Millennials Talk

Do you believe in astrology? Astrologer and alchemist, Adama Sesay, is here to show you how you can transform your life by the power of the universe. A big believer in manifestation, sageing, and the alignment of the stars, sun, and moon, Adama talks us through the process. Adama is based in New York City and takes readings from all around the world. And I swear you guys, she's the real deal. I've broken this episode into two parts as the chat got quite long. Today's episode is all about the background, history, and spirit of astrology. We also cover the meaning of 'Lilith' and speak about what it's like being seen as an 'inspiration' as a Black astrologer in the 21st century. And to make things even sweeter, my friend, Ally, filled in as a co-host! I hope you enjoy this chat! Make sure you rate, subscribe, and review. It really helps us out. New episodes drop each Monday at 6 AM ET.

Research has now suggested micro-influencers are more valuable than influencers with millions of followers, due to the trust their community holds and their sincere passion for brands and products. Fashion and Beauty Content Creator, Austen Tosone, can back this up. Austen is based in New York City and not only does she work as a micro-influencer and content creator, but also has a 9-5 at Jumprope. Originally a magazine writer then editor, we speak about the cut-throat industry and the journey she went on when not one but two of the magazines she was working at, Nylon and Interview, shut down. The forced and unexpected termination meant she was thrown into the freelance writing world and she had to figure it all out for herself. While it was a learning curve for Austen, it led her to be able to create her own e-book, Right On Pitch - a detailed pitch guide to fellow aspiring writers. From imposter syndrome to networking, Austen kindly shares it all with us. I hope you enjoy this chat! Make sure you rate, subscribe, and review. It really helps us out. New episodes drop each Monday at 6 AM ET.

Snacking Is A Lifeline During The Pandemic

Wow. What a time it's been for our world over the past few weeks. Coronavirus has really put life into perspective for many and has brought us closer as nation emotionally - not physically! It's also crazy to think how much the virus has changed in purely the past week. Last week at this time I was in Australia and was laughing over the lack of toilet paper. Now, I'm sitting at home locked down in isolation. I want to make it clear (as I'll go over in the chat multiple times), I and my guest, Baillie, are in no way making fun of the situation, however, we didn't take it as seriously as we do now because it wasn't as serious as it is now when we recorded the chat. On a completely different spectrum, we also spoke about what it's like being a nice person. While that sounds stupid, I thought it was interesting to delve into the idea of when being nice is too nice. I hope you enjoy this chat and you stay safe out there. I'm sending my love and well wishes to everyone xx Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, RATE & REVIEW!

Money and mental health - two taboo topics. However, I read an article this week that said millennials are destigmatizing speaking about money and mental health and I was 100% on board. I can honestly say first hand that there have been times I need to take a day off work due to a mental health struggle, yet never once have I said that. It's always been the standard food poisoning or general 'sick'. Why? because mental health is still a stigma and we're worried of what people may or may not say regarding our health. Mental health is just as important, if not more, than physical health. And as for money, well, I didn't grow up talking about money. It was a sweep under the rug topic. So it was interesting when my guest Fiona Zaring had a different upbringing. We speak about these issues and more in this chat. I hope you enjoy and keep the conversation alive on our socials!

MONDAY MANTRA: YOU DON'T HAVE A GOOD DAY, YOU MAKE A GOOD DAY. 

I don't understand why so many people hate Mondays. I think much of it stems from the fact that we're conditioned to. There's memes all over social media and we're told about the negativities non-stop - but we should make up our own minds and see it as a way to ace the new day and soar and concur all. In this chat I hope I've been able to give you some tips and tricks on how to have a successful Monday and week using the GYST method and little bit of organisation. I recorded this chat while the Oscars was on, so there's a little bit of a live Oscar chat (rant) too!!! Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, RATE & REVIEW!

Housing prices are more expensive than ever before and people are waiting longer to buy their first homes. And it was no surprise to me that more millennials are choosing to now travel vs buy a home. Personally, I belive travel is one of the best forms of education in all aspects. In today's chat I talk about travel, experiences and horrible stories with Kristin Corpuz. As a freelance writer, she gets to travel a lot and we speak about the ups and downs of it all. If you haven't listened to full episode four (two eps ago), definitely go listen to that first to learn more about Kristin! I hope you enjoy this episode xx Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, RATE & REVIEW!

Welcome to my birthday episode. Today I turn 26 and at this very moment in time, I feel at peace. Honestly go back seven days and this was far from true! This week I've reflected A LOT and thought about some of the biggest lessons I've learnt in my life. So in a very last minute spontaneous, open, raw, unedited episode, I bare my soul and let you in on 26 lessons and secrets I've held onto. Some of the things I've never shared and it's such a freeing yet nerve-wracking thing to put it out in the world. Thank you so much for your support. I hope you enjoy this episode xx Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, RATE & REVIEW!

Not knowing what you want to do in life can be a daunting feeling - (trust me, I have it nearly every day)! But the answer is always being open tp new opportunities and putting yourself out there to form connections. Kristin Corpuz was on track to becoming a musician when an opportunity to write for Billboard completely changed her career trajectory. In this chat we speak about Krisitn's journey to becoming a freelance writer and how not having a degree in the field was never an issue when you write from the heart and speak about relatable life. We also chat about the not-so glamorous parts of the job and how you just have to keep moving forward no matter how many rejection no's you receive. Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, RATE & REVIEW!
