I Miss Simpler Times

Season 2 — Episode 11 I Miss Simpler Times Born in 1987, I’ve had a front row seat to watching the world completely change. In this episode, I reflect on growing up before smartphones, social media, and constant notifications took over everyday life. From cassette tapes and portable CD players to AIM, MySpace, and the early internet days, this is a conversation about how much life, technology, and human connection have changed over the years. We talk about how fast life feels now, how disconnected people have become despite always being online, and why so many of us miss a time when things felt slower, quieter, and more real. Sometimes it’s not the old technology we miss… it’s how life felt when we were living through it.

I Hate My Life. Not the People In It.

Season 2 — Episode 10 I Hate My Life. Not the People In It. Sometimes the hardest thing to explain is that you don’t hate the people around you… you’re just exhausted by life itself. In this episode, I talk about the quiet burnout that comes with adulthood—the pressure, the routines, the mental exhaustion, and the feeling of becoming disconnected from yourself over time. This is a real conversation about struggling internally while still loving the people in your life, feeling guilty for being unhappy when you “should” be grateful, and learning the difference between wanting to escape your life… and simply wanting peace. If you’ve been carrying weight silently lately, this session is for you.

I Thought I’d Be Further By Now

Season 2 — Episode 9 I Thought I’d Be Further By Now At some point, we’ve all had this thought… “I should be further along by now.” In this episode, I talk about what it feels like to be putting in the work—showing up, staying consistent, making the right choices—and still feeling like progress is slower than expected. From the mental battle to the frustration with the scale, this is a real conversation about the part of the journey nobody really talks about. The phase where you’re doing everything right… and it still feels like you’re behind. Sometimes progress doesn’t look the way we expect it to. That doesn’t mean it’s not happening.

Looking Back: My Life and The Bench Session

Season 2 — Episode 8 Looking Back: My Life and The Bench Session In this episode, I take a step back and talk about the journey that led me here. From life experiences to the lessons that shaped the way I see the world, this is a more personal session about where I’ve been, what I’ve learned. Sometimes it’s important to pause, look back, and understand the road that brought you here. This episode is one of those moments.

Stop Chasing Happiness. Find Peace Instead.

Season 2 — Episode 7 Stop Chasing Happiness. Find Peace Instead. We spend so much time chasing happiness… but nobody really talks about what comes with it. In this episode, we break down why happiness was never meant to last, how every high comes with a low, and why constantly chasing that feeling can leave you stuck in a cycle. We also get into something real— how loving someone can be the best thing in your life… and also the hardest. Because no matter how it plays out, love always comes with the risk of loss. So maybe the goal isn’t to be happy all the time. Maybe the goal is to find peace in the middle of it all.
