In this episode of The Belle Post, I'm excited to dive into my journey of transitioning out of undergrad and stepping into a new chapter. I'll talk about my gap semester goals, the principles that are helping me navigate this time, and why I'm looking forward to the fresh opportunities ahead. Join me as I reflect on growth, share my excitement for what's coming next, and explore how to make the most of this in-between phase.
In this episode, I’m joined by Carly Heltzel to dive into the experience of building new friendships abroad while keeping old ones alive back home. Moving to a new place alone can bring a lot of anxiety, especially when you’re unsure how to connect with new people while trying to stay close with friends from home. Carly and I share how we navigated forming strong bonds in new environments and the challenges of maintaining long-distance friendships. Plus, we offer some tips for finding balance between the two worlds and keeping meaningful connections no matter where you are.
In this episode of The Belle Post, I reflect on my time studying abroad in South Africa and how it reshaped my understanding of boredom.

Tune in as I discuss how embracing boredom became a path to deeper self-discovery, creativity, and connection.
