What is the point of social media? Why is Instagram the biggest time suck? The weight of it all is almost unbearable right now, and social media makes this year's circumstance feel even heavier. Listen to this week's episode and let us know if you're also exhausted by the mindless scrolling. 

This week, we confirm that Carissa does not understand prepositions or idioms, and that there is in fact an upper limit to friendship. Join us as we talk about emotional and social exhaustion and some other stuff, too! Follow us @NTYPpodcast and tell us who you're saying "No Thank You, Please" to this year!

We realize that it is now after Valentine's Day, but what kind of lifestyle/culture podcast would be we if we didn't talk about v-day? In this week's episode Carissa is in charge and it goes as one would expect. Give us a listen and let us know what you want to hear about next. Follow us on IG @NTYPpodcast and be nice to other humans. 

This week, the pod's guest co-host is none other than Areen Bahour. Have you ever looked around in your life and thought: Am I a Good Friend? Carissa and Areen take over from the floor, wine in hand, to talk about making and keeping friends throughout your twenties, especially with the added pressure of a global pandemic. Follow the podcast @ntyppodcast.

To kick off February at No Thank You, Please, Karishma interviews Ramita Ravi: professional dancer, startup consultant, and creative entrepreneur! Ramita and Karishma talk about starting their own ventures and trap of "having it all." Tune in this week to hear more about Ramita's path as an ivy-league educated Brown woman navigating her non-traditional career path. Learn more about Ramita: https://www.ramitaravi.com/

This week, we go back to the tried and true topic: Work-Life Balance. Or more aptly, "Integration," as Karishma lives. Carissa is a skeptic, naturally, so listen to see how both avoid burnout in a busy start-up culture. Also, Karishma reads to Carissa, so that's pretty magical too!

We are wrong, a lot. In this week's episode, post-hibernation, Carissa and Karishma are reunited (virtually) and it feels so good! New companies, new jobs, new epiphanies -- same antics and sirens interrupting the weekly pod. Tune in to catch up with us and let us know what you've just learned.

We. Are. Back. And to kick-off the new year, we are starting with an interview. This week, Carissa interviews Lauren (see title) and we talk a little bit about everything, from imposter syndrome to setting realistic goals during a pandemic. So sit back and relax with us a bit -- we hope you're staying safe and well wherever you may be!

Episode 20! And we are in December. The holidays are tough for a lot of people, and this year is no exception. Let's talk family and holidays, and start the seasonal greetings to you all! Also, we have merch now! Be sure to check us out on IG: @NTYPpodcast for more information!

In this week's episode, Carissa and Karishma talk about goal setting. Two very different strategies, both likely riddled with error. Either way, we are eager to end this year on a high note! Oh, and we've got a surprise for you. Make sure to follow @NTYPpodcast on IG to stay up to date on all the latest and greatest.
