Have you ever had a 2 AM "what am I even doing" spiral? You are in the right place. The post-grad fog has plenty of question marks and not nearly enough honest answers. Mind Set Go is where I interview people who inspire me and brain dump the tools that are actually helping me figure it out. If you're an overthinker, tired of people-pleasing, or are just career confused — this is for you.

8. Inside the Mindset of a Mental Health Clinician

Mandy Heffernan is not only a licensed therapist with a Masters in Social Work from Columbia, she's also one of my best friend's since freshman year of college! In this episode we get into it all: the difference between stress and anxiety, science-backed tricks for calming your nervous system in real time, and why naming what you're feeling is more powerful than you think. Grab your headphones, I promise you will walk away feeling lighter.

7. Inside the Mindset of a Sports Psychologist

I met Harley in a coffee shop last week... After ONE convo, I started winning again in my squash league! Seriously! Harley's a grad student studying Sport Performance Psychology, and his path here was anything but linear (teaching, almost going to law school, a nonprofit detour) before he found the thing that actually lights him up. We get into why overthinking kills performance, self-compassion as a trainable skill, how to reframe failure, and what flow state actually requires.. plus a live mini coaching session where Harley helps me work through my own competitive anxiety in real time. You don't have to be an athlete for this one to hit. Enjoy!

6. The Mindset Lessons I Wish I'd Known Sooner

If you're in your 20s or 30s trying to figure out what you're doing with your life, consider this episode your cheat code. Photographer & entrepreneur Geni Bean has built more than a business... she's built a legacy rooted in confidence, resilience, and radical self-belief. From leaving corporate marketing to running Pink Owl, to redefining what beauty and aging really mean, Geni is proof that your winding, messy, unplanned path is exactly the one you were supposed to take. If you've ever felt like you don't fit the mold, this one's for you. It's the kind of conversation you didn't know you needed until you're 20 minutes in and taking notes.

5. The Mindset of Saying No to Say Yes to Something Better

What happens when you're good at your job but can't stand it? From the State Department to Wayfair to culinary school in Ireland... Charlotte has followed anything BUT the typical pipeline. We get into losing her brother at 12, people-pleasing through a corporate career, and why a little doubt is actually a good sign. This one's for anyone who's been praised for work that doesn't fulfill them and can't figure out why that feels so hollow. PS: My favorite part of this episode is that Charlotte is 24. She doesn't have it all figured out. She's IN the work & I'll be bringing her back after she finishes school too. Stay tuned !

4. Inside the Mindset of a Former Truffle Importer Turned Mental Health Venture Capitalist

Shivan Bhavnani has been a finance analyst, a truffle importer, a LinkedIn creator, and is now a mental health venture capitalist. That's only the tip of the iceberg! If that career path sounds chaotic, it was. But talking to Shivan, it makes complete sense. We get into what it feels like to walk away from the "right" path, the psychology of hiring, and what happens when you stop asking for permission to go after what you actually want. If you've ever felt like you were playing the wrong sport, this one's for you!

3. Quotes That Changed Our Mindset

Fedora joins the chat & we use our favorite quotes as an excuse to go way too deep. We get into social media spirals, the post-grad fog, and why courage looks a lot less like bravery and more like... well, you'll see. If you've ever felt like you were performing a version of yourself, this one's for you.
