Welcome to the first episode of 2024! Thank you for tuning into Vol 1 of TOTR in 2024: Our Professional Growth Era. I wanted to kick-start this "era" by talking about something that we've all felt, seen, experienced: Imposter Syndrome. Regardless of the phase of life we're in, it's so natural to feel like we're lacking in some capacity, not doing enough or that we don't deserve the things we've achieved. And while I don't need to tell you why we need to overcome this mindset, I...

This week, I wanted to chat about the importance of Awe, and things that change our perspective on life, our "problems" and things of the sort. I title this episode "The Importance Of Our Insignificance" not to imply that we don't matter, but rather that it's comforting to think that in the grand scheme of things, our existence isn't as large as we perceive it....

WELCOME BACK! I missed you last week, but very much needed a break :) This week, join me on a solo episode as we unpack one of the many mysteries of our mind: overthinking.

Hello and Welcome Back! The most exciting part of being 23 and living in NYC is that I am living the life OF MY DREAMS. But sometimes, getting intimidated by our dreams is easy if we don't have the right map to follow. Success is rooted not in talent, but more so in the discipline.

On this episode,...

Welcome back to pt2 of my conversation with Yukta, where we talk about setting a high standard for the people in your life and actually cherishing being single.
