This week we head to Brooklyn New York and sit down with Nicole Schneit of the band Air Waves. This band has had a special place in my heart for many years and I was absolutely honored to have the opportunity to finally sit down with someone i admire so greatly. We discussed the power of creating intimate and personal lyrics as a form of expressing a side of yourself that others may not always be aware of, finding peace in the fact that you can continue to create music no matter what hurdles life may throw at you and ultimately I pick Nicoles brain about balancing a creative world and still finding time to enjoy life. Follow Air Waves @Air__Waves and head to airwaves.bandcamp.com for more music and exclusive content!

This week we head to Ontario Canada and speak with Halima Hossinzehi, a Baloch masters student whose love for editing pictures and sports came together beautifully earlier this year. After a picture she posted went viral and was the focal point of an article published by Vogue Magazine, Halima found herself receiving messages from around the world about her story and the impact that it had. As Baloch people started to reach out and feel represented, Halima now had a platform in which she could provide more representation not only for Baloch people but also women around the globe. We discuss growing up in Canada, her connection with her cultural identity, and what she hopes to accomplish by promoting her culture and people on a global scale.
