282 - Finding Joy in the Chaos with Shika
Sunday, 22 February, 2026
In this episode, I catch up with my homie Shika for a candid conversation full of reflection, laughter, and realness. We talk about protecting your peace, finding joy in chaotic times, and how navigating life lately requires equal parts honesty, rest, and humor. We also discuss: ✨ The importance of self-care, therapy, and emotional healing 🎶 Our appreciation for Jill Scott's artistic evolution and what it means to grow alongside the music 📺 Nostalgic pop culture moments, including America's Next Top Model and reflections on Tyra Banks 💬 Masculinity, emotional labor, and why care and effort shouldn't be gendered in relationships This episode is part vent session, part healing circle, part pop culture recap—and a reminder that joy is still available, even in heavy seasons.
