#34: Welcome back! I'm very excited to share my interview with my friend Michelle with you. This conversation goes everywhere, from navigating the challenges of medical school in a whole new city to planning your day from start to finish and everything in between! We talk about health care, mental health, and what drew Michelle to pursue medical school initially. We talk about how to start exercising if you don't already have a plan, beauty tips, friendships and so much more! I hope you enjoy hearing and learning from Michelle as much as I do. I hope it brightens your day, and helps you look at things in a different perspective. It's fun, it's a little silly, it's interesting, it's not that serious. It's Sarapy! Hope you listen, hope you laugh, hope you learn <3

#33: HI and welcome back to Sarapy! I'm here with a fun little solo episode to kick off your summer.

We're talking about making hydration actually fun, why summer is the best time not to worry, reevaluating New Year's Resolutions, and getting outside with your friends! First, I'm catching you up on my adventures and giving you a little safety PSA that you don't want to miss. It's fun, it's light, you'll love having it on during your commute! It's Sarapy.

#32: Hi and welcome back! I’m really excited to share with you my thoughts about comparison - how it can be positive or negative, how we can use it to inspire or discourage us, and how to do less of it and be more focused on appreciating what we already have! I’m sharing with you 4 different questions I think it’s helpful to ask when you find yourself in a habit of comparing yourself to much, and also offering some tips and tricks for trying to compare yourself to others less! But FIRST! I’ve got some great recommendations for you about some places I’ve been recently, including a Cincinnati winery and my new favorite plant store! It’s fun, it’s light, it’s just my thoughts and I really hope it’s helpful! It’s meant to make you smile, I hope it makes you laugh. It’s Sarapy :) Hope you listen, hope you laugh, hope you learn <3

#31: Welcome back! I’m SO pumped to share my interview with my friend and musical colleague, Jim Duff. In this podcast, Jim takes us on an exciting exploration of his life, starting from his earliest song writing at age 15 through his recent experience fighting Stage 4 Cancer just a few years ago. You’ll learn how prioritizing another business rather than music ultimately led him to even greater success, and how authenticity and tunnel vision toward his music has propelled him forward. Jim opens up about some of the greatest lessons he learned throughout his journey with cancer, and reminds us all the importance of never taking life and our loved ones for granted. We also talk about Jim’s songwriting, his current book AND upcoming book, and our upcoming show next month! But FIRST! I’m catching you up on some great recommendations, and telling you about the dreams I have when I watch too many nature shows. It’s fun, it’s meant to put a smile on your face, it’s every Thursday. It’s Sarapy. Hope you listen, hope you laugh, hope you learn <3

This fun conversation goes anywhere and everywhere, from what life is like post grad school when your schedule is entirely up to you, to how working jobs outside of your career makes you more well rounded and better equipped to pursue your passion. Clara gives us some incredible tips on optimizing your audition preparation, and explains how an overall mindset shift made a huge difference in her approach to auditions. We also talk about how Clara has stayed consistent at the gym, and shares her thoughts on the best techniques when attempting consistency. Get ready for some great conversation, and a color-coding practice technique that blew my mind. I’m also catching you up on my life and of course giving you some fire recs!

#25: Welcome back and Happy New Year! I hope your 2024 is off to a wonderful start, and that this episode will make it even better! Today I’m interviewing double bass player John Mietus who recently won his job with Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra in New Zealand. I’m also joined by my friend and business partner McKinley Glasser as we collectively discuss auditions, anxiety (performance and all types!), the highs and lows of life as artists, and the adventures in the journey. John shares his experiences with auditions so far and reflects on how much easier it is giving great advice than receiving it for yourself. But FIRST! I’m quickly catching you up on my end of 2023/beginning of 2024. I’m telling you about my dream NYE, giving you some fire recs (food, books, and podcasts), and even throwing a dad joke in there! It’s fun, it’s reflective, it’s good vibes. It’s not that serious. It’s Sarapy! Hope you listen, hope you laugh, and hope you learn <3
