About this listen

 Ocean Notes is a minimalist micro-podcast by Svetlana Kaz. Each 1–3 minute episode is a raw voice note recorded during ocean walks, nature moments, or quiet pauses in daily life. No music, no scripting, no production – just intimate reflections on emotional regulation, identity, healing, relationships, and the messy middle of personal transformation. Perfect for the quiet moments when you want grounding, truth, and calm.Svetlana Kaz Social Sciences

  • When I Stopped Shrinking Myself

    When I Stopped Shrinking Myself
    Jan 6 2026

    I recorded this looking at huge Pacific waves picking up their power and breaking, while thinking about how much of my own power I’ve spent shrinking myself to fit into the wrong rooms.
    This Ocean Note is about what happened when I stopped pouring my energy into fitting in, and started bringing my full self to the right people and places instead.

  • No Longer Outsourcing My Worth

    No Longer Outsourcing My Worth
    Dec 30 2025

    As the year ends, I realized how often I’ve outsourced my worth to investors, programs, mentors and external praise — and how much of myself I’ve lost in that chase. This note is about what I’m leaving behind, what I’m carrying forward, and entering the new year as a more grounded version of myself.

  • Slowing Down Is Not Optional

    Slowing Down Is Not Optional
    Dec 23 2025

    This Ocean Note is about the kind of calm that only arrives when we pause long enough to feel our feet on the ground — and how slowing down isn’t a luxury, but essential if we want our choices to line up with our values and inner voice.
