PODCAST DESCRIPTION

WARNING: This podcast contains some strong language and/or swearing!

Hi, everyone! Welcome to the fourth and final episode of the first season of The Paideiac Self podcast!
In this episode, I reflect on some of my personal struggles so far for the past couple of months, namely my challenges with job searching and my difficulties with networking with others. I also speak of how staying productive has helped me overcome my worst fear-induced tendencies to remain passive when I need to act or make decisions.

While I'll be away from the podcast for the rest of the year and part of next year, I'll still be occasionally popping in from time to time on Instagram. Thus, feel free to like, subscribe, comment, and share my content.

Otherwise, the FIRST episode of SEASON 2 will be live and AVAILABLE on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and wherever podcasts are available on APRIL 13, 2024!

June 10, 2023S1E2 - Exploring the Idea of a Personal Legacy
PODCAST DESCRIPTION

Welcome to the second episode of the first season of The Paideiac Self podcast!
In this episode, I explore the idea of a personal legacy and what gets lost by not actively working to preserve one (whether it's your own or someone else's). I discuss the physical and social loss that sinks in as a result and express my thoughts what I find valuable about it as well as what I worry about if I find myself too obsessed with having and preserving one. At the end of the day, as mucha s I don't have concree answers to these questions I pose, I do think this idea of a legacy of any kind speaks to each of us and our innate desire to be remembered and acknowledged for our contributions to the world around us.
Feel free to share your thoughts down below in the comments section or on Instagram if you have any thoughts on what having a legacy means to you and what you think of it.
NEXT EPISODE will be live and AVAILABLE on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and wherever podcasts are available on JUNE 10, 2023!

May 23, 2023BONUS - Reflection: Just Got My Master's Degree!
PODCAST DESCRIPTION

Welcome to a BONUS episode of the first season of The Paideiac Self podcast!
In this episode, I will reflect on some major updates in regards to my life so far. In particular, I just graduated with my Master's Degree in Statistics from California State University - East Bay, which was a major milestone in my life that signified so much to me. Being the first in my family to get a Master's Degree, completing my long eight-year journey throguh college since the day I graduated from high school in 2015, and most of all, having a meaningful college experience filled with friendship, adventure, and opportunity.

Moving forward, I'm still trying to figure out my life trajectory after college, but I hope to at least enjoy my summer, go out more, and uncover where I want to grow emotionally while I continue to hunt for jobs.
NEXT EPISODE will be live and AVAILABLE on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and wherever podcasts are available on JUNE 10, 2023!

April 08, 2023S1E1 - Embracing Freedom and Growth Through a Conference Trip
PODCAST DESCRIPTION

Welcome to the first episode of the first season of The Paideiac Self podcast!

In this episode, I start off my going into the experiences I had attending the Conference on Statistical Practice in San Francisco from February 2-4, 2023. I discussed not only what the conference is about, but also how much it helped me grow and change through the opportunities for personal development it provided me (both inside the conference itself and during my time staying at a hotel for several nights). I go into how it taught me to not only find joy in freedom and independence, but also learning to believe in myself and redefine the narratives I told about myself and my potential.

NEXT EPISODE will be live and AVAILABLE on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and wherever podcasts are available on JUNE 10, 2023 at 12PM PST!
