Unmute with Priya: Finding Your Voice at Midlife

Midlife, Divorce, Menopause & Finding Yourself Again with Angela Burk

What happens when women hit midlife and realize they’ve spent years living by rules that were never actually made for them? In this episode, I sit down with Angela Burk, author of Real Girls Guide to Midlife, for an honest conversation about divorce, menopause, identity shifts, boundaries, people pleasing, and the slow process of rediscovering yourself after decades of shrinking to make everyone else comfortable. We talk about the pressure women carry, the relationships that change when you finally find your voice, and why midlife can feel both devastating and liberating at the same time. Angela’s honesty, humor, and perspective make this one of those conversations that feels deeply validating if you’re in the middle of your own transition and wondering what comes next.

Learning to Be Still and Trust Yourself with Gayathri Narayanan

In this episode, I sit down with Gayathri Narayanan, founder of Myndtree, to talk about what it really means to slow down and come back to yourself. After building a successful career in tech, Gayathri shares how burnout, questioning, and a deeper pull toward something more led her to step away and create a life centered around mindfulness and meditation. We talk about the myths around meditation, why it’s not about clearing your mind or doing it perfectly, and how small, consistent practices can shift the way you experience your life. This conversation is about creating space, learning to trust yourself, and finding a way to be present in the middle of everything that’s happening.

What’s Really Keeping You Stuck (and Why Hypnosis Works) — with Tim Shurr

Why is it so hard to change something you know isn’t working? In this conversation, I sit down with Tim Shurr to unpack what’s really going on underneath the patterns we can’t seem to break. We talk about the subconscious mind, why your brain is wired for safety not happiness, and how that’s often what keeps you stuck in the same cycles even when you’re fully aware of them. Tim shares how hypnosis works, what it actually does, and why it can help you shift things at a deeper level instead of just trying harder on the surface. If you’ve ever felt frustrated with yourself for not changing, this episode will help you understand why and what’s really possible when you start working with your mind instead of against it.
