From Anna-
"In Australia, I work and live in Garramilla/Darwin, on the unceded and still unrecognised traditional lands of the Larrakia people. In NYC, I acknowledge the Lenape as the traditional owners and acknowledge my privileges as a white person. I continue to do the work to undo both institutionalised and internalised racism. I admit I make mistakes, but am determined to listen, learn and work at being a better ally."
We will see you again soon Anna!
Special Thanks to my Podcast Trainer, Cydne! I mean...

Heidi is a german neuroscientist who is wrapping up her PhD while exploring vegan food spots around NYC, Berlin, or wherever she travels. She is always on the run to live her life to the fullest. Creating memories no matter how big or small they are. For Heidi, life is a journey, where you get to know yourself better and heal with every step. She is currently trying to embody the C.S. Lewis quote:
“There are better things ahead than any we leave behind."

I'm that advertising guy, Viraj. I write long copy on short deadlines and pick sharp words for smart headlines. Doing proactive, interactive and sometimes hyperactive work, I'm just a simple guy who writes complex sentences while giving big ideas small brands. Born with an instinct for technology, a knack for telling a story and a penchant for solving problems, I may be left handed but I'm right up front. All I am is a tall guy with a thick beard, a quick wit, and a soft heart betting on slim chances with fat returns. Just a writer by day and a gamer by night, rhyming all the time and being accidentally creative surprisingly often.
Special Thanks to the Dog Trainer with the great ear!
