(Recorded May 15, 2020) The evolution continues! I decided to rename this podcast as I continue to find a way to offer what I can. I have and continue to have conversations with so many people who are unhappy with their jobs or careers. One of
(Recorded May 20, 2020) Over the May long weekend, I celebrated the launch of allegorychai.com AND my first ecommerce sale. I was vibrating high! Then I crashed into a depressive mindset on Monday and it persisted & was furthered on Wednesday w
(Recorded May 16, 2020) Ok, technically it wasn't quite 1 paycheck - it was actually LESS than 1 paycheck! The paycheck I refer to is the one I made as an engineer. I baffled many people over these 2 years by not working and barely making incom
(Recorded May 15, 2020) I can't stand the way that society has forced us to attach the value that we do to money. People attach their self-worth to what's in their bank account & give that power to others as well. For a while, I resisted the id
(Recorded April 9, 2020) This whole staying at home in quarantine thing really didn't bother me that much at all... You're saying I have to stay home, try to figure out a new way to work, take care of my baby, do chores, and not lose my mind? S

(Recorded Jan 14, 2020) This episode is easily the most vulnerable I've been on social media and outwardly in general. "My Sex Demon" was the biggest contributor to my early days of depression many years ago. I struggled a LOT (& still do in so
(Recorded Jan 10, 2020) In this episode, I'm sharing my thoughts behind the idea that I had for the Instagram account @namethatdishyyc. As of the date I post this episode (May 2020), that page has not gotten much attention at all from me. Quite
In this episode, I get into why I left my job, what I was thinking and the whole world of opportunities that I learned about AFTER I left.
Yes, it is time. I am excited to share more about my journey as a father! As I have done before, I want to do my best to give you some context before I just start saying things or offering my thoughts, advice or otherwise. In this episode, not
I had an interesting conversation with Shaista (my wife) the night before recording this episode. She noted qualities that I displayed when we worked together that I didn't really consider "strengths" of mine. It reminded me that I STILL don't
I spent many years of my life ashamed or embarrassed of who I truly was. It is a totally different world for introverts and extroverts. I'm not gonna pretend I'm going to teach you anything about that, I'm just here to share my experiences in h
