Hi, I'm Prachi B.! You’ll find me hunched over my laptop (definitely not doomscrolling, I swear) or buried in a book (current read: The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena). Because I'm a writer and a professional overthinker. I get paid to find the perfect words. And that's mostly good. Except I always have a lot on my mind. And I'm dumping it all in messy voice notes so you and I can pocket some "main character energy" in life's never-ending plot twists. Welcome to First Drafts...a space for you to spiral and find joy in the messy, painful, and embarrassing parts of life.

    EP #1: The Lies We Tell Ourselves to Avoid Feeling It All

    Welcome to the very first episode of First Drafts with Prachi B. In this debut episode, I take you on a beach walk with me to unpack the absolute scam that is spiritual detachment. Let’s be real: most of the time, detachment is just spiritual bypassing dressed up as enlightenment so people can run away from their uncomfortable feelings. I’m sharing a few deeply personal stories from my childhood—including the loss of my Uncle and my sweet dog, Jerry—to explain exactly why I am officially done with forced positivity. I talk about the moment my dad taught me the life-changing power of simply being pissed off and sitting with my rage instead of stuffing it down. I also break down my real-time framework for making decisions when I'm in the middle of an emotional storm. Because the goal isn't to float above your feelings like some unbothered monk. The goal is to stand right in the eye of the storm without losing your balance. Tune in, because I’m done glorifying my suffering, and I am definitely done shrinking myself. Let’s get into it. Love and nothing else, ~ Prachi B.

    Pilot - How I almost ruined my afternoon: Client Breakups to Personal Breakthroughs

    If you thought January 1st was the start of the new year, you’re doing it wrong. For me, the real shift happened today—February 17th—the first day of the Year of the Horse. [ Happy Lunar New Year to those celebrating!!] And honestly? I needed it, because 2025 was a total shit show. In this pilot episode of The First Draft, I’m taking you behind the scenes of a very messy afternoon. I’m talking about the moments when the universe decides to do a deep-clean of your life without asking for your permission first. This is The First Draft. You’re going to hear a loud notification ping in the middle. You’re going to hear my voice crack. You’re going to hear the raw, unedited tape I recorded on my phone five minutes after a client breakup. I didn't polish it because you can't find a breakthrough in a highlight reel. If you’re tired of the polished business world and want to find joy in the messy parts of life, stay for the next draft. Love you guys 3 Let's spiralllll . ~ Prachi B.
