    For a long time, I believed fixing my relationship with food meant more discipline, better rules, or the right diet. It didn’t. In this short solo episode, I share my personal reflections on food, habits, and awareness — and what actually helped me move away from control and guilt. This is not about dieting or perfection. It’s about understanding yourself, listening to your body, and approaching food with more honesty and ease.

    In this solo episode, I share my personal journey of starting and evolving my podcast, Tea for Two, and how that experience quietly led me into a more intentional, wellness-focused lifestyle. From showing up consistently when no one was watching, to navigating self-doubt, growth, and clarity — this episode is a reflection on what it really takes to build something meaningful while staying aligned with yourself. I also share the key lessons I’ve learned along the way — about consistency, purpose, and creating a life that feels grounded, not rushed. If you’re in a season of transition, rebuilding, or simply trying to live more intentionally, this episode is for you. Anyway, if this episode resonated, I’ve created something gentle for you. The Soft Reset Menu is now live — a simple way to reset your Move, Meal & Mind intentionally. Think of it as a calm starting point, not a challenge.

    Living abroad can look exciting on the outside, but it often asks your body and mind to adapt in quiet ways.

We share how movement, hydration, nourishment, and daily rituals became more than habits — they became anchors. A conversation about grounding yourself when home is far away, and why wellness becomes non-negotiable when you’re building a life in a new place.
