Hi there, and thank you for joining this space with me. Welcome to Wish You Were Here, the podcast where we open up to each other and cherish human connection. Guests that come on are people in my life (and yours) that I absolutely love and adore -- now it's time to dig a little deeper.
Hey there! Today we’re hosting my very good friend Tajahn Wilson. Tajahn and I discuss why we wish people would ask how we feel more, our preference for deep & emotional conversations, and how we’ve been flourishing since nurturing our sensitive side. We relate over the hypercriticism we dealt with in childhood, being in competition with siblings for resources & attention, and reckoning our parent’s expectations of us with our personal desires. We get to the bottom of why Tajahn is actually in college, and he opens up about his recovery since being hit by a car in 2020.
This episode felt like drinking from cold water on a hot summer day: wayyy more refreshing than I expected it to be. I love Tajahn so much and I know you will too! Until next time, bye for now.

No. 53 | Dorothy Colon
Hey there! Today I’m talking with my friend and mentor, Dorothy Colon. We talk about why we like flexing our personal authenticity, why we don’t like being perceived, anxiety disorders, and why Dorothy’s trying to stop being an overthinker. We also get into Dorothy’s experience with pole dancing, how she’s embraced the art form, and how we’re finding safety & comfort in sexuality. This conversation is full of serendipity, and I’m thankful to have found someone I relate to so deeply. I know you’ll enjoy! Until next time, bye for now.

No. 52 | Te'Aja McCoy
I am delighted and so thrilled to share this next guest with you. Today I’m hosting my dear friend and SPARK baby, Te’Aja McCoy! We discuss the SPARK retreat & the benefits of deep emotional connection, the loneliness we experience in college (and relying on connection for our survival), the hoops she had to jump through to make college a reality for herself, and how Te’Aja got a full ride to 22 colleges and universities!
Te’Aja talks about the inseparable bond she shares with her grandfather, what it’s been like to be away from him since being in school, and the difficult reckoning that comes with losing loved ones. This episode stands out as a favorite for me because of Te’Aja’s incredible storytelling, and it’s definitely one you don’t want to miss. I love y’all! And I’ll be talking to you soon, bye for now.
