  • Aligning Your Academic Goals with Your Values and Passions
    Jul 18 2024

    In this episode, we explore how academia can sometimes push us away from our truth and how to recognize when this is happening. We discuss the importance of aligning your academic path with your values and passions, and why this alignment is crucial for long-term fulfillment and success.


    We delve into the process of finding and pursuing a major or career path that truly resonates with who you are. Sharing my journey, I explain why I chose biology and how this decision was deeply connected to my interests and values.


    We address the common fear that changing your path or course is a reflection of your worth or ability. On the contrary, making such changes can be a powerful act of self-honor and integrity. We discuss how you dishonor yourself and those around you by not following what genuinely calls to you.


    Join us for an insightful discussion and learn practical strategies to stay true to yourself.

  • The Power of Vulnerability
    Jul 5 2024

    In today’s episode, we explore the profound strength found in being vulnerable and authentic. We discuss how vulnerability, often perceived as a weakness, is a powerful tool for building deeper connections and fostering personal growth. Sharing our true selves can lead to stronger, more genuine relationships and a more fulfilling life.


    I share a personal story about my own experiences with vulnerability, highlighting moments when opening up led to unexpected strength and resilience. This narrative underscores the transformative power of embracing our authentic selves, even when it feels uncomfortable or risky.


    We also touch on the current state of affairs in our government and acknowledge that it’s okay to feel worried and uncertain. Vulnerability in expressing our concerns can foster community and support, reminding us that we are not alone in our feelings.


    To encourage you to embrace your own vulnerability, we suggest an actionable step: journal about a time when being vulnerable led to a positive outcome in your life. Reflecting on these moments can help reinforce the strength and authenticity that come from being open and honest.


    Join us for a heartfelt discussion that will inspire you to find strength in your vulnerability and embrace your authentic self.

  • Intuition in Academia
    Jul 5 2024

    In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of intuition and how to harness it for better decision-making. We start by exploring the essence of intuition, that inner voice or gut feeling guiding our choices. However, intuition can sometimes be clouded by external factors such as stress, fear, and societal expectations. We discuss common barriers that may obscure our intuitive insights and how to recognize them.


    To strengthen your intuition and build self-trust, I share practical exercises that can help you connect with your inner wisdom.


    Our discussion includes personal anecdotes on how to tune into intuition, especially during moments of uncertainty. We emphasize that intuition is seldom wrong; rather, our ego, driven by a need for safety and comfort, often misguides us.


    Try keeping a log for the next week on decisions you make based on intuition and the outcomes that follow.
