friend Yanis, for the season 3 finale. As much as I thought I’d be more reflective in this episode— I can’t help the truth; it’s been an exciting time hanging out with my different prospects in the Bay and Yanis and I talk about predictions for my behavior in NYC.

From boy group drama to life as a medical assistant— there’s no telling where this episode is headed. Thank you all for a great run, this was fun. I need to go lock in now.

My guest was in the delivery room when I was born, and no she is not my mother… she’s my best friend who’s navigated the Bay Area with me since ‘03, Persian twin, and someone who we pass our roster back and forth with. (Totally kidding?)

Your favorite Silicon Valley born and raised girls who are proving stereotypes wrong day by day! Welcome my guest Ananya who may be the only reason I passed french in middle school AND high school. From partying in Purdue together (I didn’t even go there) and now living on our own in big new cities, we dive into what most Bay Area Mixers WON’T.

Meet my business partner, Elise, before Life of Dar there was "On the phone, with Elise and Dar". While I was gone to Arizona, She has been RUNNING the Bay Area streets! So far, she is the only guest that has been friends with me for over 12 YEARS! Hear every phase of dar and you'll start to realize that I have always been...

(Episode 9 as we figure out how to get episode 8 into audio format, catch up on my youtube @ Darya Abtahi)

You are in fact hearing double. Welcome my sister Sarah, to the pod! The one who laid it down for me before I created my own storyline. Even though we are 17 years apart, we still share so many similar interests such as gossip on guys, starting our own businesses, bay area party scenes, and more! Don't know how our dad handled us twins.

Episode 6!!! I'm moving to New York- my 3 week hiatus underwent some fun holiday changes, such as finally dropping the ball and making my move across the country. I also decided to mega side quest and audition for 'The Voice'(I'm in season 25 already in the audience)!

And as always, I shot my shot at some and landed in success; just shoot your shot, even if they're a decade older. (I didn't know I swear ;) )

I went back to where it all started... The University of Arizona! I have my little and best friend, Jordyn, from "I went to the Grammy's" to recap my homecoming weekend. It's always a good time here.

Happy Halloween! The transformation is real, from throwing my own halloween party to realizing how much I’ve grown through rejection, reflection, and a little chaos through and LOT of google calendar scheduling. This week, I’m diving into how I accidentally scheduled a transformation. From SF tech events to line dancing and saying “bye” to boys (for now), it’s been a ride. Growth, chaos, and glitter; all in one 'solo' episode.
