24. 10 key lessons learned this summer with Tess
Welcome back to another heart-to-heart between Tess and me where we chat about the biggest lessons we learned this summer (and are still learning to live through 🌷)! We hope our conversation feels like a long hug, a breath of fresh air, and a reminder that you matter!! And that every single thing you do matters🌱
Tune in to hear us talk about how…
You can’t be the same person you were and the same person you’re becoming
We deal with comparison and periods of change, growth, and transition
To cultivate intentional rest and stillness
Effort over outcome is such a powerful mindset shift to adopt
How we live through the saying “If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, who am I?”
Give yourself grace in this new season of your life <3 We’re all humans going through life for the very first time!
Feel free to reach out with any feedback, episode ideas or questions you’d like me to address :) Thank you so much for tuning in, and I’ll see you all next time! I post bi-weekly episodes~!

23. On people, passions, and paratha: Lessons and reflections from a summer in India 🌏
Join my new friends/travel buddies/fellow interns Divya, Eleanor, and Dawson as we all chat about our growth and learnings from our time interning with a rural development NGO in India! 🇮🇳 We also share advice about risk-taking and connection-building we’ve gained through our adventures and experiences here. (Professional growth segment starts at 3:55 and ends at 18:42, and the personal growth segment starts at 18:46).
I’m immensely grateful to have been able to immerse myself in Northern India for two months through my internship with a rural development NGO organized by the World Food Prize! As a Borlaug-Ruan International Intern, I’ve spent the past eight weeks working on a project surveying the state of malnutrition in rural women and children, exploring the agriculture-nutrition linkages in farming households, and developing recommendations for the organization to help strengthen rural nutrition outcomes and livelihoods across India🌾
