Episode 72 - "Ghosts of the Wilderness: An Everyday Guy’s Search for America’s Rare and Elusive Wildlife" with Daniel Toujours
It is the first episode of 2024 and it is an interview with Daniel Toujours, the author of “Ghosts of the Wilderness: An Everyday Guy’s Search for America’s Rare and Elusive Wildlife”. This episode took me a while to release as I wanted to finish his book prior to release (and editing is always a long game for me). I really enjoyed the book and recording this episode! I learned so much!
Daniel gives us many nuggets of information from how he started his hiking adventures, the different types of rock art (petroglyph and pictograph), animals he found in nature, acclimatization, the TMZ/30 mile zone, and finding ticks after hikes.
I truly enjoyed this interview with Daniel and I think that you will also enjoy. You can find Daniel’s book on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/Ghosts-Wilderness-Everyday-Americas-Wildlife-ebook/dp/B0CJ7QWRY5

Episode 71 - 2023 Was Not My Year
This is the outro to my 2023. This was not my year at all. I created a vision board for this year to make sure that I document the things that I want to do in 2024. This will be the year that I accomplish some remaining goals and dreams in the last year of my 20s!
See all of you lovelies in 2024!

Episode 70 - Reclaiming my Hacked Instagram Account
I got my highschool made Instagram account hacked. I am one of the fortunate people who was able to get my Instagram account back after a hacking and it was exhausting, challenging, and quite depressing. It is almost like a legal case and if you are willing to do the work and have the correct information, you can also get through this slow and tedious process of getting an instagram account back.
In this episode, I tell the story of how I got my deactivated Instagram account hacked, the process of getting my Instagram account back, important information that you should know in the event that this ever happens to you, and conclusion of where I am at today.
This is the email that I used to contact Instagram to get the ball rolling: support@instagram.com
I hope that this episode helps someone out there who is going through the stressful situation of having an Instagram account hacked. It's more common than you think.
P.S. KNOW YOUR ACCOUNT CENTRE INFORMATION. Know the date you created the account. This will save you so much stress and anxiety.

Bonus Episode 9 - Spotify Wrapped 2023 featuring WWE
I am here to defend myself and my choices!
Yes, my number 1 most listened to artist of 2023 is WWE… and contrary to popular belief, I am not embarrassed about this. WWE is my favourite soundtrack in life and I will never stop listening to my favourites.
I just felt the need to create a bonus episode to defend my choices in music and the fact that this is my most listened to artist.
Lastly, Rihanna was my #2 and Bad Bunny was my #4 so that proves that I do have a diverse musical taste.

Bonus Episode 8 - After Everything (A Movie Recap)
IT IS THE END OF AN ERA! I am so sad and emotional. Hardin and Tessa are end game and we get to see Hardin’s journey to the end. Thank you Josephine Langford and Hero Fiennes Tiffin for an amazing run.
While this may be a controversial take, I did quite enjoy this film. While it kind of strayed from the original story line, I thought it was well executed, the cinematography was good, and its lead up to the conclusion was effective.
In this episode, I give my thoughts about the final After movie, as well as a recap of the film.
I rarely cry but I did cry at the end of this film and this podcast recording. I also forgot to discuss Tessa’s awful bangs at the end but thats for someone else to take on.
I used my live recording of James Bay’s live version of “Us”, the Hessa official song, as the intro to this episode because it was fitting.
Tell me what you think about the film! I will miss the fandom, despite the issues we had towards the end. All good things must come to an end.
P.S. Anna Todd has teased the writing of another Hessa novel, so maybe it isn’t so over for us all, AFTER ALL!
