    When Knowledge Isn’t Enough: Turning What You Know Into Who You Are

    What if knowing more isn’t the same as growing more?Could all the information we consume actually be keeping us from wisdom?What if real growth begins—not when you learn something new—but when you live it?Are you learning to prove yourself, or to understand yourself?And what would happen if you stopped collecting knowledge and started embodying it?   In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia explores the difference between knowledge and wisdom—and what it means to live what you learn. She reflects on how easy it is to consume information, collect quotes, and mistake understanding for transformation. Drawing from her own experience in the wellness space, Radhi shares how she shifted from learning to impress to learning to express—from knowing to truly living.   Through honesty and gentle insight, she reminds us that wisdom isn’t found in what you know, but in what you practice when no one’s watching.   In this episode, you’ll learn: The key difference between knowledge and wisdom Why consuming more doesn’t always mean growing more How to turn information into daily action Questions to help you tell if you’re living from ego or from truth Simple ways to transform learning into lasting change This isn’t about knowing everything—it’s about living what matters.   Follow Radhi:https://www.instagram.com/radhidevlukia/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxWe9A4kMf9V_AHOXkGhCzQhttps://www.facebook.com/radhidevlukia1/https://www.tiktok.com/@radhidevlukia See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Jay & Radhi Talk About Why Men Feel So Lonely

    Today, Jay and Radhi explore why it feels like so many men are losing touch with real friendships, and the quiet epidemic of loneliness that often goes unnoticed. Jay shares surprising research showing that more men than ever report having few or no close friends and opens up about his own journey of maintaining meaningful male friendships across continents. Together, he and Radhi explore how cultural conditioning and social expectations have shaped the way men connect, often through shared activities rather than emotional honesty, and why vulnerability can still feel risky for so many. Through humor and genuine reflection, Jay and Radhi invite us to rethink what friendship really means, how we can create spaces of emotional safety, and build communities that feel like home. Jay reminds us that friendship isn’t innate; it’s something we grow into through practice, vulnerability, and care. In this episode, you'll learn: How to Build Real Male Friendships How to Be Vulnerable Without Fear How to Recognize When You’re Lonely How to Find Friends Who Match Your Energy How to Open Up Emotionally in Conversations Friendships don’t just happen; they grow through intention and care.

The courage to reach out might be exactly what someone else has been waiting for too.

    Jay & Radhi Talk About the Pressure and Expectations Around Parenthood

    In this first episode of On Purpose with Radhi, Jay opens up a conversation many of us have faced but rarely unpack, being asked, “When are you having kids?” What seems like a casual question often carries a weight that touches on biology, cultural expectations, financial realities, and deeply personal struggles. Together, Jay and Radhi peel back the layers of why this question can feel so triggering, especially for women, and why the assumptions behind it often miss the heart of the matter. They explore how family pressure, societal timelines, and even social media comparisons can make people feel like they’re “behind,” while statistics actually show that having children later in life has become the norm. From the challenges of IVF and miscarriages to the fear of balancing career and motherhood, Jay and Radhi shed light on the unspoken realities couples quietly carry. They remind us that true preparation for parenthood isn’t about perfect timing, it’s about awareness, acceptance, and readiness for change.  In this episode, you'll learn: How to Handle Pressure About Having Kids How to Prepare for the Real Changes of Parenthood How to Know if You’re Ready for Children How to Separate Society’s Timeline From Your Own How to Support Friends Struggling With Fertility The milestones that matter most are the ones that feel true to you, not the ones dictated by outside voices. Fulfillment is not found in comparison but in living with intention, compassion, and alignment to your own values. With Love and Gratitude, Jay Shetty What We Discuss: 00:00 Intro 00:45 When Are You Going to Have Kids? 03:53 So, Do You Want to Have Kids? 07:57 Are You Prepared to Raise Kids? 12:31 A Different Mindset on Being a Parent 16:23 Delaying Parenthood Because of Financial Constraints 21:16 Parenthood Equates to Success 23:20 Can a Child Fix a Broken Relationship? 29:02 Are You Willing to Sacrifice Your Career to Become a Parent? 32:32 Live the Life You Want For Yourself Episode Resources: Radhi Devlukia | Website Radhi Devlukia | YouTube Radhi Devlukia | Instagram Radhi Devlukia | Facebook Radhi Devlukia | TikTok Joyfull A Really Good Cry See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Stop People Pleasing

    Do you keep saying “yes” when every part of you wants to say “no”?Are you exhausted from overgiving, overapologizing, and overextending yourself?What if people pleasing isn’t kindness at all—but self-abandonment in disguise?   In this eye-opening solo episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia unpacks the truth about people pleasing: why it feels like safety but actually chips away at your self-worth, your energy, and even your relationships. Radhi breaks down the hidden cost of constantly putting others first, how it disconnects you from your authentic self, and why being agreeable doesn’t actually bring you closer to people—it creates distance.   With honesty and compassion, Radhi shares practical steps to start breaking free from the cycle: how to set boundaries, clarify your capacity, and pause before you say yes. She also explores the hard truth that other people’s reactions are not your responsibility—and why your integrity matters more than their approval.   This episode is about rebuilding trust with yourself, honoring your limits, and showing up as the real you—without guilt, fear, or apology.   In this episode, you’ll learn: Why people pleasing is rooted in fear, not kindness How to recognize the physical signs that a boundary has been crossed Practical scripts you can use to say no without overexplaining Why resentment is your body’s signal that you’ve overextended How to rewrite the old story: “I need to please to be loved” Why doing less with the right intention matters more than doing more with the wrong one   If you’ve been disappearing into the version of yourself everyone else wants, this episode is your reminder that you are lovable, worthy, and enough—without having to earn it.
