a few months ago i found a lump in my left breast. it's been a frustrating process, to say the least. i'm sure it's fine, but docs haven't been able to give me an answer with 100% cerntainty, and i'm not sure how to resolve that! nobody likes uncertainty, so why is it so hard to figure this out?! in this episode i talk about what the journey of ultrasounds and second and even third opinions has been like. i'm definitely not a doctor, nor am i very knowledgable about breast cancer and breast lumps -- this is just my personal experience. this is also your reminder to give yourself a self-examination every now and then if it pertains to you!

"barbie" movie spoliers ahead!!

i recently witnessed ocean vuong, the iconic poet, accept an award at a gala i recently attended, in which he completely upended the way i have understood this phenomenon of "imposter syndrome." his words have been at the forefront of my mind the last week, and have felt like a catalyst to a major breakthrough i'm facing about how i understand self-worth and practice self-affection.

i recently sat on a panel with ashton applewhite, the first "ageism activist" i've ever met. hearing her talk about how we're all conditioned to be ageist, and how ageism and ableism go hand in hand, was super eye-opening and thought provoking -- and i'm just going to be blunt about *all* the reflections i've been having about aging, age, and ageism. would love to know what you think!!

i had a big self-care day of therapy and catching up with my psychiatrist. tldr i am, of course, still experiencing anxiety and depression symptoms, but frustrated by how i keep just getting pushed to increase my meds dosage. i want to work on the root of these symptoms and not just tack on band-aid solutions. my therapist also suggested ketamine infusion to work on some ptsd symptoms and i'm curious if anyone here has tried that before or know people who have?

something you might not know about me is that i played on the boys' varsity baseball team in high school. what!? yeah, honestly it still surprises me and I still don't really understand why I decided to make such a big time commitment to something that i didn't have any prior interest in. in this episode, i reflect on past impulsive experiences that led me on unexpected journeys -- playing baseball being one of them.

For the last week, I’ve been feeling pretty overwhelmed, and had more than a few panic attacks. Between lunar new year, work stress, and personal things I’m facing, it’s just feeling like…a lot. And the news about gun violence in this country does not help. In this episode, we face these thoughts, instead of trying to avoid them, and I share some things I’ve been experimenting with for coping.

I'm a few weeks away from turning 25-years-old, and in this episode I sit down to reflect on my irrational fear of aging and dying. This is something that I've struggled with for as long as I can remember, and it feels like ABOUT TIME that I move on from it. Nervous to share this, but eager to hear if some of y'all may relate.

As a result of my recent depressive episode, I made the decision with my new psychiatrist to adjust my anti-depressant dosage. It's hard not to feel like this is taking some baby steps back, but I know that this is the right thing for me and my mental health right now. And in just a few weeks, it definitely has made a difference. In this episode I talk about some of the side effects and how they have been impacting other parts of my life like my sleep and relationship.

I've decided to take it back to the beginning and reflect on 12 years of my period anniversary! I remember getting my first period thankfully at home with my mom there. I go down a bit through memory lane and remember period moments in school and how I came to really embrace this change. Gonna be honest I never expected periods to be my career but life is funny like that. So let's sit down and talk about it.
