In this podcast, I’ll be interviewing a variety of guests, involved in diverse fields ranging from bioengineering to journalism. I aim to get their perspective on numerous areas like school, research… and life in general. In each informal Q/A episode I hope to work towards answering the question: What does it mean to be successful? This will be a question that gets asked to each guest. Overall, I’m looking forward to having insightful conversations and learning new things along the way!

Way back in middle school, my school librarian/media tech specialist (who really helped me grow my passion for reading & learning) gave us students the opportunity to record & podcasts with the school community! From there, “Give Stress a Rest” was born — where I worked during lunch periods to record episodes with friends on managing the stress that comes from middle-school-adolescent life. Then, during the early months of COVID-19 pandemic, I had put together “The Artsy Stay at Home Podcast” — a combination of my digital art and disorganized ramblings. Again, I just shared this with the (online) school community — and no where else.

I could have (and probably should have) shared this work with others. Yet, something held me back (I’ll go into this “something” in a later blog post, but for now, we’ll just leave it at that)!

Nonetheless, I’m realizing how important these experiences were, as they gave me the confidence to do what I’m doing now.

My podcast is currently available on Spotify, and will soon be available on other platforms! Embedded is my most recent episode.

Here, I’ll be sharing blog posts on some key takeaways from the podcast! This will give me a space to reflect on what I’ve learned. Thanks for joining me on this journey, and enjoy the show 🙂
