Is money itself truly the root of all evil? Or is just a tool to magnify what is already there within us? Perhaps it just adds value and weight to whatever it is close to and used for? In this episode, I question this outdated judgmental assumption and explore possibilities for embracing wealth without it corrupting our minds, choices and souls.

The title says it all. In this episode, I go through all the reasons why I have been reconsidering my previous lifegoals of getting married and having children since the pandemic of 2020.  I question if at this point in my life with everything going on with my dreams, goals and creative projects, if I have the time, energy, patience and desire to invest into the quintessential family life.  Is it for me? Is it for everyone? Let's explore...

It has been over a month since my father passed in mid-June of this year, 2022. In this podcast, I reflect on his life and what it has felt like to grieve his death for this first month without him here with me and my family. I also share a mini-life update and what I've been up to since his passing.

For anyone who is anticipating the death of a loved one, perhaps an elderly family member or friend, this episode is for you to see how the grieving process could potentially go from another person's perspective. I think it seems a lot worse before it happens because you don't know what to expect, how you or the people around you will react to the person's passing. But, life goes on and I am finding that I am already able to find joy and appreciation for the little things in life and able to move forward with my goals and plans despite still grieving the loss of my father. 

He would want me to be happy, healthy and successful and that is what I intend to do with my life in my own way.

Wishing whomever listens to this podcast much peace and comfort at this time.
