Education EN ↓ 6 episodes

The Mirror is a project that transcends just being a podcast. The intention is that I exist as my authentic self in a way that will inspire you to do the same. I hold up a mirror to you the listener as a way to evoke reflection, introspection and thus an elevated level of self awareness. This is a two way street which involves being honest, open and most importantly human. This mirror will embody an energy of love and play.

Hello friends, firstly thank you for being patient with me. I have now returned from hiding and WE ARE SO BACK. Here is a little peek into who Palesa is. I’m extremely excited about taking the pod seriously. Welcome back to The Mirror😊❤️

I actually don’t know what I’m doing. 08.03.2025 1:07:46

This episode is about what has been on my mind and also my last episode for now as I realise I do need to spend some time being fully idle. I had a lot of fun with this one. Enjoy.

What is “the work” and why should you do it? 01.03.2025 25:32

This episode is an introduction into that stuff I really want to get to talking about. My thoughts were a bit all over the place. I think I overestimated how well I have processed this particular topic. I’m learning that I should probably sit with a topic a bit before handing it out. I hope you enjoy nonetheless.

Into the unknown/ Off the hamster wheel 22.02.2025 37:16

This episode covers my journey as an academic and my reasons for removing myself from that path. I also speak about the shame and guilt that comes with resting and briefly about the anxiety and discomfort that comes with going into the unknown.

Here goes something 15.02.2025 17:02

This is my very first podcast episode and it’s a little rough around the edges but I am okay with that. With this episode I was not chasing perfection or poise but merely a start line. The theme of my life right now is “ the only way to start is to start”. I hope you enjoy and I will catch you on the next one.
