  • SELF-IMPROVEMENT

Created for overthinkers, deep feelers, and anyone who’s been told they’re “too much." We’re not a normal podcast. We’re the Eunoia podcast. Hosted by Alessia Maria, a neuroscience and economics student with a tendency to overthink, the podcast explores identity, rebuilding, and the quieter parts of being human. The show was born from lived experience and shaped by transitions, uncertainty, and the process of becoming someone new. Life is messy. This podcast makes room for that. You can also find quieter, in-between moments shared as a photo journal on Instagram, along with a small Substack space for ongoing conversation. All links are available in the show notes. Listener support links are always available in the show notes amariavn.substack.com
