Desperate for Love

Desperate for Love

This is the story of Sofiya Kalyna, a young woman on a mission to heal the world. One heart at a time. Beginning with hers. #D4L is the first podcast where the host transforms in real time. Not after the glow-up, not once she’s “healed,” but right in the middle of the chaos. Unfiltered. Unafraid. Unapologetic. Sofiya exposes the parts of herself—and all of us—that don’t fit the feed. Each episode rebels against the algorithm and reveals what most people would never admit online. Tune in and remember: the most powerful thing you can be is yourself. Your power starts now.

My dear Desperate Lovers… 🤍

Lately, I’ve been thinking deeply about men, women, and the dynamic between us. Something feels off. We are no longer living in our natural equilibrium, and modern dating has become confusing, exhausting, and disconnected. ⚡

In this episode, we explore why the relationship between men and women feels so fractured, how trauma and modern dating culture keep us stuck in cycles of pain, and why s...

Desperate lovers… 🎧❤️

In this episode of Desperate for Love, I ask one question that might completely change the way you see yourself and the world around you:

Who would you be without the internet? 🌎📱

I discuss the pressure of constantly performing online, the addiction to being perceived, and how social media slowly disconnects us from our authentic selves. From beauty standards, fillers, and comparison culture to validati...

Desperate lovers… welcome to the final chapter of the Before the Storm mini-series. 🌩️✨

In this episode, I open up about my soul. 🕊️
About consciousness. About spirituality, purpose, pain, healing, and the painful realization that no one is coming to save us.

This conversation is about learning to respect yourself, reconnect with your soul, and stop abandoning your own life waiting for someone else to change it for you. �...

OK GUYS. The camera is officially OFF until further notice.

I hit a point where my perfectionism is seriously stopping me from showing up. all i want is to be comfortable, talk about my feelings, no pressure, and just go off and talk sh*t.

In today’s episode, we’re hanging out in my bed. Dress code: sweatpants and hoodies. Hair condition: dirty, oily only. 47th floor overlooking the city and my cat is joining us.

I’m...

OHKAY… so after watching the last episode, you might be completely mistaken about what is ACTUALLY happening in my life. I know I kicked the doors in, screaming, “I HAVE CHANGED AND I’M CHANGING!” But life is a highlight reel. What I left out for you is the DARK side of what I deal with every single day. The truth is: every day can feel like a dread. It’s HARD. IT HURTS. Working out every single day i...

OK. So I've disappeared... It was completely unintentional. I wanted to come back sooner but I was afraid to be imperfect. Not only that, but I came across a rabbit hole that completely knocked me out of my train tracks.. I was in a full crisis mode for weeks.. This podcast was supposed to be about spirituality. I was supposed to transform myself greatly using the wide range of tools available on the spiritual market: crystals, tar...
