Two Halves with Parinitha MN

Two Halves with Parinitha MN

Aren’t we all just a bunch of kids who grew up too quickly? We just picked ourselves up and ran with the world, as fast as we could, but this voice inside us never left. We silenced the frenzy and listened to it for a change and we discovered that we were running from ourselves all along. Two Halves is a celebration of this banter between our head and heart. It’s an ode to the undiscovered artist that’s hiding in each one of us. Creative people don’t mind being called names. Crazy. Weird. Rebel. Misfit. Parinitha MN, an avid dreamer and Fashion Designer, takes us on a treasure quest into our soul and speaks to the quirky side of us! Instagram: @pariha.designstudio

In this episode called Restless Dreamer! I dive into creativity and the soul. Where do creative ideas come from? What is it that doesn’t let us sleep at night? Why does the universe try so tirelessly to get your attention? And with great power comes even greater fear. Fear of being seen. Fear of failure. Fear of success. Fear of change. Fear of the unknown. The soul waits patiently till we listen to it all while continuously puttin...

In this episode called I see YOU! I dive into Empathy. Is it a trait or a skill? Can it be learned? Or is it something that some of us are just born with? How each one of us can we view our life with a holistic lens and how we are made of star-stuff. The impact each one of us can create is colossal.

In this episode called Metamorphosis! I dive into Imposter Syndrome and how it is more common than we can imagine, how it creeps up every time we think we have left it behind, and if there is really a way to get over this feeling of being called out as a fraud.
