    I Had To Ghost My Stalker (ft. Elena Falcone)

    Elena and I bond over our shared experiences with having to deal with a stalker/potential-to-be-a-stalker. But, before getting into the juicy stuff, Elena opens up about her unique upbringing with bi-racial parents, and how her mother's Christian background and father's resistance to religion have shaped her life. We also talk about noticeable societal pressures (especially as women) on having children, prompting us to reflect on the profound responsibility of bringing a new life into the world. Our paths crossed in South Korea, where, despite our opposing MBTI types, we managed to go through thick and thin during our exchange semester. Elena has been an absolute wonder to spend quality time with and has shown me new perspectives on life that I plan on carrying with me.

    This Is Not Going To Be A Sad Podcast

    On this episode, get to know me while I share one of my journal entries from 2015... by the way, I used to be such a dramatic 7th grader. I touch on some topics I'd like to cover with the guests and friends I'll bring on in the future, as well as my history of caring way too much about what others thought about me. For more episode, please find me on Spotify, Apple, or Youtube!

    Stop Putting Us in a Box (ft. Dayoung Lee)

    Dayoung, a native South Korean university student, has joined us to share her experiences with group blind dates (or meetings), learning English, her cheating ex, and MBTIs. We also discuss judgments older native Koreans have toward foreigners, the NYC dream, and the concept of the right timing in relationships, as well as not giving up. Dayoung and I met in an English writing class here in South Korea and quickly felt compatible with each other. As I mentioned, her drive and diligence are unmistakable aspects of her character. Listening to her dreams truly inspired me about mine, and stay tuned until we reunite in NYC to record another episode.

    Having Low Standards Makes Us Prey (ft. Kim Ngo)

    Have you ever had low standards or are you currently working on raising them? Well, Kim and I talk about our history of lowering our standards, boundaries, and self-respect in relationships and how that has had negative consequences on our confidence, esteem, and worth. We also discuss the concept of depending on our partners to avoid feeling lonely, situationships, broken egos, breaking the 'no contact rule,' and naturally protective men. Although Kim and I have known each other for less than 3 months, I can confidently say that she has become one of my best friends. From the first time we hung out, we instantaneously clicked and haven't looked back since. For anyone listening to this, I hope you know that you're not alone, and Kim and I believe that you deserve the best... oh yeah also to never settle for anything less.

    A Glimpse Into Korean Night Life (ft. Nammu Eliaerts)

    Full of laughter, Nammu and I talk about the ease of consumerism, Koreans fetishizing foreigners, clubbing culture, puking on the subway, feeling very single, and our thoughts about the transition of going back to our home cities. In Korean, "Nammu" or "나무," means tree. Although this is her Belgian name, I've come to realize that she symbolizes the calmness and growth of a tree. Like I mentioned in the first few seconds of the episode, I am truly grateful to have met and befriended her.

    The Three Grooms and One Murderous Bride

    Giving the two nights I went out as a murderous bride with two separate titles (the proposal and the widow) listen to find out how I spent my first Halloween in Seoul, South Korea. I was fake proposed to by a Parisian. I also met my uncle and a guy I matched with on a dating app for the first time on the same night. And I was icked out by a crush that lasted for a few months, all while having my ego boosted for no good. It was a spontaneous two nights filled with excitement, stress, and dancing. I'm realizing that these are the moments that make me excited to record an episode, so that I can look back fondly on my youthful experiences.

    Navigating Long Distance Relationships & First Date Rule (Sara M.)

    Sara shares the ups and downs of her ongoing long-distance relationship with her boyfriend, who lives in her hometown in Germany, while she is doing her semester abroad in South Korea. On top of that, we talk about Sara's experience with being the minority for the first time ever, our goals for the rest of the months we have here, and a first-date rule I created after going on a few dates with Mr. Scone. Sara and I met during our semester abroad and instantly connected. There was no doubt about us becoming friends, and she has consistently shown me that there is always a more positive perspective from which to view things.

    What I Didn't Learn The First Time (ft. Tiffany Nguyen)

    Tiffany opens up about her insecure ex, the responsibility of being a translator for her mother, strengthening her sense of self-worth, and love languages. As mentioned, Tiff’s podcast (The Present Moment) gave me the final push I needed to launch my own podcast. Tiff has incredible, unforgettable energy, and I’m thankful to have had the opportunity to pick her brain on various topics that have helped shape her into who she is today.
