Music is the low hanging fruit of the therapy tree. It is the most accessible and personal confidant and therapist available to you on-demand.

Surfaced conversations are devil's pleasantries.

We measure looks, we measure wealth, we measure height, we measure weight, and we measure experiences. We don't measure happiness. Instead of asking how hot someone is, ask how happy, cheerful or at peace they are.

Why don't we measure emotional state?
I intend to change that.

Investors need you as much as you need them, if not more. They ain’t your masters, learn to say no to those who don’t vibe.

I’ve been working on something amazing! To this date my fav project. We are going to re-imagine our relationship with emotions. How we share them and feel them. Inspired my personal experiences as well as music such as Mac Miller. We are quantifying happiness.

I want to know your relationship with entrepreneurship as I vulnerably share my journey and relationship with it.
The Entrepreneurship Sacrifice
Ultimately, it demands everything you currently are in exchange for the potential of becoming what you aspire to be.

Healthy relationships are designed,
not found.

Just like a beautifully designed product or experience it takes research, testing, constant improvements and feedback collection to curate a healthy, beautiful relationship. With anyone. Be it romantic, professional, or friendly.

No new technological frontier will magically solve our problems. No AI, AR/VR, Metaverse, or Web3 will make things better until, we humans, fix our bullshit. Behind all tech advances, there are still people with prejudices and biases.

Someone should make a #Tiktok filter where it scans your face and shows which celebrity can play you in your version of the show and auto add your name to the title in the style of the show. Raising awareness so people read terms and conditions #netflix #BlackMirror6 #joanisawful

As someone who travels a lot and has massive OCD, these apps help me stay sane and make traveling easy:

- Google Maps
- TranslateNow
- Airalo (virtual sim cards )
- Omio ( ticket booking in EU )
- Uber
- CityMapper

What is your favorite travel app companion?

I came to conclusion that as human beings, we are constantly caught between the mistakes and regrets of the past and the perpetual hope and envisioning of a perfect tomorrow.

Don't schedule your happiness for a later date. Very often we do things in the context of: I will take on what I can get for now so later on I can get what I deserve and makes me happy. Like happiness is some sort of privilege you have to grow into or be worthy of?
