This podcast allows for me to express how I feel about absolutely anything. In the past, I have been told that I've ranted about so many interesting; but also, dumb ideas. In other words, I always have something to say about literally everything! So follow along my vocalized feelings with this podcast!

    Shooting Your Shot

    In this episode, I talk about the idea of people shooting their shot and why I have a problem with how people respond to it. In all honesty, I think that too many people have politicized the idea of someone trying to compliment someone else in person. Obviously, the society has exposed the dangers and the misfortunes that have happened with literal psychotic and sociopathic people who have gone too far; however, I have never seen the problem with someone who takes time of their day to compliment you in person and then leaves you alone afterwards. No matter what, you will be uncomfortable but it is important to know which type of uncomfortableness you're dealing with when it comes to a situation like that. I think it is very odd that we have to denormalize the idea of someone trying to compliment/flirt with you in person when that's how in-person interactions started.  I hope you enjoy today's episode!

    "Do something that makes you happy"

    In this episode, I talk about the issue with the mentality behind "do something that makes you happy" in accordance with a social situation I was put in where I had to justify why I wanted to pursue a career in the field of law. To be completely honest and real with you, that social interaction I had with them about my future goals and career field, made me feel extremely dumb-founded. I don't understand why there is this stigma about how WANTING a 9-5 job experience means that you won't be happy - because I can attest to that statement, that I assure you I will be just fine. I hope you enjoy today's episode!

    Recognize Your Roots Canada

    In this episode, I hold myself accountable by expressing my anger and frustrations towards my own actions as someone that identifies as Canadian and as someone who is a settler to Canada. This episode is not trying to cancel Canada as a whole nor is it trying to "cancel" Canada Day. This episode is a mere expression of understanding how Canada actually came to be and the establishments of settler colonialism has shaped Canada in the way that it is today. It has been far too long that Canada only just now, begins to realize their political and social injustice towards Indigenous people. It is heartbreaking, and as someone who identities as Canadian, I want to express my sorrows and my willingness to do better, learn more, and be more educated regarding these topics. Change needs to happen WITHIN the governmental system.

    Maturity Levels

    In this episode, I talk about one of my biggest pet peeves - lack of maturity. This is no way, shape, or form of me showing how "mature" I am, but recognizing the difference of maturity in myself compared to many people I have encountered in my life. I am not trying to say that I know what being mature means but through my experiences thus far, I think I have a pretty good grasp on what it's about ;). Nonetheless, I rant about what I have seen in people who have thought that they were mature; but have completely misread their actions.  I hope you enjoy today's episode!

    Customer's Always Right is BS

    In this episode, I talk about the inconsiderate and ignorance that customers acquire while shopping for material goods within a company's perimeters. To begin, I also mention the specific case regarding Demi Lovato and her issue with a local fro-yo shop in LA. Her reaction to the company's labelling of product was very ignorant as she failed to consider how that business operates through company morals and company protocols. Moreover, her behaviour of wanting company's to "do better" with their labelling is the epitome of everything that is wrong with this myth of "the customer's always right."  I hope you enjoy today's episode!

    "spoiled"

    In this episode, I talk about how many people have associated me with the idea that I am an only child and that my family is wealthy. THIS IS THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT MYSELF THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD. I wanted to talk about this because it is something that comes up in my life quite often and I really wanted to just de-bunk this misunderstanding. Money does not define me and it should not be viewed with little value. I hope you like this short episode!

    Social Media

    In this episode, I talk about how I have viewed social media for myself. Despite its negative connotations that it has acquired, social media for me has been nothing but a form of creative expression and a display of motivation for myself. However, I am aware that everyone uses social media differently; hence, everyone's personal discretion to social media will also differ. With that being said, that does not mean that just because someone has a negative feeling with social media, everyone should feel the same. Everyone uses their platforms differently and respect amongst each purpose should be upheld :)  Hope you enjoy today's episode!
