what better way is there to end the season than us talking about change!! in this episode, we talk about the feelings we get when we are in a rut and a big change is needed (but we're scared to take it) and how our lives transform when we do take that scary step. we talk about career and college major pivets, moving out, and other big changes we've made and how we did it. this episode is especially for u if you feel like you're to stagnant or you're in a rut. we hope this episode motivates you to take that risk that scares you for the betterment of yourself and we'll see u in the next season :)

how lucky are we to have the funniest engineer in the world on the pod!! shafi hossain (@shafistandsup) is a chemical engineer by day, world-touring bangladeshi comedian by night, and one of the most wise individuals we’ve shared our platform with. born and raised in bangladesh, he fell into comedy while studying internationally and hasn’t looked back since. he’s genuinely one of the kindest, funniest, and most intellectual humans we’ve have the pleasure of speaking with
in this ep, we talk about being an international student from bangladesh and assimilating to american culture, why birds are better than cats, manifesting and silent retreats, defining success, cold plunges, and why you shouldn't eat eggs before an exam, and we can’t wait for u to tune in. i hope u like it.

this one's a solo episode by mashnun on something so many can relate to but more than often goes undiscussed; how bad eating habits and an unhealthy living can manifest in south asians. i recently got on the keto diet and it's been making me think about the relationship i've built with food and eating throughout my life, and it's been relieving finding answers to many of my questions. generational trauma, a scarce upbringing, and the over-examination of self are all contributing factors to the toxic relationship i've had with eating, but at the end of the day, we're always in control of our own habits and i hope you can take something away from this talk :) listen for a blueberry!!!
