Episode 4: How to ACTUALLY glow up in 2026 (without burning out)
Real life glow up advice, from your internet bestie who has been there and done that. I'm no glow up guru, and I certainly don't have a degree in astrophysics or whatever, but I have experienced a lot of change throughout my life, so this is the recipe I've crafted for myself after countless therapy sessions and many challenges faced. One of my fav quotes is Per aspera ad astra, which means through hardships to the stars, and I think this episode can potentially help you do that my aliens...
In a world filled with noise, be it good or bad, let this episode be your anchor for how to sustainably plan, set, and achieve your new years goals. It's a bit all over the place, (but so am I so I hope you'll forgive me hehe), but this episode is your anti-burnout, 2026 WILL BE your year, ultimate glow up manual. Remember there is no "perfect time" to start; as the dead poets society says, carpe diem!! Seize the day!!
What is it with me and Latin in this caption?

Episode 2: My Mental Health Journey 💌
To the people who told me I would never recover, this is me proving you wrong.In this episode, I open up about my own mental health journey — from school trauma and eating disorder recovery, to inpatient stays, acting/performing as a lifeline, and learning to live out loud as an autistic alien... this is the story behind your Alien Gang leader (Guys, its a cosmic cult), and why I find it so important to advocate for mental health, especially in young people. 💌🛸Trigger Warnings: Discussions of mental health struggles, eating disorders, trauma, and self harm. No graphic descriptions or details, just open conversations; if you're currently in a vulnerable position and don't think this episode is for you, THAT IS OKAY!! I'm certain I will see you soon.
