RE: Unlearning Performative Love in Your 20s
For years, I used to dread Valentine’s Day. I told myself it was superficial, overhyped, and proof that love shouldn’t be reduced to one day. But looking back, I don’t think I hated the holiday — I think I hated how performative love felt in my early twenties. In this episode, I’m talking about performative romance, social media relationships, and the pressure to express love in ways that look impressive instead of feeling honest. When you’re in your early twenties and still learning how to trust yourself, it’s easy to confuse what love looks lik...

RE: Redefining Success in Your Twenties (And Choosing What Actually Matters)
In this episode of You’ve Got Mail, we’re unpacking the pressure of success in your twenties — from promotions and salary expectations to comparison, productivity guilt, and the fear of falling behind. When we were younger, success felt simple: work hard, get the result. But adulthood doesn’t work like that. And when your self-worth is tied to outcomes you can’t fully control, it’s exhausting. If you’ve been feeling behind, not good enough, or quietly anxious about your career path, this conversation will feel like a de...

What Moving Away in My Early Twenties Taught Me About Myself
Returning to London always makes me think of the 22-year-old version of me who moved there with no real plan, no clear sense of who she was, and no idea how life in her twenties was supposed to look. She built a life for herself from scratch — navigating uncertainty, independence, and self growth all on her own. Every time I revisit, I’m reminded of how brave I was back then. How doing the thing that scares you — even when it costs you comfort, certainty, or familiarity — is often the most important step in growing into who you’re m...

RE: Why Grief and Loss Connect Us All: aka I watched HamnetđŸ« 
After watching Hamnet, I couldn’t stop thinking about grief — not as something isolating, but as one of the most deeply shared human experiences we have. In this episode, I talk about how grief shows up in quiet, unexpected ways, how loss connects us more than it separates us, and why stories like Hamnet can make us feel less alone in our pain. We explore the idea that grief is love with nowhere to go, the strange comfort of knowing others have felt this too, and what it means to sit with sadness rather than rush to heal it...
