Heartfelt

On the illusion (yes!) that life is rushing past us and the feeling that time is, in the words of Meryl Streep (& ABBA), slipping through our fingers. Just a friendly, start-of-the-year reminder that you have time (in fact, decades worth of it) and there's things you can do to make it run on 1x speed again. | Instagram ⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Substack ⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠

A year and a half after moving to Copenhagen, this is my ultimate list of the pros & cons of living in the Danish capital.

"The Copenhagen Episode" (published back in February) x | ⁠Instagram ⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠Substack ⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠YouTube⁠

To open the new season of Heartfelt (new cover & intro anyone?), I bring you a chat about all my recent favourites: things I've been reading, listening to (have you heard the name Rosalía?), and doing. For some cozy inspiration & ideas on how to spend the lo(oooo)ng and dark winter evenings. | Instagram ⁠ | ⁠Substack ⁠ | ⁠YouTube

we are BACK with another guest conversation and I could not be more excited to bring to you my chat with Erifili Gounari: a published author, substack writer, business-owner, and a fellow podcaster, reader, and (as Erifili puts it) lover of life! in this episode, we chat about the challenges & rewards of running her own business, what it takes to write a book in 4 months, and how the ripple ef...

on the complexity and layers of our personality: its context- and people-dependent iterations (a.k.a. new personality unlocked every day), how we evolve, who gets to see “the real us” (is there even such thing?), and is self-adjusting normal or a cause for concern (p.s. i still don’t know) | for updates, questions and eveything else, follow @heartfeltpod on instagram ୨୧

my brain has not been doing so well lately - I've been either feeling anxious or keeping myself distracted to avoid the gnawing sense that something is going wrong and I cannot do anything about it. but alas!! I'm never one to stray from honesty and talking about these stressful times makes them feel that much less heavy - and so, here's a little talk about where I've been mentally, what's making...

yeah i know it’s 2024 and talking about sadness & feeling existential doesn’t seem particularly vulnerable - but as a person who’s often joyous and loves to share that with others, i really struggle with opening up about my negative emotions and validating them JUST BECAUSE THEY’RE THERE, without needing a concrete reason for their existence. consider this episode a micro step in the right directi...
