  • #015 Everyone's the Main Character

    Do you think you're only fit to be a side character like the token POC best friend? Well guess what, you're the director of this movie called "[insert your name]'s Life" and if you don't cast yourself as the main character, who else is going to be the main character? This episode, I talk about my ~realizations~ because this is my podcast and you can't do anything about what I post.

  • #013 Potential Not Perfection: things to remember when you're anxious about auditions/interviews

    I talk about things I've realized and learned while accumulating experience doing interviews. This episode might be helpful as a reminder on things to do when you are so nervous for an interview that your mind just goes blank. Relax and take deep breaths. May the force be with you.

  • #012 My Takeaways from Seneca: On the Shortness of Life

    My own personal takeaways from reading Lucius Seneca's writing: On the Shortness of Life. Basically main points of things I want to remember and how I want to live my life from now on. Definitely not qualified to talk about philosophy. Cannot tell you the difference between Stoicism and Epicureanism. If you want to learn more about philosophy like I am doing right now, then Google is your friend. Be sure to also check out books from the library (digitally of course), and listen to philosophy podcasts from people who know what they're talking about! (I recommend Stephen West's "Philosophize This!").

  • #011 Productivity Methods I Recommend

    THE 5x5 RULE (that I made up, combining different productivity methods):

    1) Wake up at 5am

    2) Choose only the top 5 things to do (using Eisenhower Box)

    3) 5 second rule (by Mel Robbins)

    4) Commit for 5 minutes

    5) 50 minutes work/ 15 minutes rest ("Animedoro" on Youtube by Josh Chen)

  • #010 STOP Waiting for the “Perfect Moment”
    Whatever perfect moment you're waiting for, it doesn't exist. Telling yourself that is only an excuse to procrastinate. Take this as a sign to pursue whatever it is that you've been pushing off. If you feel like life has been dragging you along and feel powerless to do anything, then this is the reminder that you have the power to take back control of your life. You have everything you need right now, right here, in front of you. There is no better time than the present to start.

  • #009 What I've Learned Podcasting So Far
    Slightly chaotic (mildly. could honestly be worse). Just reflections on what I've learned making a podcast and the things that I want to improve on, namely: STOP FEARING JUDGEMENT.

  • #008 Listen when: you want to realize how much your Spanish has improved
    This episode, I document my current level of Spanish by talking about things that are going on in my life, things that interest me, and my future goals (all in Spanish of course). I improved my Spanish a lot in one year, so I'm curious as to how much it'll improve by next year!
    Note to future Helen: If it's shoulder scrunching and grimace inducing to listen back on this recording, it means your Spanish has improved! Yay! Fantástico! Please do me a favor as I am currently stuck in quarantine to go out and practice your Spanish with real people and eat some good food.

  • #007 Listen when: you feel like you wasted your day doing nothing

    We all have those days when time just flies by and we have accomplished nothing. nada. zilch. It can feel pretty discouraging and so you end up not even trying to get things done or become productive again. If you're in that situation, then join me as I try to provide some advice on what to do and changes to make to your mindset.
