Many ambitious people can relate to being called delusional at some point in their lives. There's something about being sure about yourself and your dreams that seems unfathomable to most people.

Being multifaceted means that you put your time, energy and resources into multiple different avenues versus just one. This can be really hard to balance. As a 16 year old author who is also a student, podcaster, and overall just a busy person, I find myself dealing with imposter syndrome, as well as anxiety when I put myself out there. In this episode, I discuss how I navigate that. The topic of connections also comes up, and how essential connections are to pivot whatever it is you are starting- whether it be a business, writing career, sports career, acting career, etc.

Forgiving and forgetting can be quite tricky. As humans we respond to hurt and mistreatment by returning the favour to those who hurt us. In this episode, I go over the idea of forgiving and forgetting and how it can be toxic, as well as releasing grudges with your best interest in mind.

Believe it or not, my mind tends to flourish during the late hours of the day. Although I might be tired and physically exhausted, something about the evening/night prompts me to overthink about a multitude of things. In this episode I share a few of them.
From the next steps for my education to realizing I need to socialize more, tune into this episode as I release my thoughts, all while laying in my bed at 11pm on a weekday night.

Working hard doesn't have to mean sacrificing your mental health, peace, and sanity.
In episode 02 of Work & Progress, I take you along the ways in which I actively chose balance between working hard, while also being a regular teenager that enjoys my free time and doesn't overly exhaust myself.
Considering that productivity and self development can often be considered toxic, it is important to look beneath the surface and find the true purpose of it all, without allowing yourself to be consumed by the toxic elements that have developed from it.
It is possible to work towards the success that you want to achieve without succumbing to the toxic rules determined by others on how exactly you should go about "working hard".
Stay tuned.
