   S1 E10 - Alessia & Annalisa

   This episode started in the most unexpected way. A dinner coupled with a creative night turning one conversation into a podcast episode (with full approval, of course). Somewhere between the food and the clay, we ended up talking about dating, situationships, marriage, divorce, family dynamics, cultural expectations, and the emotional rollercoasters that come with love in all its forms. If you want an episode that feels intimate and spontaneous, like sitting at the table with us during that creative night - this one is for you. Language: Italian Keywords: dating, relationships, communication, marriage, family, emotional connection, commitment, love, relationships, situationship, spontaneity, friendship

   S1 E9 - Hannah

   Episode 9 is here ✨ It feels like I spent the entire episode trying to convince Hannah to sing something for us - and (third time’s a charm) she finally did. And honestly… the song she chose opened a whole new door of questions I didn’t even know I had. In just over an hour and a half, I learned so many things about her that I had simply assumed all this time: that she’d been writing songs since she was little, that she’d been playing piano her whole life… absolutely not. Instead, we talked about the unexpected beginnings, the detours, and the weird little influences that shape an artist - including her relationship with IKEA meatballs. Yes, really. This conversation feels like the perfect autumn episode. We talk about music, love, friendship, moving to new cities, making impulsive choices in your apartment, health (one of us had never done a blood test before turning 30 - you’ll need to tune in to know who), creative growth, the role of community and family, and what it means to reinvent yourself at any age. There’s a lot happening for Hannah at the end of this year and in 2026, and I cannot wait for you to discover more of her music and her world. If you want a conversation that feels warm, curious, and a bit nostalgic - this one’s for you. Language: English Keywords: Music, creativity, personal growth, relationships, health, Berlin, food, relocation, community, empowerment, family

   S1 E7 - Angela

   Episode 7 is here ✨ Angela and I sat down a month ago for a long, honest conversation about growth, love, work, and all the unexpected lessons that come with getting older. We talked about birthdays as checkpoints - those quiet moments when you pause, look back, and ask “am I still in flow?” From career shifts and dating dynamics to communication, boundaries, and financial compatibility, we touched on it all. It’s a conversation about self-reflection, taking charge of your own path, and having the audacity to ask for what you want - in love, work, and life. Sometimes growth looks like change, sometimes it looks like clarity - but it always starts with honesty. 💛 Language: English Keywords: personal growth, birthdays, life changes, dating, love, self-discovery, career shifts, communication, boundaries, transparency, relationships, self-reflection, advocating for yourself, audacity, life lessons

   S1 E2 - Amélie

   Episode 2 is here ✨ This was the first time in years that Amélie and I finally caught up in person (well, almost live) - and we didn’t hold back. More than four hours of stories, reflections, and laughter (yes, editing it down was a journey). From friendship and shared memories to growth, career choices, toxic work environments, and chasing passions - we went everywhere. Nothing was off the table. This conversation is a reminder that reconnecting with old friends can open space for honesty, lessons learned, and dreams for the future. 💛 Language: French Keywords: friendship, personal growth, career choices, emotional awareness, life lessons, cooking, aspirations, life changes, work meaning, toxic environments, communication, emotional challenges, restaurant industry, career transitions
