In this solo episode of Well Versed, we’re getting honest about overthinking—why we do it, how it’s holding us back, and what it’s really costing us. If you’ve ever felt paralyzed by “what ifs” or stuck waiting for the perfect moment, this is your pep talk to think less and do more.

Clarity doesn’t come from overanalyzing—it comes from action. I hope this episode is timely!

In this episode of Well Versed, we sit down with licensed therapist and founder of Therapy in Colour, Samar Haroon, to unpack the layered experience of healing for adults of immigrant parents. From culturally informed therapy to intergenerational trauma, Samar shares how identity, disappointment, religious pressure, and family dynamics shape our mental health. Together, we explore what it really means to “break the cycle,” how to have difficult conversations using the breadcrumb technique, and why healing starts with understanding — not just coping.

In this episode, I’m joined by Barbie, founder of Summon — a modern dating app built to put women and men back in control of their dating experiences, yet still designed to find you the ideal partner.

We dive deep into the concept of decentering men, not as a rejection of romance, but as an act of reclaiming your time, energy, and emotional bandwidth.

We also chat about the gender dynamics that exist between women and men today, the pressure to be chosen, the myths that keep women stuck in cycles of romantic over-investment, and why dating on your own terms is the real flex.

Barbie shares her journey as a founder, the inspiration behind Summon, and the shifts she’s seen in dating culture that made her want to build something different. Her mission? To create a dating experience that actually respects your time — helping users find meaningful connections without the emotional burnout or endless swiping.

In this solo episode of Well Versed, we explore the performative nature of progress and the evolving status symbols of today—unpacking Blue Origin’s all-female spaceflight, the resurgence of Trump-era tariffs, and the recent exposé revealing the role of Chinese manufacturers behind many luxury goods. What do these stories have in common? They show how status symbols are sometimes a scam and are increasingly about optics over substance. From curated feminist milestones to high-end bags made in the same factories as their dupes, we take a closer look at what we’re really buying into—and what it says about us as a culture.

This week on Well Versed, we’re diving into the powerful (and often overlooked) connection between stress, gut health, and nervous system regulation. Dr. Stephanie Nichols (NMD) joins me to break down why nervous system health is foundational, how chronic stress impacts your gut, and the herbal and lifestyle shifts that can actually support deep, sustainable healing.

We get into the gut-brain connection, signs of nervous system dysregulation, the role of cortisol, and what healing really looks like — beyond just supplements and surface-level fixes.

If you’ve been feeling “off” and don’t know why, this episode will inspire you to take real ownership of your health and reconnect with your body in a new way.
