Walled Off is a podcast for people learning how to live, create, and build in alignment with themselves.
Hosted by best friends Nina and Caroline, founders of Nova Linda and Louee Vega, the show is an honest, evolving conversation about what happens when you stop forcing life to move faster—and start listening inward.
What began as a dialogue on entrepreneurship and creative risk has grown into a deeper exploration of creativity, feminine energy, healing, emotional intelligence, and the inner rhythms that shape meaningful work and life.
Each episode blends personal stories and reflections on intuition, nervous system regulation, grief, identity shifts, rest, community, embodiment, and building work that feels true.
This isn’t a how-to or hustle podcast—it’s a space to slow down, trust yourself, and fall in love with the process.
Come as you are. Move at your own pace. Let’s create a life that actually matters.
SS2 | EP17 | Art, Business and Trusting Your Gut with DelBello Studio
We have a guest and she is the real deal. This week we sat down with Alex DelBello of DelBello Studio — a lifelong artist who was fully on track to become an engineer, took one hard look at her life, and chose Parsons in New York instead. No notes.
Alex creates rugs from her original paintings and honestly her work has to be seen to be believed. But beyond the art, this conversation is really about what it takes to bet on yourself when the safer path is sitting right there. We get into how her style evolved through experimentation, what it actually looks like to build a creative business without losing your artistic soul, and how she navigates self-doubt when it shows up (because it always does).
There's something really special about this one, three women in the same creative industry, carving out their own paths and cheering each other on while they do it. Alex reminded us that leaning all the way in is always the move, that community over competition is not just a cute phrase, and that the best thing you can do for your work is trust your own vision and drown out everyone else's noise.
If you've ever thought about ditching the "sensible" path for the one that actually lights you up, this episode is your sign. 🙏

SS2 | EP16 | Over explaining, Over apologizing and OVER IT
If you've been feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or like you've been saying yes to everything except yourself — this episode is for you.
This week we're diving deep into the book "Pussy: A Reclamation" and unpacking why so many women in their 20s and 30s are still overexplaining, over-apologizing, and abandoning their own needs to manage everyone else's feelings. Sound familiar? Same.
We get into how to actually set boundaries without the guilt spiral that follows, why learning to say no is one of the most powerful things you can do for your career and your relationships, and how tuning into your body and feminine energy can completely shift the way you move through the world. We also talk about FOMO, obligation, and how both are quietly wrecking our mental health — plus why fun and play are not a luxury, they're a necessity.
There's some real talk about past trauma showing up in current relationships, the importance of self-awareness when you're building a life you actually love, and why sometimes a solo retreat or a moment of solitude is the most productive thing you can do. Basically, if you're a woman trying to build something meaningful — personally and professionally — and you're tired of doing it at the expense of yourself, this one's going to hit.
Grab a coffee. We needed this conversation and honestly? So did you. 🙏

SS2 | EP15 | Fake It Till YOU Make It
We are SO BACK and honestly? We found our sauce again. C finally spills everything about her Hawaii trip and let's just say it did not disappoint.
This one is a good one if you're into manifestation, identity work, and all the little details that actually go into building a life you're obsessed with. We talk a lot about romanticizing your life, what it really looks like when your dreams start coming true, and how to fall genuinely in love with who you are as a person. Like actually, not just vision board deep.
It's been a rough few months over here if we're being honest, but this episode felt like us again. A little preachy, a little delish, and a lot of goodness. Grab a coffee, you're going to enjoy this one. 🙏
