  1. I stopped reacting to rude people

    I stopped reacting to rude people

    Ever had someone just… throw off your whole mood? Not with words or insults, but with tone or attitude alone. It can leave you frozen, frustrated, and questioning yourself. In this episode, I share a moment that taught me there’s a third way—beyond reacting with anger or shutting down. It’s about choosing kindness with boundaries, even when people are rude, distant, or unreachable. We’ll talk about why most of someone’s negativity isn’t actually about you, how to protect your own peace, and why responding kindly can be a powerful choice—even when it doesn’t seem to change anything. Whether you’re navigating work, friendships, or family, this episode offers a practical perspective on keeping your cool, standing your ground, and choosing empathy in moments that could easily ruin your day.

  2. I was never as good as I thought I was

    I was never as good as I thought I was

    i believed i was a great dancer. or at least, i thought i was. in this episode, i revisit my old dance videos and face the truth about what i used to think i could do. from winning a small award at 19 to being labeled the “good student,” i held onto an identity that made me proud… and also kept me performing for others. when a contemporary dance team posted an audition notice, i filmed my submission and went back to watch my past performances. the gap between what i thought and what i actually saw was humbling, and it made me reflect on what it really means to be “good.” this episode is about effort, growth, and embracing the messy, imperfect versions of ourselves. sometimes trying is the point. not perfection.

    was I really listening?

    I thought I was a good listener. But one dinner changed my mind. Maybe loving someone isn’t about saying the right thing.Maybe it’s just about listening. if you want to see me, come check my video on Youtube: this is hazel This is a public episode.

    Your second language will change your life

    You might think you started learning a new language just for travel or easier conversations. But while you’re practicing words and pronunciation, something much deeper is happening. In this episode, I share how language learning quietly reshapes your brain, builds empathy, and changes the way you see yourself and the world. It’s not just about communication, it’s about personal growth, deeper connections, and becoming a more open version of yourself. This is a public episode.

    Do we really need New Year’s resolutions?

    So I actually said a New Year’s resolution out loud last year for the first time ever and it got me thinking. Do we really need them or can we just do things because we feel like it, not because we have to. if you want to see me, come check my video on Youtube: this is hazel This is a public episode.
