Ep 58. Making Sense of Epiphanies
I had it all wrong. My physical, spiritual, mental and emotional well-being, that is. Although I was heading in a somewhat right direction, I was slowly misaligning myself from the path I was supposed to take, and I didn't realize that until appendicitis did that for me, or in this case, God.

Ep 57. The Great Social Filtration
Notice the people who stuck by you when you're rebuilding yourself; those are the ones you should keep close to. Not everyone is meant to stay, and it's hard to accept at first, but once you do, it feels like a breath of fresh air.

Ep 56*. Appendicitis - A (Super) Close Call
I may have almost died. That's why I've been off the grid for the last week. I got perforated appendicitis, and it was BAD when the doctors thankfully got to remove it in time before it got much worse!
If you're into health and wellness, listen to this. Cheers, and I hope it helps! -
Ep 55. You’re already someone
Firstly, I apologize for the absence in the last 2 weeks. I had surgery for perforated appendicitis and had a long recovery to go through and still am, frankly. But anyways, I recorded this just before my appendix ruptured so hopefully that means sth lol. Enjoy :)

Ep 54*. Whatever it takes
It's crazy how you can make your body adjust to your state of mind. If you told me to run a half marathon while weight training 9 months ago, I'd tell you: "No chance. You're crazy."
Long story short, I ran my first unofficial half-marathon a month ago, another three after, and, in about two months, my first official half-marathon race.
Key takeaway: You can do anything you set your mind and heart to, no matter how challenging. -
Ep 53. Personal Project Realities, Screw Stress, & A Life Update
Personal Project Realities
It's hard AF. School teaches you how to be disciplined, bounding you to grades and academic progress toward graduation, but when you're on your own? You're only bound by the rules and systems you create for yourself.
Screw Stress
The best way to kill stress is simply by taking action. There's no point in ruminating or overthinking what could've been or should've been; instead, focus on the step ahead of you and move forward.
Life Update
Listen to the end to find out about my love life and my big announcement.
