Life in Progress

We’re quick to give grace to everyone else: the friend running late, the coworker still figuring it out, the stranger having a bad day. But when it’s us, we expect to have it all together already. In this episode, we talk about why patience with yourself is one of the hardest things to learn, and why it matters more than we think. We get into the pressure of comparing your timeline to everyone els...

It's not a competition. It just feels like one when everyone's posting their wins at the same time. I spent years quietly measuring myself against people who weren't even running my race. Same age, different assignment. Same industry, different starting point. And still I'd look at where they were and decide I was late. But late compared to what? There's no schedule. Nobody han...

Nobody will come to fix it for you. Not your parents, not a partner, not the future version of you who finally feels "ready." This week we're talking about the least glamorous part of adulthood: deciding that your life is your responsibility. Not because what happened to you doesn't matter, but because what you do with it now is the only part you actually get to choose. We get in...

Here's the reason why I decided to lock in. I didn't wait for the start of 2027 to make changes. I started on a regular Tuesday. No countdown, no new planner, no perfect timing. Because I realized I was treating January like a starting line, when really it was just a place to keep parking the things I was scared to begin. The version of me I kept postponing wasn't waiting for a new yea...

In this episode of Life in Progress, I'm coming to you from Barcelona to talk about something I care about deeply: the courage to keep trying, even when you get rejected, even when it's hard, and even when nothing seems to be working yet. This one is raw, honest, and personal. I get into why rejection is so much better than living with a lifetime of "what ifs," how progress is in...

Who else will believe that we can make it in life other than ourselves? There is so much power in believing in yourself first before anyone else can. Your own conviction sets the tone for everything that follows. When you trust in your ability to grow, to adapt, and to rise after every fall, you build a foundation that no doubt or discouragement can shake. People will always have opinions about wh...

Today I'm getting real with you about something I feel strongly about: I'm done romanticizing suffering. Suffering is optional. Growth is a must. In this episode, I'm sharing the standards I refuse to compromise on. In my business, my relationships, and my finances and why I believe you can build a life you love without wearing your struggle like a badge of honor. I've had to toler...

Are you feeling stuck in a routine, wondering if there is more to life than just getting by? You were built for greatness, and your potential has no expiration date. In this episode, we break down 10 powerful reasons why you should never settle for mediocrity or compromise on your dreams. No matter what your personal definition of success looks like. Whether it’s career growth, inner peace, creati...

How often do you think of yourself first before anyone else's needs? Most of the time, we pour a lot into something or someone else, not realizing we don't have anything left for ourselves. We give and give to work, to family, to everyone who needs a piece of us, until "me time" becomes something we keep postponing to next week, next month, next year. But you can't keep pouri...

I used to think comfort was the goal. Now I know it's the trap. My 30s have taught me that the moments that stretched me. The awkward conversations, the risks that could've flopped, the "I have no idea if this will work" leaps are the ones that actually built me. Comfort keeps you where you are. Discomfort is where you grow. So I've stopped waiting to feel ready. I've sto...

You know that voice in your head? The one narrating your life right now? You're going to hear it longer than any friend, partner, or family member you'll ever have. Every relationship in your life is optional or temporary, except that one. This episode is about the relationship nobody teaches you to maintain: the one with yourself. We're unpacking why the way you talk to yourself becom...

For years, I made myself smaller to fit into rooms I'd already outgrown. 🤍 This week on Life in Progress, I'm unpacking the things we apologize for that we never should: our boundaries, our ambition, our changing minds, our need to put ourselves first. Somewhere along the way, we learned that being agreeable was safer than being honest. This one is me unlearning that, out loud. Change isn...

What started as a casual travel update turned into one of my most honest episodes yet: why I don't think we need a "reason" to do the things we love, how losing my dad at 13 reshaped my entire relationship with time, and why I believe today's self-awareness culture might be quietly turning into a cage instead of a tool for freedom. I get into the neuroscience of habit and comfort...

Life doesn't arrive fully assembled and neither do we. Life in Progress is for women in their 20s and 30s navigating careers, relationships, money, mental health, and everything in between, without pretending to have it all figured out. No perfect answers, no highlight-reel advice, just honest conversations for anyone building a life while still becoming who they're going to be. Get the It...

In this episode, I'm getting real about what balance actually looks like once I stopped chasing productivity for its own sake. I talk through how I'm redefining success on my own terms, why simplifying my daily routine has made the biggest difference, and how I've learned to protect my mental well-being while still keeping up with the demands of work and everyday expectations. It's...

For so long, travel has been romanticized as the ultimate escape from stress, from routine, from yourself. But what if you've done enough running to know that doesn't work? In this episode, Angely sits down with Dr. Kilimanguru to talk about a different relationship with travel one where you don't go to get away, but to go further into your life. Travel as expansion, not avoidance. Whe...

What does it actually mean to let go without checking out? In this episode of Life in Progress, we explore the concept of mastering detachment: not as indifference or emotional numbness, but as a way of showing up more fully to your life. We dig into why holding on too tightly to outcomes, people, and identities keeps us stuck and how releasing that grip can open the door to clarity, peace, and ge...

You spent years shrinking yourself to fit. The expectations, the timeline, the version of you that everyone else was comfortable with. And then one day, quietly or all at once, you stopped.

No guests, no script, no filter. Just me, my mic, my camera, and an honest conversation I wish someone had with me sooner. This episode is all about mental health not the overwhelming, clinical kind, but the small, unglamorous lessons I've quietly picked up this year that have genuinely made my everyday life a little easier. The mindset shifts. The things I had to unlearn. The stuff that sound...

* We filmed this outdoors, so the audio might be a bit noisy. This is an experimental episode where we wanted to capture the realness of just talking with a camera and a mic. Reaching the age of 35 gives you the right perspective in life, and especially in friendships. You don't give space to people who don't value the same things as you. You speak of goodness to only those who also suppor...

What does travel look like when you're just starting out versus when you've already seen the world? In this episode, Angely sits down with Ms. Shan, a veteran of the travel industry with over 30 years of experience and the founder of Citti Elite. Together, they get real about how your relationship with travel evolves as you grow older, wiser, and more aware of what you actually want from a...
