About [untitled]

What does a 22-year-old college grad do when she starts feeling a little overwhelmed about graduating, starting a career, and, well, adulthood in general? She starts a podcast to get some answers from her peers. This is the podcast in which you can hear other people discuss the journey behind their budding success. They’re not CEOs or Pulitzer Prize winning journalists — at least not yet. They’re young people who are doing cool things and trying to find their places in the world one step at a time.

   How to pursue your dreams in the perfect outfit ✨ ft. Aiyana Ishmael

   Aiyana Ishmael fell in love with magazines at an early age. Now, she's living out her dream as an editorial assistant for Teen Vogue. (She just went to NYFW and absolutely killed it.) This past May, Aiyana graduated from Florida A&M University, where she was the editor-in-chief of FAMU’s student magazine, Journey. She’s also a freelance, culture writer and has published work in Essence, Poynter, Refinery29, The Wall Street Journal, and more. In this episode of Figuring It Out, Ashleigh and Aiyana talk about figuring out this next chapter of their lives, becoming more comfortable in their skin, measuring improvement, and.... creating a good outfit. Follow Aiyana on Instagram @aiyanaish ! P.S. Thank you so so much for listening to FIO! This is the last episode of season 2! We'll be back with season 3 in a few months. Until then, you can keep up with us on Instagram: @thefiguringitoutpod.

   honesty hour 05: getting my sh!t together

   Welcome to Honesty Hour, a new series by Figuring It Out. I'm bringing you along as I talk through various problems including: burnout, self-doubt, adulting, and more. I want to keep myself honest, so I'm enlisting my friends along to help me do it. These episodes are *uncut* i.e. my producer won't be editing them! This episode, like most in our Honesty Hour series, is 20 minutes. Now, here's a bit about today's episode: For me, this summer is the summer of self-improvement, self-compassion, finding hobbies, and Netflix binging. "Getting my sh!t together" felt like the most representative title because, well, that's exactly what I've been trying to do. I recorded this episode with my good friend, Isabella. We talk about how (and why) we are making an effort to find ~hobbies~ AKA things we do just for the hell of it. Post-grad life is kind of weird, but I've found that I feel 10x better now that I'm spending more time on myself. We hope you all are doing the same! And being kind to yourself in the process. As always, feel free to message me @thefiguringitoutpod on IG with any feedback or thoughts.

   honesty hour 04: adulting is hard!

   Welcome to Honesty Hour, a new series by Figuring It Out. I'm bringing you along as I talk through various problems including: burnout, self-doubt, adulting, and more. I want to keep myself honest, so I'm enlisting my friends along to help me do it. These episodes are *uncut* i.e. my producer won't be editing them! Today, I'm talking with my friend and producer, Amy, about a subject/word that scares me: adulting. I have discovered that adulting is...hard. And kind of overwhelming?! I'm not sure why I just realized I'm an adult. Regardless, we're chatting about it. We share: how we're transitioning from college to full-on adulthood, our self-improvement goals, and what we are up to now. We also discuss how we are figuring out body image, personal growth, and more. Listen till the end to get some flirting tips from Amy LOL. Honesty Hour episodes are typically 20 minutes long but this is an ~extended~ version, so you're getting a full HOUR of my clownery. As always, feel free to message me @thefiguringitoutpod on IG with any feedback or thoughts. And special thanks to Amy for coming on the pod (and stabilizing my volume.) -- Created and hosted by Ashleigh Garrison Produced by Amy Nakamura Social Media by Wessam Hazaymeh & Nectaree Thao Production assistance by Noa Yolkut Cover art by Sanchit Kumar - @s4nchit
