  • Letting go of taking things personally

    Hi everyone! Today Subashini and I are talking about ✨taking things personally ✨I've always been a little bit more on the sensitive side and have struggled with communicating how I feel calmly, especially when I feel attacked by loved ones. This topic deeply interests me because it's something I really am trying to work on internally. While I don't think there's anything necessarily wrong with being sensitive (better than being apathetic imo), I do think it's more important to be at peace than to try explaining or proving yourself to others. Lemme know what you guys think and if you can relate (pls relate otherwise my sensitive ass will cry lmaoooo)

  • On why it's hard being a turtle, reconnecting with nature and finding ourselves through it.

    I’m joined by my gooood friend Dharkshen on this episode! Dharkshen is currently volunteering in Perhentian Island, learning about the marine ecosystem and the coastal community. Other than going on amazing ocean dives where she gets to learn about restoring corals and marine species — she’s also using her background in journalism to bridge the gap between science and society.

    I absolutely loved recording this episode where we get into a bit of the work Dharkshen is doing in Perhentian as well as our own personal experiences of reconnecting with the environment and how that helped us find ourselves a little more. 

    Dharkshen makes amazing content; both on her own Instagram as well as for the Perhentian Marine Research Organisation, so please go check them both out to learn more!
