I used to think a “night routine” meant candles, skincare, and journaling under a weighted blanket. But the truth?

Self help gurus always say "don't have regrets" but tbh, I do. If I could go back in time, I would change certain choices I've made. But I also recognize that without making those "regrets", I wouldn't have gotten the valuable lessons I have today :) Nonetheless, I think we're in such an abundant era where it's so easy to get guidance or mentorship, or even just get general life advice/guidance online. Of course, there's alot of noise on the internet and it can be overwhelming, but at least there are resources (back in my early 20s, social media was just starting to become a thing lol)CHAPTERS00:00 Intro00:29 Thing 101:56 Thing 202:38 Thing 304:38 Thing 408:05 Thing 508:57 Thing 610:18 Thing 7

In my late 20s, I realized I wasn’t living MY life — I was living the life my parents and society expected from me. I had everything that was supposed to make me happy: a corporate career, a house, an engagement, and a future that looked great on paper. But inside? I felt empty, disconnected, and completely lost.So, I did the unthinkable: I blew it all up. I ended my engagement, sold my properties, left my career, and started over from scratch — even though it made me the ultimate disappointment to my Asian parents.This video is for any woman — especially Asian women — who feels stuck, lost, or trapped in a life that doesn’t feel like their own. I’m sharing my raw, unfiltered journey of rebuilding my life and career after a massive pivot, along with the 4-part protocol I created to boost self-worth, rediscover myself, and take action — even when I didn’t have it all figured out.

I've struggled with insomnia for decades and finally, I've ripped the band-aid off and got around to addressing the root cause. In this video, I share my personal journey of how I stopped relying on cannabis for sleep, when I realized cannabis was no longer benefitting my sleep, and how I figured out the underlying root cause of my sleep anxiety and insomnia.

Previously known as the Mindful Consumption podcast, although it was a small podcast with 10k streams and 1500 Spotify followers, I wanted to provide an update on why I've renamed the podcast to Inner Code, and give some context as to what's been happening with my personal brand and content.Thank you to all who have followed along for the cannabis educational content!

It's been a while since I posted a video. I took some time off social media and content creation to focus on slowing down and healing my health. This video was filmed in November 2024 in Ko Samui, Thailand. In the summer of 2024, I started getting painful cystic acne, dermatitis, and digestive issues, and my anxiety/depression started to become unmanageable. I spent thousands of dollars working with health specialists to figure out what was wrong. After months of tests, consulting with various professionals, and many hours of research, I've found multiple root causes. Sometimes we overlook subconscious behaviours and habits that don't seem like a big deal in the moment. Overtime, things we do in our daily life or the way we go about our days, can stack and spiral into a larger issue. This video is for anyone who may be going through similar issues, but even more so for those who tend to be more type A personality or grew up placing heavy pressure on themselves to do well in life (ie. career, fitness, etc).

I was a binge drinker for almost 10 years. I didn’t know how to just have one drink. It started in my high school days, and got worse once I went to a party school for my university years. I gained so much weight and was stuck in a toxic cycle of drinking, hangovers, and making poor life choices. 4 years ago, I decided to quit alcohol in order to create the actual life that I wanted for myself. I hope this episode can help you or someone who also needs to make a change in their relationship with alcohol – it’s not an easy journey, but it’s the single best decision I ever made for myself.

Cannabis, specifically the compound THC, is on the World Anti Doping Agency’s Prohibited List. Some believe that this compound is performance-enhancing, while others believe it’s simply a tool that can be used for performance recovery. Where is this fine line drawn? And are there other substances that are also performance-enhancing, but not on the prohibited list? This episode dives into why athletes use cannabis, my personal experience with using the plant for pre and post-workout, what official sports organizations think about the plant, double standards with the prohibited list, and where the future of cannabis lies for the sport and athletics community.

Are you someone that smokes cannabis joints and you wonder what impact it has on your health? It's a question that I've been trying to answer for myself for the past few years as I also occasionally like to partake in joints every once in a while. It's a communal experience, kind of like a social activity, and has been used as a way to help me break the ice with new people or as a way to conduct a business meeting, or simply just a method of utilizing the ancient plant for my own medical needs. In this week's episode, I explore the question of whether dried herb vaporizing is a healthier alternative than smoking joints. We'll dive into the history of smoking joints, looking at the potential risks of smoke inhalation, and explore the new technology of dried herb vaporizing and see what research has been done on this potential healthier method of consumption. 00:00 Disclaimer 00:12 What will be covered in this video 00:55 Definition of smoking joints 01:20 History of smoking joints 02:19 What is dried herb vaporizing 02:40 The difference between vaping vs. vaporizing 03:31 Why I don't vape 04:47 History of dried herb vaporizing 05:53 Health implications of smoking joints 06:41 Physical health risks 07:17 Mental health risks 07:52 My thoughts on Andrew Huberman 08:23 Why cannabis withdrawals are real 09:58 Double edged sword 10:40 My issue with current research 11:14 What research says about smoking 13:34 What research has been done on dried herb vaporizing 15:14 Red flags I noticed for myself 15:48 Visual comparison experiment 16:11 Risk-reduced methods and tools 16:44 Why I use the PAX 17:21 PAX Plus features 19:40 smoking joints vs. vaporizing 20:14 Flavour and terpene availability 21:15 Which has a better user experience 21:41 Do vaporizers have odour 22:11 So which one is better Join my free weekly newsletter where I share cannabis education, recipes, and the latest in cannabis news @ ⁠https://www.thecannabinista.com/newsletter⁠.
