Welcome to another exciting episode of the Mood Unpacked Podcast! I sit down Elora Scamardo, Esquire, an Applicant Workers' Compensation Attorney with a Juris Doctor Degree from the University of Toledo College of Law on a full-ride merit scholarship. This was a refreshing reunion between two old friends, and we delved into topics such as networking, the power of people in your circle, mentorship, and being a woman in a high-powered career.

Spoiler alert! Today’s solo episode is me reacting to some “Icks” from the internet, and I give my very lengthy opinion about Love is Blind Season 6 episodes 1-9. There’s a lot to unpack here, and it’s such a mood. Links: Leave a voice memo! https://fanlist.com/moodunpacked Song credit: Music by raspberrymusic from Pixabay

Look at how far you've come! In this solo episode, I reflect on the lessons of 2023, finishing my first year of med school, and unpack feelings around imposter syndrome, building a village, and redefining self-worth.

Our first holiday episode! Whether you're doing some last-minute shopping or looking for ideas on what to ask for, this episode is for you. Let's kick back and have some fun!

This episode is a lovely conversation between two first-year medical students, now second-year medical students at the time of publication. We unpack routines, study habits, mental health, and failure; enjoy!

It's our first interview episode, Yay! Today, we sit down with Schyler Cole, a venture capitalist at Incubate Fund in Tokyo, Japan - the first African-American woman venture capitalist in Japan. Her guiding star is to invest in and support diverse ideas, people, and organizations allowing people to have improved lives and livelihoods. She is most excited about and committed to people and companies creating solutions that give real people more financial, temporal, physical, and/or mental agency over their lives.

I have to say, Schyler and I went to the same high school. She was that girl then and she's that girl now! Together, we unpack what it means to be a venture capitalist, delve into the unique experiences of being a black woman in Japan, and uncover invaluable insights on crafting a fulfilling life.
