ZestPal: Life Skills & Life Lessons
ZestPal (formerly Wellbeing in Focus) is a podcast about life in a broader sense: life skills, life lessons, meaning, regret, joy, elder stories, and of course, zest for life.
I’m Gabriella, and together with my guests we explore the deeper questions in life: what it is that truly matters, what we can learn from those who’ve been there, and how we can live a life that we won’t regret later.
Moving beyond expert advice, ZestPal is a space for real stories and honest conversations about the human experience. It's a place to listen, learn, and take action on what really matters - so we can all build a life that we actually enjoy.
Come and join us!
