Mindful Musings
Your Weekly Dose of Knowledge
In the realm of human interaction, there exists a trove of conversations shrouded in silence—topics that tiptoe around our thoughts, rarely daring to emerge into the open. These are the conversations that dance at the fringes of discomfort, lingering on the periphery of our awareness. At Vasl, we make those conversations happen.
Making Difficult Conversations Easier
In an increasingly digital age, where screens often take precedence over face-to-face interactions, there exists an insatiable need to explore the very essence of what defines us as humans – our connections.

Unloaded and Uncovered Podcast is based on my struggles in life, viewpoints, opinions on popular topics and pop culture (every now & then), and an unconventional way for me to uncover and unload whatever it is that is on my chest. I love the no-filter, no-holds-barred aspect of my podcast because when I've said all that I can say, I feel like a heavy weight has been lifted off of my shoulders
Richard got to where he is in life by getting past parents guilt and not doing what others want you to do.The entire time I was editing these reels and short clips, I couldn’t help but smile and say yaaaaassss Richard. I asked Richard what advice he would give to someone who may be listening or watching who are having a difficult time with NOT wanting to do what their parents want them to do. Richard talks about how he took a different path in life by being inspired by what his great grandfather accomplished as an immigrant from Romania/Russia.
