What Do You Love?

My guest for this episode is Melissa Chataigne. We talked about the benefits of living a life well styled, as she puts it, which includes everything from how you dress to what you consume. We also discussed the struggles that come when depression rears its ugly head and how actively choosing to live is a victory in and of itself. (And to that point, I’ll mention now as a trigger warning of sorts t...

My guest for this episode is Brian Vickers, a lifelong lover of all things music. We discussed how that kind of unquenchable passion forms and how he was able to persist and ensure that it became more than just a hobby. He also emphasized how finding contentment amidst a sea of regret is of utmost importance and how even the smallest things that spark joy are worth pursuing. And in the end, while...

My guest for this episode is Mike Morrison. We discussed his entrepreneurial spirit and how he’s able to reconcile his ability to be both spontaneous and extremely calculated, the joys and struggles of working for yourself, the thought process behind his mentality of “just go for it,” how he’s able to live seemingly regret-free, and in the end, why he loves (and spoils) his pet dog and cat. This e...

My guest for this episode is James Barnes, a man who epitomizes the idea of living life through the lens of empathy. We discussed that concept and why it is so important to learn in order to understand what others are going through. We also spent a lot of time talking about parenting - how to grapple with the highs and lows of how we were parented, how things have drastically changed for Millennia...

My guest for this episode is Stephanie Arakelian. We talked about a great deal of things: from how she took the worst week of her life and navigated it into a massive career change to harnessing the power of controlling the controllable; from the importance of amplifying marginalized voices (and even more specifically, in the podcasting world) to cultivating a network through being genuine. And, u...

For this first episode, I reached out to a person I’ve been friends with since we were 12. Few people know me as well as Cy Serrano, so our conversation was natural and fun and also covered new territory, where even after 25 years of friendship, he still surprised and impressed me. We discussed what being intentional actually means, and why it is so important to anything that we do; why his mantra...

My guest for this episode is Kunal Tandon, a guy I know by complete happenstance. There’s really zero reason for us to have come in contact with each other besides a shared interest in what an author had to say about his new book and Kunal’s commitment to putting himself slightly out of his own comfort zone. During our conversation here, we dive into a bit more detail about why it’s tough for 30-s...

"What do you do?" is a question that is about as automatic as it gets when meeting someone new. It also happens to be dreaded by many, namely those who are undergoing career changes or hoping to seek out an identity outside of their 9-5. Posing the question "What do you love?" instead invites people to open up about the things that actually make them who they are and truly make...
