stranger turned friend 💌

a new daily segment where I ramble about ideas, thoughts, observations future me would want to remember! I ramble about the birth of my podcast and whether or not I'm really seeking validation or am I just finding excuses to avoid starting the thing I want to start.   QOTE (question of the episode): what's one idea you've wanted to start but haven't because you're waiting for validation?&nbsp...

The title says it all!  This is a deeply introspective episode. And I live for it. Everything Nicaylen and I talk about here is universal and we discuss everything from the way we act online to having empathy and how we apply stoicism in our lives to build confidence and self-esteem. We talk about how you can either choose to live in love or in fear... and I have a funny feeling Nicaylen is l...

Episode 10 baby!!! What a milestone. Today's stranger-turned-friend is Robel. He's kind and funny and overall, just a genuinely good guy.

Oh, Robel also helped me discover the religious meaning of this podcast. Hint : Maybe I'm try...

I hope we get to meet someday :)...

If aliens were to descend upon earth and needed to educate themselves about what it means to be alive, this episode would be required learning.  We were high on life in this one.

AND THEN, we talked about Sarah's t...

In this episode, we take a peek into Mahika's perspective on life. If there's one thing to take away from this, it's the quote from Ferriss Bueller's Day Off: Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you might miss it. Mahika wants you to get off your gadgets and go experience life. She wants you to live your truths and stop living in fear (of the future or the pa...
