the power of routine Nov 03, 2021

Show notes

in my mental health and work journey there's been so much pressure to develop an intense routine. Even when I look on social media for inspiration, I see influencers who have these crazy routines that involve waking up at 4am to make breakfast and meditate. That's not me at all. Releasing that pressure and developing my own routine that works for me and my body has been essential in growing through these crazy times with an unpredictable career path. last week I veered away from my routine and hit a depressive low, and realized just how much my routine means to me today.

finding my family Oct 27, 2021

Show notes

Earlier this month, i reunited with my grandparents for the first time in 13+ years. Seeing them, hearing their stories, and learning about where i come from was healing and filled me with eagerness to keep exploring my lineage. This feels like the beginning of an exciting journey to find other long lost and distant family members i didn’t even know existed...

wtf am i doing Oct 20, 2021

Show notes

What do you want to be when you grow up? What do i want to be when i grow up? I have no idea. But this is a question that I’ve been asked since i was a toddler. I have so much anxiety about whether or not I’m living my purpose, and sometimes get distracted thinking i want to try other things too, and while it’s exciting — it can be stressful. In this episode, i talk more about how I’ve built narratives that have helped me feel good about my path and more present Host: Nadya Okamoto Executive Producers: Nadya Okamoto, Adell Coleman, Jackie Garofano Senior Producer: Quinton Hill Producer: Kelsey Klein, Larry Shapiro, Kacey Lee and Maiqi Qin Distributor: DCP Entertainment Learn more about your ad choices.

not asking for it Oct 13, 2021

Show notes

Yes, I post about period blood and vaginal discharge on tiktok, and yes, I use real visuals of my own. in response, I've received comments that sexualize my body and the inherent idea of our anatomy as uterus owners. Experiencing those reactions has highlighted just how much the sexualization of women perpetuates narratives of victim-blaming.

girlboss'd a bit too close to the sun Oct 06, 2021

Show notes

I stepped into my career at age 16, parallel with the emergence of #girlboss and #hustle culture. In this episode i reflect on how that influenced my own personal and professional development, and what the last year of unlearning and seeking accountability has been like. I am sharing this episode not to make any excuses, but instead to take ownership of mistakes i've made in the past, and open up about my own journey of trying to understand who i am, and why i am the way i am.

For the first time, I feel like i have the vocabulary to talk about growing up in new york city post 9/11. This year we grieved the lives lost 20 years ago on september 11, 2001, and I sat down to watch the hulu series about the deadliest terrorist attack in world history, Entitled "one day in america." it spured a lot of emotions for me, that I reflect on in this episode, including thoughts on how intergenerational trauma might play a role in my mental heath today.

college: to be or not to be, that is the question Sep 22, 2021

Show notes

I did it! I'm done with school! A harvard graduate! Was college everything I thought it would be? Not at all! Truly. Not at all. If I could go back and tell my teen self to chill about college and worrying about college admissions, I absolutely would. tldr: College applications are an absolute crap shoot, there is not 'equation' to perfect in order to get into harvard, and it's up to you on whether or not college is the right choice for you.
