Summer Reflection: On the Meaning of Life
What is the meaning of life? Perhaps we should be asking, how do we make meaning of life?

Summer Reflection: On Disagreeing with People
How do we disagree with people? My instinct is to be defensive and to convince the other person why they should see things my way. But what if I entered arguments/disagreements with empathy, especially when it comes to socio-cultural and political topics? People are people before they’re our “enemies.”

Summer Reflection: On Showing Up For Myself
What does it mean to show up for ourselves and how do we do it? In today's episode, I share how I've been working on being there for myself every single day — it's no walk in the park.

Summer Reflection: On Letting Go of What No Longer Serves Me
Have you ever felt guilty for no longer liking what you liked before? Or perhaps ending a friendship? I know that feeling all too well. Today’s summer reflection is about saying a very kind goodbye to the things and people that don’t contribute to my life anymore and being okay with that.

Summer Reflection: On Unlearning & Learning
Welcome to my first summer reflection! Every Thursday in June and July, I will be sharing a short episode (less than 7 mins hopefully) about something I've been learning or thinking about recently or how I've grown as a human. Summer is such an inspiring time for me, and I love reflecting on who I am as a person, and I hope you enjoy listening to my musings. This first summer reflection is about being intentional about how I engage with social issues I care about and navigating how social media plays a role in this.
