mediocrity as self preservation | #AsTold By OG Ep 4

hello and (finally) welcome back to another episode of the #AsTold podcast! today i’m talking about how i’m working towards preserving myself and my sanity during this difficult transitionary time of my life - and somehow that just means being mediocre. i strive to be excellent but i currently can’t be and that’s okay! it’s okay to take a step back and operate at the bare minimum until you’re ready to come back again. i hope you enjoy this podcast episode and please do leave me some feedback!

for lonely girls | #AsTold By OG Ep 3

hello and welcome back to another episode of the #AsTold podcast! today i’m getting a bit vulnerable and talking about loneliness, love and relationships as well as things i wish i knew and advice for people who want to get back out there. obviously this advice is subjective and not all-encompassing - and to a certain extent you just have to let me cook because this is a note to self more than it is anything else. let us all be brave and discerning enough to love again, only when it is good for us. also - my apologies for any glitchy sound! my microphone seemed to have a spotty connection so you may hear some frazzled moments.

a lesson on forgiveness | #AsTold By OG Ep 2

hello and welcome to another episode of the #AsTold podcast! today we’re talking about forgiveness and how i’ve come to understand it and apply it into my life. obviously this comes with a lot of disclaimers and caveats but i hope you can still find something valuable and meaningful in this. i'm trying to articulate my newfound understanding of forgiveness grace, karma and how to put the baggage down.

find your way back | #AsTold By OG Ep 1

hello friends and welcome to the inaugural episode of my new baby, the #AsTold podcast! i am very nervous to be putting this out there because i also know it’s not as great as i want it to be yet - but in time i will grow and get better and i owe that growth to myself and in order to get there, we need to just start. so please excuse my nasally voice, unfocused camera and rambling while i lose my train of thought… we’ll get there!  in the meantime - welcome to the podcast about life, love, pop culture and navigating your 20-somethings as told by me, foyin og. today we're discussing how I'm finding my way back to myself and what that means in the midst of purposelessness, anxiety and feeling like you're stuck in limbo.
