A Moment Of Real Time

Episode 8 — Lesson 4/30: How to Stop Feeling Behind in Life It's 2:03 AM. I've been gone for almost a year. I didn't plan to disappear. Some things happened — heavy, permanent things — and my old world simply stopped. While everyone else kept running, I lay still and watched the days pass. This episode is not an explanation. It's not a comeback. It's just me, sitting under a la...

Episode 7 — Lesson 3 /30: The Importance of Unlearning Some of the things we were taught — about success, about staying strong, about who we're supposed to be — stopped being true a long time ago. We just kept carrying them anyway. This episode is about the quiet courage of letting go. Not of everything. Just of what no longer belongs to you. Sometimes becoming new again begins with gently set...

Episode 6 — Lesson 2/30: Learning to Say "No" Saying no doesn't make you cold. It means you've started listening to yourself, maybe for the first time in a while. A small, honest reflection on setting limits without losing your warmth. For anyone who's ever left a conversation feeling hollowed out, wondering where they went. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Episode 5 — Lesson 1/30: Stop Saying “Yes” To Everything For a long time, saying yes felt like kindness. It took me a while to notice it was slowly becoming a habit of disappearing. This episode is about learning quietly, imperfectly to protect what actually matters by finally letting go of what doesn't. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Episode 4 — Becoming 30: Wandering, Wondering, Becoming I used to think thirty would feel like an arrival. It mostly just felt like standing in the middle of something I couldn't name yet. This episode is for anyone who reached a milestone and found more questions than answers waiting for them there. Growing up, I'm learning, isn't a destination. It's just a slower way of paying at...

Episode 3 — Love Hangover: Too Drunk to Stay, Too Hooked to Leave Some endings don't announce themselves. They just linger like the last drink of the night, half-finished, left on the table. This episode is about that in-between place: when something is already over but your body hasn't gotten the message yet. Not drunk enough to stay. Not sober enough to leave. A quiet conversation about...

Episode 2 — Tết Mode: On! – Turn Off Worries, Turn On PeaceThis episode was supposed to arrive on the 28th of Tết. Life had other plans: a hospital, a quiet room, a different kind of slowing down. Coming home late, I realized Tết was never really about the timing. It's about what we choose to feel when the noise finally stops. This is a small, late offering, still warm, I hope. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠...

Episode 1 — Looking Back at 2024: A Meaningful YearWhat if your 30-year-old self could sit across from you right now, and ask you the questions you've been avoiding? In this episode, I talk about where this podcast came from, what "A Moment Of Real Time" actually means to me, and the things I learned from a year that changed more than I expected. Some years don't teach you lesson...

Episode 0 — Beginning the Journey: A Moment Of Real Time Every honest thing has to start somewhere. This is mine, a first attempt at saying out loud the things I usually keep to myself. No script. No agenda. Just the beginning of a conversation I didn't know I needed to have. Welcome to A Moment Of Real Time. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
