  • Where the Currents Meet (Season One Finale) - Episode 6
    Dec 23 2025

    Season One closes here.

    This episode isn’t a summary, it’s a pause.
    A reflection on the places, roles, and versions that shaped my voice:
    Cyprus, Barcelona, activism, work, friendships… and the quiet realization that none of them alone were the whole ocean.

    I’m taking a short break to rebuild this project with more structure and intention.
    Season Two will explore integration, where the currents meet instead of competing.

    If you’ve listened this season, I’d genuinely love to hear from you.
    Not polite feedback, but what stayed with you.

    I’ll see you soon.
    Same voice. Just more deliberate.


    If you listened and want to share a longer reflection, there’s a short, open-ended form here:

  • Intellect vs Vanity - Episode 5
    Nov 25 2025

    There are parts of us we learn to love loudly and parts we punish quietly.


    This episode explores the quiet war between two internal drives, the part of us that wants to be seen and the part that wants to stay safe.

    Through stories of visibility, protection, longing, and self-correction, we dive into the tension between expression and control, beauty and meaning, mind and mirror.


    Not vanity vs intellect.

    But longing vs protection.


    This is a slower, more introspective episode, a brief moment before integration.

    If you’ve ever felt two sides of you pulling in different directions, this one is for you.

  • Letter from Here & There - Interlude
    Oct 8 2025

    Before heading back home, I wanted to pause.

    There’s a kind of silence that appears before every departure not peaceful, but questioning.

    In this short interlude, I reflect on what it means to return, to change, and to listen more deeply to the parts of ourselves we’ve left behind.


    🎧 A moment between currents, between who we were and who we’re still becoming.


    A Different Current is a podcast about identity, intimacy, and the quiet places where emotion lives.
