We often look around for footprints that match our own, and when we don’t find them, we assume we’ve taken a wrong turn.

In this episode, I reflect on the "piano girl" identity I’ve carried my whole life and the quiet bravery it takes to walk away from what you’ve always known. If you feel like the odd one out in the flock, this is for you. Just because your path looks different doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

An overview of Dear Nobody, hosted by Sally Yapto— what this podcast is about, why it was created, and what to expect from future episodes. A space for honest reflections, quiet thoughts, and life behind the scenes. A new, exciting chapter is about to be unlocked.

In this episode of Dear Nobody, I’m doing another Monthly Check-In — sharing honestly what life has looked like lately since the last time we talked.

From traveling to Canada, taking a real break from social media, and starting therapy for the first time, to locking in with piano practice, returning to movement, simplifying routines, and finding small moments of confidence and clarity — this episode is just me checking in.

No advice, no pressure, no theme to follow. Just a calm, honest update about where I am right now.

If you’re in a season of resetting, slowing down, or quietly trying to take better care of yourself, this one’s for you.

New episodes every Thursday.

In this episode of Dear Nobody, I talk about the quiet comfort of going back to things we already know — rewatching movies, replaying songs, revisiting stories — and why that doesn’t mean we’ve stopped growing.

After a season of constantly chasing new experiences, I’ve realized that growth doesn’t always have to feel uncomfortable. Sometimes familiarity is how we recharge, reflect, and understand ourselves better. Rewatching something doesn’t mean there’s nothing new left to learn — it often means we’re ready to receive it differently.

This episode is a gentle reminder that comfort and growth can exist at the same time, and that it’s okay to return to what feels safe while continuing to move forward.

Every January, we’re told to become someone new. A new year, a new version, a clean slate. But what if growth doesn’t mean starting over?

In this episode, I reflect on why “New Year, Improved Me” feels more honest than “New Year, New Me.” I talk about discipline, habit-building, and the quiet, unglamorous work that real change actually requires — not overnight transformation, but steady improvement.

Through personal stories and reflections, this episode explores why perfection can sabotage progress, how our minds often limit us more than our bodies, and why keeping goals light and realistic can make growth sustainable.

This isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about becoming a little better — slowly, imperfectly, and honestly.

In this Christmas Day episode, I take a moment to slow down and look back on 2025. From personal growth and solo travels to unexpected wins, creative seasons, and becoming a full-on movie enthusiast, this episode is my own version of a “2025 Wrapped” — but for life.

I reflect on how this year shaped me, the places I went, the things I tried for the first time, and the experiences that helped me grow braver, wiser, and more independent. I also share my favorite entertainment moments of the year, thoughts on creativity, and why making a vision board helped me feel more grounded heading into 2026.

This episode is a quiet Christmas reflection — a pause before the year ends.

In this December monthly check-in episode, I share a quiet season of happiness — the kind that comes from within. I talk about contentment, gratitude, faith, and what it feels like to finally feel at peace with where I am in life.

I reflect on past moments where I searched for happiness outside of myself, how that shifted when I grew closer to God, and how changing my perspective has helped me appreciate life, people, and the city I live in more deeply.

This episode is simply a reflection of where I am right now, shared honestly.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of letting go of control — especially during seasons when life feels overwhelming and unpredictable. As December gets busier with deadlines, finals, and expectations, I reflect on why we try so hard to control outcomes, and how exhausting that can be.

I share personal experiences about surrendering plans, trusting timing, and giving my best while leaving the rest in God’s hands. From school pressures to moments that didn’t go as planned, this episode is a reminder that peace doesn’t come from controlling everything — it comes from learning to let go.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, tired, or anxious about things you can’t control, this episode is for you.
