This week I sat down with my lovely neighbor to chat about her upbringing as a South Asian-American woman. Born outside the U.S. but having lived here since a small child, she battled the pull between the two words - the home country and her new home of America. Both having very different societal expectations from a young age of her career trajectory and love life. Follow Natasha on Instagram @na...

This week I'm unpacking some experiences and emotions on the topic of fitness and how our exercise routine can be healthy and a source of motivation in our lives.... but how it can also be a source of covering up pain and self-doubt. This is something that I've been processing a lot the last 6 months in terms of how my (what became an) unhealthy obsession with over exercise and physique...

I'm sitting down to catch up with my dad after a busy and fun four weeks of travel! We are recapping the highlights (and some unfortunate lows) of my recent two week long girls trip to Mexico. We visited Cabo, Mexico City and Puerto Vallarta and had an absolute blast! Some hiccups along the way which is to be expected when traveling, especially in foreign countries, but we made the most of it...

In this week's episode we talk about the experience traveling internationally alone for the first time. Up to this point, I had travelled domestically alone many times... but traveling outside of the U.S. by myself as a 28-year old woman was a completely new experience. I had been dreaming about a solo international trip for a few years so when I had the opportunity to escape the chaos in Aus...

In part 3 of (ex) fiancé #2 we talk post-breakup. As I shared with you guys on my Instagram last week, this was an extremely terrifying and exhausting time. This guy could not come to terms with the fact that our relationship was over. And he does just about everything you can think of - threats, stalking, harassment... he even went as far as to attempt to sue me, to not let me go. Tune in now to...

In part 2 of this series I open up about uncovering the affair of my ex. I knew for months something was off and eventually got to a point where I had no doubt he was cheating; but I wasn't willing to walk away until I had answers for the sake of my own sanity. That's what narcissists are masters at - making you feel like YOU'RE the crazy one and that all the problems and red flags...

If you have not yet, I highly encourage you guys to listen to episode 2 and 4 before diving into this week's episode. There are touch points from my past that help in the unfolding of this story.

I also touch on my first solo travel experience which leads to more story time involving a spontaneous cross country trip to Boston and a cute mystery man tour guide while I'm there. Fun things can happen when you venture into the world on your own and step outside your comfort...

Sometimes we hold feelings of guilt and/or shame for an unhealthy amount of time. How long is long enough to learn from our mistakes? Do we sulk in these feelings for too long and hold ourselves back from fully healing and moving forward? Tune in as we discuss thoughts and experiences. Random bonus included: fun (or not so fun HA!) fact about my hometown. Enjoy Loves! xx Guest: Ken Zervas Follow t...
