Missed us?! After a month-long break, Cristina and I are back with a wide-ranging conversation that gets straight to the heart of what's on our minds. We dive into personal growth, social dynamics, and even some controversial topics. Join us as we explore Cristina's recent journey into Buddhism and its impact on her worldview, unpack the complexities of being a Trump supporter, and share personal stories about family, careers, and the pursuit of an authentic life. It's a candid chat about transformation, privilege, and the ongoing quest for inner peace.
