Hospital Playlist Season 1 Review

This post contains spoilers. Please do not read any further if you plan to watch the show. I first started watching Hospital Playlist because a stranger recommended the show to me.

What do you mean by “Nice”?

There can be many definitions of a word depending on the context. In one context, a word can be positive and in another, a word can be neutral or negative.

Breaking the Ice with … Yourself – The Art of Showing Up

I started reading a book called The Art of Showing Up and there was an exercise about breaking the ice with yourself where you answer some questions to help get to know yourself better.

Pasta Sauce Innovation or Blasphemy?

I recently met up with some friends that I hadn’t seen for a few months and we started making dumplings and pasta for dinner. We didn’t have enough dumpling wrappers so we cooked some pasta. However, we didn’t have any pasta sauce since we ate the TikTok tomato feta pasta the night before. So, weContinue reading “Pasta Sauce Innovation or Blasphemy?”

Life/Career Coach?

Recently, I’ve been thinking that I may benefit from having a life coach or a career coach.
