Conversations With You: Recent Episodes

Amanda George

Conversations With You was created to be a platform for any and everyone to use to discuss the things they care about the most. An episode will be posted once a month. Each episode will feature a different guest who will be in charge of picking 3-5 topics they want to talk about (you do not have to be an expert on any of these topics! This is just for people to express themselves and their views or passions). Since there is no specific genre for this podcast due to its nature, the conversations will be quite diverse from episode to episode. As your host, I hope to make you feel interesting as I take a step into your world. I also hope that this encourages everyone listening and speaking to use their voice regardless of the fear of not being interesting or cool enough. If you are interested in being a guest, please send an email to amandasharbel@gmail.com. Though I know it can be intimidating to speak into a mic without knowing who is listening or what their reaction is, if you can do this then I think you can do so much more.

If you don’t like my laugh, this is not the episode for you lol. The topic of this podcast is friendship which is very fitting since the guests are my two oldest friends. Josimar and Kaitlyn share some of the difficulties with establishing friendships and relationships during early adulthood. They talk about insecurities, how they manifest themselves, and ways to overcome intrusive thoughts. To me, this podcast is a great example of the vulnerability and acceptance that should flood every true friendship. I hope you find encouragement in the fact that good friends are hard to find but they are always worth pursuing. If you’re tired of putting yourself out there, I plea with you to keep trying.

As per usual, please email me at amandasharbel@gmail.com if you’re interested in being a guest! Have a wonderful day:)

This episode features one of my best friends and sister in Christ Mim Knoble. We met while at Capernwray Bible School in England and she very easily became someone close to my heart. She discusses what it meant for her to grow up in Nepal and how her background shaped her into the woman she is today. We reflect on the difficulties as well as the blessings of moving to the United States. You will admire her honesty, wisdom, and humor as she shares her experience with the occasional STEM major rant. Hopefully, you learn a thing or two, or perhaps you share many same experiences and this will serve as a comfort that you're not alone.

In this episode, Oye, Chioma, and MJ talk about nearing the end of their undergraduate experience. We discuss struggles navigating the American education system as immigrants and international students, the anxieties associated with graduation, and lessons they learned these past four years. They offer wisdom in the form of encouraging students to slow down and enjoy the process of learning and getting to know themselves along the way. I hope you learn as much from them as I did.
