After being judged for dining alone during my trip to Italy, I felt inspired to record this episode while drinking some prosecco.

We'll be reflecting on:

• why this situation bothered me;
• why people rush to judge others;
• how we should create a life based on our own desires instead of trying to meet other people's expectations.

This was recorded very spontaneously, and was completely unscripted. I hope you enjoy the conversation and to see you in the comments! Go to Youtube for a full video experience.

In a society where people constantly value being in a relationship, it's time for us to talk about why you shouldn't be in one, while discussing the benefits of spending time alone.

Having not been in a serious relationship since 2019, I've spent a massive amount of time alone and discovering who I am. This experience has allowed me to:

• Become incredibly independent
• Learn how to read my intuition
• Understand who I am and what I want
• Identify and work on my flaws
• Detect toxic relationships around me
• Love myself truly (a daily practice)

I hope this is an empowering episode which gives you the courage to choose what's best for you, even if it feels scary right now.

Self-discovery takes different proportions once we start exploring different cultures. That's because traveling, living abroad, and meeting immigrants allows you to experience a different perspective on how the world works. And that perspective can challenge your own beliefs, and your own reality, in ways you could've never imagined before.

In today's episode, we'll explore how cultural differences can impact our self-discovery process with the Germany based Brazilian dancer, Lívia Gil. Even though she was born and raised in Brazil, she has spent the past 10+ years living in Europe, having lived in London, UK, and in several cities in Germany. Currently based in the city of Cologne, this experience has completely reshaped Lívia's way of thinking about how a society should function, and has brought her more opportunity to learn about herself and her vision of right and wrong.

Together with our Brazilian host Carolina Rizzotto's experience living and working in the USA for the past 9 years, this episode comes together into an interesting conversation about cultures, and our places within them.
