    Solo Episode: What He Said Stuck With Me: A Story of Patience

    I used to think control was my ally, until life showed me it was actually one of my greatest teachers. In this episode, I reflect on two eye-opening experiences: revisiting Northwestern for homecoming two years post-grad, and an encounter with an Indian family visiting Chicago that challenged me to reassess my perspective on living in America.  Both moments revealed my slowly softening relationship with control and marked my ongoing growth in surrender, patience, and resolve.
