In this episode called Restless Dreamer! I dive into creativity and the soul. Where do creative ideas come from? What is it that doesn’t let us sleep at night? Why does the universe try so tirelessly to get your attention? And with great power comes even greater fear. Fear of being seen. Fear of failure. Fear of success. Fear of change. Fear of the unknown. The soul waits patiently till we listen to it all while continuously putting us in places and situations we can no longer run from. We are troublemakers! Tune in to find out!

In this episode called Behind the Scenes! I dive into the psychology of archetypes. What are archetypes? Why do we resonate with some stories and their characters so easily? Why do we have a strange affinity to some brands? All our repressed emotions are hiding in our shadow self and they secretly influence us. Creativity is one of the top few things that we tend to repress. The language of archetypes is timeless. More brands are embracing these archetypes and are adding more human-like qualities to help resonate more authentically with their audience. Tune in to find out!

In this episode called I see YOU! I dive into Empathy. Is it a trait or a skill? Can it be learned? Or is it something that some of us are just born with? How each one of us can we view our life with a holistic lens and how we are made of star-stuff. The impact each one of us can create is colossal.

In this episode called Metamorphosis! I dive into Imposter Syndrome and how it is more common than we can imagine, how it creeps up every time we think we have left it behind, and if there is really a way to get over this feeling of being called out as a fraud. This unfounded fear is very real and crippling. It's this false narrative that we keep telling ourselves as we continue to internalize our failures. We need to stop and realize; we are enough, we were never inadequate, and how we are alchemists! Tune in to find out! You can find me on Instagram: @pariha.designstudio

In this episode called Connect The Dots! I dive into Serendipity. Can we really cultivate the art of finding what we are not seeking? Can we train ourselves to become Serendipitous? Can we not only wait for them but watch out for them? How to be receptive to these wonderful occurrences and they are not just attributed to luck but it's a skill that can be learned. Sometimes it takes fixing what we hate, sometimes just looking at something with a new perspective, sometimes it takes combining two vastly different worlds and sometimes it takes imagining an alternate reality.
