Your Favorite Pick Me Up

YAY I'M BACK! This week in a short solo segment I talk about the reasoning behind last week's break from podcasting, my trips to Chicago and Seattle, and discuss what is going on in the world right now. After that, I get into my discussion with Eleni Bills, my friend who feels more like family, about our Greek Orthodox background, maintaining friendships throughout the years, and personality types as they apply to friends, family and romantic partners. Our closeness as friends is well-reflected in the episode and we hope you guys love it!

We're back! This week I am joined by my mom to talk all things work/life balance (hint: it is possible!) as well as role models, mentors, and what it takes to be a good interviewee. My mom has great insight into these topics as she has been a mentor and role model to many both at her job as a dermatologist and at home as a mother of four. In the beginning of the episode I discuss why I want to be thirteen again, the giant snowstorm in the northeast, and the upcoming winter Olympic Games. ENJOY GUYS!!! xx

HELLO! I am back solo this week talking all about establishing routines, habits, and how to accomplish your goals. I also touch on how to hold yourself accountable in a variety of situations because this is something I think most people struggle with. The episode starts with a fun update about my move back home and the time I've gotten to spend with my family. I also introduce a new segment (because there was literally no good news this week) where I discuss lava cakes and the buffalo bills. ENJOY :)
