Aashiyan just radiates good energy. She’s originally from India and now living in Canada, with a background in biotechnology, so she totally gets how important biology and science are. But what makes her special is how she blends that scientific mindset with a deep sense of spirituality, gratitude, and energy healing.

Aashiyan shares how she learned to find peace by changing her perspective, like when she was younger and really didn’t like one of her teachers. Instead of holding onto that negative feeling, she started wishing him well… and something shifted. Her anxiety eased, and she started growing into a calmer, wiser version of herself.

Our conversation is full of warmth, reflection, and positivity. Aashiyan talks about life, energy, and how a little gratitude can honestly change everything. She’s inspiring not just as a co-worker and a friend, but as someone who truly practices what she believes.

Are video games just distractions, or can they be powerful learning tools? In this episode of Education Monsters, we sit down with Robby, a gameplay programmer and teacher from Québec, to challenge the stigma around gaming.

Robby shares his journey from growing up as a gamer to making it his career, and how he reassures parents that video games can foster creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork—when used mindfully. He also discusses how he’d approach gaming as a parent and what it takes to break into the gaming industry.
