Amani Rakeia (@amanirakeia, she/her) aka your favorite comfort YouTuber, gets up close and personal with us during this week’s guest episode. Amani is a digital content creator, storyteller, former Rare Beauty and Aritzia community & social media manager, and most importantly, a woman creating the life she loves, on her own terms. Whether she’s perfecting a new matcha latte recipe at home or getting vulnerable and honest about dealing with loneliness, dating, finding your people in a new city and navigating adulthood in your 20s, Amani is a truth-teller throughout her journey and she continues to beautifully share with her online (and offline) community. In this heartfelt convo, Amani shares:

  1. How she navigated a non-linear journey from her previous corporate girlie career path to now living as a full time freelance digital creator
  • How moving to across the country and starting over shifted her perspective on dating, friendships, loneliness and what self-care has taught her
  • What ease, softness and balance look and feel like to her during this era of her 20s
  • ANNOUNCEMENTS & MENTIONS
