And just like that, I have very officially graduated college, am saying goodbye to the people I knew best in college, and moving away from my college town for good! This episode recaps my graduation weekend and how I'm feeling now that it's over and the future feels very real!
It feels like it's been forever since I last posted an episode on here but I am officially back and ready to keep bringing you weekly episodes! Today we're debriefing (some of) my travel journey and talking about my experience solo traveling for the first time, staying in hostels, and making friends along the journey! I missed you guys and I'm so happy to be back!
Before starting my solo travel journey, I wanted to document my thoughts and how I was feeling so I could look back on the me before. This is going to be the last episode I prerecorded before leaving the US so Life On Audio will be on pause till I'm back, but I'm so excited to share everything I've been up to! (Also, Hi from Australia!)
Feeling defeated about where I am in content creation, I took the mic to talk about what it's really been like being a content creator and sharing my life on the internet. This episode segways into talking about being an overachiever, feeling the need to do it all, and setting boundaries when your life is so public to others. If you've been following me on any of my platforms, thank you for the support!
For the past year I’ve been screaming off the rooftops that I’m going to chase my dreams (aka pursue my passions) after college. Now I’ve graduated and the time has come to start actively pursing my passions! I wanted to do a “before” episode capturing how I’m feeling at the start of this journey, why I decided to do this instead of something more conventional, and what my goals are for this journey! Hoping this inspires those who are questioning whether they should or should not break convention after college!
This episode is about hope, about fighting the battle till the end for better. Today marks a year since my first breakup and the journey (as many of you have followed) was far from easy but the outcome resulted in the happiest ending and I am forever grateful for me a year ago for knowing she deserved better and for me throughout this past year who continued fighting for better until she finally found it! I’ll be celebrating how far I’ve come from Japan and I could not be more excited!
Long before I ever had a podcast I knew that when I would, I would have a very specific person on and today she is dishing the dirt on me while we relive our college experience together. Everyone welcome my freshman year roommate + closest friend at UCLA, Christine, who has gotten me through a large part of my life over the past 3 years! She has all the intel on who I was and who I am.
Potentially closing off this series with an episode on dating in college and my experiences! I share a lot of my unfortunate "dating" stories throughout my college years and the lessons I learned from them.
Confession: I am not the perfect daughter…in fact, I am far from it. In this episode I delve into the journey from striving to be the perfect daughter as a high schooler in hopes that my parents would be proud of me to finally breaking free and choosing what I love while being a very imperfect daughter. This story has a happy ending as my parents have been my biggest supporters as I go on this journey of breaking convention and doing what I love after college (aka talking to my phone). This episode is an appreciation to my parents for loving me for who I am and supporting what I do, even if they may not understand it.
I’m back from small town Germany and I had some life changing epiphanies while I was abroad! Let’s talk about how the switch finally flipped (ignore how I got this wrong in the epi) on being heartbroken over my first relationship and how I came up with a plan B for post grad that I actually love (your girl is looking to move abroad)! This trip is exactly what I needed to start this new chapter of my life and I’m feeling really good for the first time in a really long time!
