Hellooooo!

Stranger-turned-friend, Robyn, joins the pod this week. I've become internet friends with Robyn for a while now, and we finally got to chat with each other after so long! And what a delightful episode this was :)

Idk how else to say it, but Robyn's like the human version of warm glow (you'll get what I mean when you tune in!)

We talked all about:

1. How Robyn became more in tune with her creativity through her podcast and music

2. Pushing down the parts of us that feel true just because they don't fit in to conventional expectations

3. Robyn's decision to enter the military

4. Dealing with seasonal depression and panic attacks

5. Being gracious with yourself, especially during hard times

Grab your favorite beverage and cozy up with us :)

Hi pals!

This is Part 2 of Behind The Scenes, where I share some of my thought process as I build this podcast. If you missed it, here's Part 1 :) 

Krishna reached out to me on Instagram and told me he wanted to start a podcast but didn't know where to start. This sparked a 2 hour brainstorming session that I initially didn't feel the need to post but listening back, there were a couple golden nuggets that I couldn't resist putting out. So here you go!

Please enjoy Part 2 of Behind The Scenes where you'll listen about my inner thoughts about: 

1. What drives this podcast?

2. How I use podcasting as a way to cope with uncertainty and let go of my expectations? 

3. Have I ever had an awkward conversation where I wasn't able to talk to the person for more than 10 minutes? 

4. Why do we fear awkward conversations? 

5. How I think about marketing this podcast? 

6. What are the best conversations i've had on this podcast? 

7. How can someone improve their "vibes"?

8. How do you transition from small talk to big talk?

Thanks Krishna for all the introspective and curious questions!

Hi pals!

This week's episode is a little bit more intimate than the rest. Because... it's all about me, myself, and I.

It's rare that I do it but this opportunity came up when a dear listener, Krishna, reached out to me on Instagram and told me he wanted to start a podcast but didn't know where to start. This sparked a 2 hour brainstorming session that I initially didn't feel the need to post but listening back, there were a couple golden nuggets that I couldn't resist putting out. So here you go!

Please enjoy Part 1 of Behind The Scenes where you'll listen about my inner thoughts about picking my battles, how I developed my approach in life, being consistent with this podcast, and why I fell in love with this platform. 

Thanks Krishna for all the introspective and curious questions!

Hi pals!

It's been a few hectic weeks but your girl's back with another banger episode! 

I have the lovely and kind Jordyn join the pod as we swim in the metaphorical whirlpool of generational trauma and mental health. And no, we do not have the right gear on but who ever does?? 

This is honest o'clock friends. Jordyn shares about the importance of being in harmony with ourselves, how to navigate uncomfortable conversations with our loved ones, and ultimately, how to be at peace with situations that we don't have control over.

Grab your favorite beverage and cozy up with us :)

Gladys ooooout! (till next week of course)

Hi pals!

We're a week into the New Year and this conversation couldn't be more timely :) I feel very lucky that complete strangers are willing to spend a sliver of their time to hang out with me and share their little life nuggets. And then another complete set of strangers are down to plug in and kick it with us so that's really dope too. 

In this episode, stranger-turned-friend, Cece, and I shared our thoughts about the human psychology during COVID-19, cadavers, the magic of slowing down and finding the adventure in the mundanity.

Happy New Year to you and you and you :)

I can't think of a better episode to end 2022/start 2023 with as stranger-turned friend Vera and I reflected on the past year and got to know each other along the way. 

Vera and I chat about the friendships in our lives, Hawaii, our favorite music, playing in a jazz band (which you know I absolutely ADORE), our love for food, things we're grateful for in 2022 and looking forward to in 2023. Delightful convo that I recommend you pair with a cup of tea.
