    New Beginnings

    In this episode, we explore what it’s really like to start university. From moving to a new city and meeting new people to navigating newfound independence and academic expectations. We compare what incoming students expect university to be like with the reality experienced by students who have been here for a while. Together with Positive Psychologist and Student Life Liaison Dito Boerema, we discuss finding your people, balancing your studies with social life and rest, and giving yourself time to adjust. This episode is a reminder that university doesn’t always look the way you imagined—and that’s okay. Everyone starts somewhere, and there are many different ways to find your place.

    MEDITATION - Every Step Counts

    *Bonus feature: guided meditation* This meditation is designed to be practiced while walking, turning each step into an anchor for presence and grounding. As you connect with your senses and the rhythm of your body, you’ll discover that progress doesn’t need to be fast or grand — even the smallest steps move us forward. This practice is about arriving in the here and now, one breath and one step at a time.

    MEDITATION - Letting Go of Perfection

    *Bonus feature: guided meditation*  In this meditation, we take a closer look at the inner critic — that voice that insists we need to get everything just right. Through body awareness and soothing affirmations, we learn to soften perfectionism’s grip and allow space for mistakes, growth, and self-acceptance. This practice offers a reminder that worth isn’t tied to flawless performance — it’s found in being human.

    MEDITATION - Garden of Healthy Habits

    *Bonus feature: guided meditation*  In this meditation, we step into a calm inner garden where everyday habits take root. Guided through four areas — sleep, screen time, nutrition, and movement — you’ll explore gentle affirmations that nurture balance and self-care. Together, we’ll reframe habits not as chores or obligations, but as acts of kindness toward yourself. This practice is an invitation to grow with patience, compassion, and intention.

    No One Knows

    In this episode, we explore the hidden challenges of studying with a disability — especially when that disability isn’t immediately visible. From ADHD and autism to chronic illness and mental health struggles, invisible disabilities can lead to feelings of shame, isolation, and misunderstanding. Together with student counsellor Joelle Schut, we dive into the personal and emotional experiences of navigating student life with a disability. You’ll also hear soundbites from students who open up about their own journeys, offering insight and encouragement. We discuss how to recognize invisible barriers, what real inclusion looks like, and how fellow students can be more mindful and supportive. You're not alone — and this episode is here to remind you of that.
