How to Stop Taking Everything Personally
Do you spiral over one short reply? Does one comment stay with you for days? What if none of it was ever about you? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi breaks down why we take things personally, what’s actually happening in the body and mind when we do, and how to stop letting other people’s behavior define how we feel about ourselves. From the nervous system’s need to fill in uncertainty to the unhealed past pain that gets triggered by a single comment, this episode gets to the root of why we react the way we do. And more importantly, it gives you real tools to pause, ground yourself, and stop outsourcing your worth to other people’s moods. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why your brain fills silence and short replies with the most painful explanation. How projection works and why other people’s behavior is rarely about you. Why a small comment can trigger a massive reaction and what that’s really pointing to. How to use grounding and the pause to stop reacting from old wounds. Why emotional regulation means letting others inform you, never define you.

Are your biggest dreams buried so deep you’ve forgotten they’re there? Do you keep waiting for the right time, the right mood, the right version of yourself? What if the life you actually want is already on a list somewhere, just waiting for you to begin? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Ben Nemtin, co-founder of The Buried Life, to talk about what it took to crawl out of a debilitating depression and build one of the most inspiring movements in a generation. Ben went from being unable to leave his bedroom to playing basketball with President Obama, all by chasing a handwritten bucket list and helping strangers do the same.

Ben is honest, funny, and deeply human, and this episode will make you want to write your list the moment it’s over. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why fear is actually a signal that something matters, not a reason to stop. The three barriers keeping most people from their dreams. What 76% of people regret most on their deathbeds and how to avoid it. How to create urgency without waiting for a crisis to force your hand.

The Ancient Secret to Increase Vitality & Radiance in the Body
Do you feel depleted no matter how much you sleep or how clean you eat? Are you tired of chasing energy instead of actually having it? What if true radiance has nothing to do with your skincare routine? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi explores the ancient Ayurvedic concept of Ojas, the refined essence of deep nourishment that creates real vitality, glowing skin, and that magnetic, quietly confident energy you can feel in a person the moment they walk in the room. This isn’t about another morning routine or superfood. It’s about understanding why your body is depleted at the root level and how to slowly, consistently rebuild from the inside out. Because radiance isn’t something you apply. It’s something you cultivate. In this episode, you’ll learn: What Ojas is and why it’s the foundation of real beauty and vitality. Why skin and hair are the last to receive nourishment and what that means for how you take care of yourself. The four pillars to build Ojas: nutrition, rest, touch, and emotional nourishment. Why eating warm, grounding foods and slowing down at meals changes everything. How abhyanga and romanticizing your daily life signals safety to your nervous system. Why feminine energy thrives on receiving, not output, and how to start softening into that. You were never meant to run on empty. Ojas is what it feels like to finally be full.

For When You Feel Disconnected From Yourself
Do you feel lost even though life looks fine on the outside? Are you busy, achieving, moving, but somehow completely disconnected? What if the version of you showing up every day isn’t actually you? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi walks you through what it really means to lose touch with yourself and, more importantly, how to find your way back. Inspired by Jay Shetty’s Think Like a Monk, she shares a practical self-audit process that cuts through the noise and gets honest about what’s actually running your life. Because your calendar and your bank statement don’t lie. And sometimes the gap between what you say you value and how you actually spend your time is where all the disconnection lives. In this episode, you’ll learn: How to audit your time and money to reveal what you actually value. Why most of what we call our values are really just survival strategies from the past. How your environment quietly shapes what you normalize, celebrate, and become. Why major life changes shift your values and how to catch it before you drift too far. How to categorize your values into higher and lower using wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita. You don’t find yourself by searching harder. You find yourself by getting honest about where you already are.

Dr. Sasha Hamdani On The Truth About ADHD in Women
What if ADHD is more than just being “distracted”? What if the struggles with focus, emotions, time, motivation, and even relationships are all connected in ways we rarely talk about? And what if understanding how your brain works could help you stop seeing yourself as broken—and start building systems that actually support you? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia sits down with psychiatrist and ADHD specialist Dr. Sasha Hamdani for an honest and eye-opening conversation about what ADHD really looks like beyond the stereotypes. Dr. Sasha breaks down the science of ADHD in a simple and deeply relatable way—explaining why it’s not just an attention issue, but a regulation issue that can affect emotions, sleep, focus, energy, motivation, relationships, and self-worth. Together, they explore the realities of living with ADHD as an adult, the emotional impact of rejection sensitivity, the differences in how ADHD presents in women, and why so many people go undiagnosed for years. Radhi also shares her own experiences with time blindness, hyperfocus, overwhelm, and building systems that help her navigate daily life with more compassion and structure. From dopamine and medication to social overstimulation and emotional regulation, this episode offers both practical tools and validating insights for anyone trying to better understand their mind. In this episode, you’ll learn: What ADHD actually is—and why it’s more than just distractibility The difference between inattentive, hyperactive, and combined ADHD Why ADHD is often missed or misdiagnosed in women How dopamine, motivation, and hyperfocus are connected What “time blindness” is and why ADHD brains struggle with time perception The link between ADHD, emotional regulation, and rejection sensitivity Why movement and fidgeting can improve focus How ADHD affects relationships, communication, and conflict The connection between ADHD and addiction or self-soothing behaviors How sleep, nutrition, exercise, and structure impact symptoms The difference between stimulant and non-stimulant ADHD medications Practical tools for managing focus, overwhelm, and daily routines Why understanding your personal patterns is key to building systems that work This episode is a reminder that ADHD isn’t a personal failure or lack of discipline—it’s a different way of processing the world. And with understanding, support, and the right tools, it’s possible to work with your brain instead of constantly fighting against it.

Who Are You REALLY? And How Do You Figure It Out
What if the version of yourself you’ve been protecting isn’t actually who you are? Why is it so easy to lose ourselves in roles, expectations, and the need to be understood? And when was the last time you sat in complete stillness and truly listened to yourself? In this solo episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi explores what it really means to be your true self—and why so many of us spend our lives identifying with roles, expectations, and versions of ourselves that were never truly ours. Drawing inspiration from Vedic philosophy and the concept of the “atman,” she reflects on the difference between the temporary self and the deeper, unchanging part of us that exists beneath the noise. Through personal reflections and honest moments of questioning, Radhi opens up about the pressure to perform, the fear of uncovering uncomfortable truths about ourselves, and the challenge of sitting in stillness long enough to actually listen inward. She shares how attachment, ego, distraction, and constant stimulation can pull us further away from ourselves—and why reconnecting often requires subtraction rather than adding more. In this episode, you’ll learn: What Vedic philosophy says about the “true self” The difference between your identity and your deeper consciousness How attachment and ego shape the way we move through life Why stillness is essential for self-awareness and clarity The subtle ways we perform in relationships, work, and daily life How to recognize inherited beliefs and conditioned identities Why uncovering yourself is more about remembering than becoming Small practices to help you reconnect with who you really are Whether you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed by expectations, or simply craving a deeper connection with yourself, this episode is a gentle reminder that your true self isn’t something you need to create—it’s something that’s already been there all along.

What if the way you care for yourself has become more complicated than it needs to be?

And what if the answers you’re searching for have been growing in nature all along?

From adaptogens and bitters to nervous system support and sleep rituals, this episode is filled with practical ways to bring more balance into your everyday life. In this episode, you’ll learn: What herbalism actually is—and how to start incorporating it into your life Why modern wellness can sometimes disconnect us from true health How herbs can support anxiety, grief, stress, and emotional healing The difference between adaptogens, nervines, bitters, and sedatives Which herbs support energy, sleep, digestion, and hormone balance Why cravings can reveal deeper emotional needs How presence and discomfort can lead to deeper self-awareness The connection between digestion, skin health, stress, and overall wellbeing Simple ways to reconnect with nature in your daily routine This episode is a reminder that healing doesn’t always have to be extreme or complicated—sometimes it begins with slowing down, listening to your body, and remembering that nature has always been part of the conversation.

How to Get The Best Sleep of Your Life with Dr. Michael Breus 'The Sleep Doctor'
How much of your exhaustion is actually about sleep—and how much of it is everything you’re doing around it? What if the reason you’re not sleeping isn’t because your body is broken, but because your habits are? Are you trying to force rest… instead of creating the conditions for it? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with sleep expert Dr. Michael Breus for a deeply practical and eye-opening conversation on sleep, energy, and what’s actually keeping you up at night. Dr. Breus breaks down sleep in the simplest way—reminding us that it’s a natural biological function, not something we should have to “hack.” From understanding sleep apnea (especially how it shows up differently in women) to why melatonin is often misused, this conversation challenges everything you thought you knew about rest. They explore the role of stress, environment, and daily habits in shaping your sleep—and why it’s not just about how long you sleep, but how you prepare for it. In this episode, you’ll learn: What sleep apnea actually is—and why it’s often missed in women Why melatonin isn’t a sleep solution (and when it actually works) How stress and anxiety silently disrupt your ability to rest The biggest mistakes people make with sleep trackers and supplements How your sleep environment (light, sound, temperature) affects your rest Why your chronotype determines the best time for you to sleep The truth about caffeine, naps, and “catching up” on rest Simple ways to create a nighttime routine that actually works This episode is a reminder that sleep isn’t something you need to chase—it’s something you need to support.

The Wake-Up Call You Need to Prioritize Your Health
Are you treating your health like it only affects you? Do you tell yourself you’ll deal with it later, once things slow down? What if neglecting your well-being is one of the most costly things you can do to the people you love? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi unpacks why taking care of your health isn’t a selfish act, it’s one of the most loving things you can do. From the science of co-regulation to the mind-body connection, this episode reframes self-care as a profound responsibility, not a luxury, and gives you a clear, practical framework to finally start prioritizing yourself without guilt. Rather than overwhelming you with an overhaul, Radhi explores how understanding your body, processing your emotions, and building five simple daily habits can transform not just your own energy, but the environment you create for everyone around you. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why your health choices ripple outward to the people you love. How co-regulation means your nervous system affects everyone around you. The physical root causes behind feeling snappy, low energy, or anxious. How to start understanding your body through checkups and blood tests.

Human Design 101: A Practical Manual for Your Authentic Self | Jenna Zoe
How much of who you are is actually you—and how much is what you’ve been taught to be? What if the reason you feel stuck isn’t because you’re lost, but because you’re out of alignment? Who would you be if you stopped trying to do life the “right” way? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Human Design expert Jenna Zoe for a deeply eye-opening conversation on authenticity, energy, and self-trust. Jenna breaks down Human Design in the simplest terms—describing it as a “manual” for your energy—and explains how each of us is designed to move through the world differently. From understanding your aura and intuition to recognizing how conditioning pulls you away from your natural self, this conversation offers both clarity and permission. They explore the five energy types, how relationships shift when you honor your design, and why so many of us feel disconnected—not because something is wrong with us, but because we’ve been living against our nature. In this episode, you’ll learn: What Human Design actually is and how it acts as a guide to your authentic self The five energy types and how each one is meant to operate in the world Why trusting your intuition (your “authority”) changes everything How conditioning pulls you away from your natural energy Why burnout, frustration, or bitterness may be signs you’re out of alignment How relationships improve when you stop trying to change each other Why being your authentic self makes you more magnetic—not less Simple ways to start reconnecting with your true nature today This episode is a powerful reminder that you’re not here to become someone else—you’re here to return to who you’ve always been.

The Shift From Self Improvement to Self Mastery
Have you done all the work and still feel empty? Are you stuck in endless self-improvement with nothing to show for it? What if you’ve been asking the wrong question all along? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi breaks down the crucial difference between self-development and self-mastery, and why chasing growth without inner depth can leave you feeling perpetually broken. Drawing on ancient wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita, this episode shifts the conversation from “how do I improve myself?” to “who is the self I’m actually trying to improve?” Rather than giving you another checklist, Radhi explores how true fulfillment comes from transforming your relationship with yourself, not just your behavior. From ego awareness to emotional regulation to desire management, this episode gives you the inner framework to stop being controlled by your reactions, impulses, and need for validation. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why self-development alone can trap you in a cycle of feeling perpetually unfulfilled. What self-mastery actually means and how it differs from discipline or willpower. How to observe your emotions without being run by them. Why detachment doesn’t mean not caring, and how to release outcomes without giving up. Four daily practices to start moving from self-development into self-mastery. Growth isn’t just about what you build. It’s about who’s doing the building.

How to Heal, Let Go, and Find Faith | Dr. Thema Bryant
When the world tells you who you should be, how do you come home to your authentic self? Can you be both stressed and blessed at the same time, or must you choose one? How do we find room for joy and celebration while facing collective suffering and oppression? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Dr. Thema Bryant, a trauma recovery expert and 2023 President of the American Psychological Association (APA), for a deeply reflective conversation on identity, faith, and the process of "Homecoming." Dr. Bryant shares her personal journey growing up with ministers who practiced liberation theology, which is about the community and the collective, not just the individual and God. This led her to discover liberation psychology, focusing on context and systems to empower everyone. She also discusses how her childhood home was like her "first time working at like a crisis hotline" and how moving to Liberia, West Africa, gave her confidence from seeing people who looked like her in positions of authority. Together, they explore how stress, trauma, and oppression disconnect us from ourselves, the meaning of her podcast and book Homecoming, and how to cultivate joy while working for justice. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why "Homecoming" is about liberation and coming back to yourself, even for the first time How healthy relationships and spaces are required for you to be able to come back to yourself The difference between coping with trauma and healing from it Why avoidance in therapy prevents healing and the value of trauma-focused and somatic therapy. How liberation psychology recognizes that systems (like media and educational systems) affect us, beyond just personal issues. The connection between the desire for control (or "busy-ness") and past trauma or anxiety. The importance of self-care practices like quiet time to stay grounded and not be easily moved by others' opinions. That true worthiness and sacredness are not tied to performance. The difference between "God-fearing" and believing in a loving God This episode is a powerful reminder that while stress and oppression may disconnect us, liberation is possible. Healing isn't about becoming someone new; it's about remembering, accepting, and appreciating who you were before the world told you who to be. You hold the special sauce within you.

David Ghiyam on Manifestation, Money, and Spiritual Laws
Why do we want what we want? Is desire a sign of lack or alignment? What if the only thing blocking your abundance is your capacity to hold it? Can loss actually prepare you for more? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with entrepreneur and spiritual teacher David Ghiyam to unpack manifestation, wealth, relationships, and the spiritual laws that shape our reality. David shares how taking a vow of poverty at 19 shaped his understanding of money, and how subconscious beliefs kept him financially stuck for 15 years. He explains the concept of expanding your “vessel”: if you try to hold a million-dollar life with limited capacity, it will collapse. The work isn’t about chasing success, it’s about becoming someone who can sustain it. They discuss immigrant scarcity mindset, generational trauma around money, and why enjoying wealth is just as important as earning it. The conversation also dives into magnetic energy in relationships, transforming darkness into certainty, and why true prayer is asking to become the person who can hold them. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why desire signals potential, not lack How limiting beliefs cap your income and relationships What it means to expand your capacity for abundance How to break generational fear around money Why validation repels and wholeness attracts How to turn setbacks into spiritual growth This episode is about doing the inner work so success doesn’t break you, it builds you.

The Pep Talk You Need To Remember You're That B
Do your standards shrink the room? Have you ever been called too much, too intense, too selective, too particular? What if that's not a flaw, but proof of the work you've done on yourself? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi gets real about what it means to hold high standards — in dating, friendship, work, and with yourself. She breaks down the difference between ego-driven expectations and value-driven ones, and why knowing the difference changes everything. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why being "low maintenance" isn't the flex we think it is. - The difference between ego standards and value standards. - Three tests to check if your standards are rooted in values or image. - Why "you're too much" is about their capacity, not your worth. - How Oprah, Serena Williams, and Indra Nooyi refused to shrink and won. Your standards aren't the problem. Compromising them is.

Dr. Lucky Sekhon on What Every Woman Should Know About Fertility in Her 20s and 30s
In a world where we’re told to “wait until you’re ready,” what does that really mean for your body? Are we empowering women with information about fertility — or overwhelming them with fear? And how do you hold hope when the journey to pregnancy feels uncertain, unpredictable, or painfully slow? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with fertility specialist and author of The Lucky Egg, Dr. Lucky Sekhon, for an honest, empowering conversation about modern fertility, egg health, PCOS, endometriosis, IVF, and everything in between. Dr. Sekhon breaks down what’s actually happening in our bodies — from ovulation and insulin resistance to inflammation and the biological clock — in a way that feels informative, not intimidating. She explains why regular periods matter, why lifestyle is important (but not something to weaponize against yourself), and how science has dramatically improved IVF success rates over the years. Together, they explore the emotional toll of trying to conceive, the frustration of conflicting advice, and why fertility isn’t just about statistics — it’s also about resilience, timing, and sometimes, a little bit of luck. In this episode, you’ll learn: When women should realistically start thinking about fertility — and why education shouldn’t start in crisis The real connection between insulin resistance, PCOS, and ovulation Why painful periods should never be normalized and what that could signal How endometriosis affects fertility — and why it often goes undiagnosed The truth about egg freezing and what it can (and can’t) protect you from What lifestyle habits actually move the needle (and which trends are overrated) How GLP-1 medications are unexpectedly changing fertility journeys Why regular movement, strength training, and sleep matter more than perfection The difference between forcing control and staying resilient in uncertainty Why you only need one healthy egg — and why that truth gives so many women hope This episode is a reminder that fertility isn’t a moral measure of your worth. It’s biology, timing, health, and sometimes sheer unpredictability. Whether you’re actively trying, planning for the future, freezing your eggs, or simply wanting to understand your body better — this conversation gives you clarity without panic, and hope without false promises.
