15 Years in LA Pod
15 Years in LA - A storytelling podcast chronicling my journey through 15 unforgettable years in Los Angeles—from my move in August 2010 to today, 2025. I’ll be sitting down with friends, family, colleagues, and fellow dreamers who were there with me through the highs, lows, chaos, and magic of life in LA. Together, we’ll revisit the moments that shaped us, the city that changed us, and the stories that deserve to be told.

In this deep and raw mini episode, I open up about the heavy days—the ones where depression keeps me from showing up, where being absent feels easier than facing the world. I talk about what it’s like to try and pick myself back up when I’m very much down, and the small steps I take to find purpose and self-motivation in uncertain times.
From discovering that tarot is something I’m genuinely good at, to making changes in my diet and lifestyle, this episode is about the ongoing process of caring for my mental health and learning to show up for myself—even when I can’t show up for anyone else.
Because sometimes, just admitting “I’m not okay” is the first step to becoming okay.
