The Best Podcast

Today's podcast centers around this quote: “Letting your emotions dictate your actions is the greatest sign of weakness.” Managing your emotions and making better decisions are themes that I come back to time and time again. They are such important facets of my life, so I hope that this short discussion can provide some insights into that. Thanks for checking out this talk! Much love ❤️

Today’s podcast was certainly thought-provoking. Any conversation with Jesus has the potential to be intellectually deep and eye-opening, and this one certainly fulfilled that potential. We discuss end of year resolutions, counting your blessings, improvement, breaks, cutting out your ego, balancing duality, and the dynamism of life and humanity. I took so much away from this conversation and I am so excited to share it with you all! Check it out. Much Love ❤️

Today’s podcast was special. Every conversation I have with Ty is one of great depth and insight, and I leave each interaction with such optimism and intentionality for life. In this episode, we hit on a number of topics. We start off talking about graduating from college in 10 days, which spun into a few different critical topics, such as the debate as to whether you can understand something you’ve never experienced or felt, the caveats within everything, the importance of meaning to push change forward, understanding the patterns of your emotions and reactions, and how pivotal swallowing your pride can be. At the end, we put out a HUGE challenge to everyone listening. I made a big statement to say that if you just commit to making a change to a trait about yourself over 30 days with planning, feedback, and putting behind the mental barriers you currently have, you will make the change necessary. If ANYONE wants to test this, PLEASE send me a DM on Instagram or any other social media. I pledge my support to you in exchange for your testimonial. I’m looking forward to hearing your reactions to this. As always, Much Love! ❤️

In today’s podcast, I discuss Epigenetics. Epigenetics is the study of heritable gene expression. Studies have found that chemicals can tag DNA to turn gene expression on or off. This principle could have major implications for our behaviors, as the things we do could affect how our genes are expressed both for ourselves and for the generations that come after us. I break this concept down in this episode, and I hope that you enjoy it! Much Love! ❤️

Today’s podcast is a bit different. Instead of discussing a new topic or my current thoughts on something, I read through a short writing from 3 years ago during my first semester at university. It was really humbling to see the themes I discussed in it, as I still strongly resonate with its principal sentiments. I hope you all enjoy this deeper look into my thoughts from the past and my development. Your attention means the world. Much Love. ❤️

Hoy, os presento a mi amiga Mila. Ella vive en Santa Marta, Colombia. En este episodio del podcast, Mila y yo hablamos de la organización y la improvisación. A través de este tema, llegamos a otros puntos muy interesantes, como sus planes de ir a Europa para trabajar en el mundo del cine, la revolución actual en las universidades en Colombia, y qué tan importante es conocerte a ti mismo. Espero que os guste la conversación. Mila es súper divertida y fue un placer hablar con ella en el podcast. Much love ❤️

Today, a podcast addressing the surges in gratefulness that occur during the Thanksgiving and holiday season. It makes me really happy to see these boosts in gratefulness and contentment. However, it is unfortunate to see that this is one of the few times of the year where this occurs often and is encouraged. How grateful will you be on March 7th? How about on May 27th? Let’s not confine this gratefulness to this short time period. Let’s ingrain this gratefulness into ourselves as a consistent characteristic that comes out frequently in our lives. Thanks so much again for tuning in. Much love ❤️

Today, a discussion on the stark difference between pontification and problem solving. We often find ourselves discussing the same problems and issues that we have over and over and over again. However, why do we do this when we know that it’s not solving anything? To counter this, I break down ways in which we can get out of this zone of pontification to get into a zone of action and problem solving. Although I discuss it through the lens of my education research, it can be applied in almost ANY setting. I hope that it proves to be valuable for you. Thanks for tuning in! As always, much love ❤️

Today, another cool podcast conversation with my friend Ellen Atwood. Ellen has a really cool background, from being born in London to her love for music, she has had a lot of cool experiences that she talks about with me today. She also talks a lot about her experiences with rowing, changing universities, and traveling. She’s such a cool person and I’m really excited to share this chat with everyone. I hope you enjoy it! Much love ❤️

Today, I had the absolute pleasure of having one of my dearest friends on the podcast. Jordan’s life experiences are so interesting to hear about and the transformation he has undergone is simply inspiring. We chat about that transformation, his deep desire to create, and how that desire manifests itself in music, language learning, dance, and travel. Jordan is an absolute stud, which you will all find out when you tune in to this episode. Much love ❤️
