The Shispot

The Shispot

A personal, honest, authentic and oftentimes funny account of my life, as an Indian American girl who grew up in a small blue-collar town in PA. I share my struggles growing up in a traditional but dysfunctional family that continues to plague me as an adult, but has also positively shaped my perspective on how I live presently. I’m a former radio personality of 15 years turned mental health counselor, who just really misses radio, especially what radio used to be, and that was great conversations and great personalities. At the height of my career in radio, I had an existential moment, a realization that there has to be a better way to think and live that society doesn’t teach us. Hence the ShiSpot was born. It’s still a work in progress, like my screwy life. I hope my takes on different topics, with the help of some very smart people, can be enlightening and refreshing in some way, different from the norm, and useful/helpful in your own life.

In this episode of the ShiSpot my friend and mentor Glen Callahan joins me to talk about meditation, transcendental meditation, why it doesn't work for many, what most people get wrong about it, and finally how we can incorporate it.  We also talk about using psychedelics to reach final liberation, and its role in reaching the ultimate state of consciousness...is it cheating?

Welcome to episode 1of The Shispot!

I always wanted to be a mom, but it didn't happen. When I was younger, I just assumed it would, but as in most cases, life got in the way. I will admittedly look around sometimes and think, "wait, they have kids, and I don't?!"

Consider this my honest reaction to never having kids...no pun intended but, am I alone?

That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
