38 min - EP 8: my coworker died and it was business as usual
TW: talking about grief and death. In this episode of Making Me Proud, I talk about the recent death of a coworker that left me feeling empty and angry. It made me angry that no one seemed to be bothered by his death (although people cope in different ways). If you've experienced a death in the workplace, I'm looking for advice on ways to heal.

58 min - EP 2: worst date & no more pen pals
I drove 2 hours for a first date. I had a 2-month talking stage before meeting in real life. Per my journal entry last year, I'm done with pen-paling men, but am I living up to those words?
Listen to my worst date story: the cringe, the horror. Shed tears for my younger self, please. I know I did.

I have some exciting news about my MBA application journey in this episode. I also talk about the idea of the personal legend from the famous novel 'The Alchemist.' I relate that idea of pursuing the personal legend to the anime 'One Piece.' It's nerdy stuff, so bear with me.
