In good times and bad times, sickness or health, an episode must be released. And our host Janessa Alexis is willing to risk it all (mostly her sleep schedule) for her friend Anna.

One chance meeting in Portugal has sparked a friendship that’s now spanned continents. But between the sparse texts and quick check-ins, Anna has been reminiscing on warmer weather, better food, and more direct bus routes.

Settle in for a soothing session that reflects on the joys of solo travel — and the quiet loneliness that sometimes comes with it.

It’s 2026: new year, new guests, same season. And to kick things off, our host Janessa Alexis connects with fellow Canadian Natasha!

Based in the GTA, Natasha is a one-woman show: she’s completing her degree in genetics, working as a social media manager, running a whimsical Bookstagram - and also traveling on the side?

Settle in to listen as Natasha shares her love of fashion, science, and snow! She demonstrates that if you lead your life with passion, there will always be room for serendipity.
