Birth Control, Hormones & Your Skin: What’s Actually Happening OR How Hormones Shape Your Skin (and What to Do About It) (00:54:48)
What if your skin isn’t the problem—but the messenger? Could breakouts, hormonal imbalances, and low confidence all trace back to the same root cause? And what if healing your skin wasn’t about adding more products—but understanding your body’s signals? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Clearstem co-founders Danielle Gronich and Kayleigh Christina for an eye-opening conversation on how to truly heal acne from the inside out. Danielle shares her years-long struggle with cystic acne and the frustration of endless prescriptions that never worked, while Kayleigh opens up about the emotional toll of post-birth-control breakouts that left her hiding from the world. Together, they unpack the deeper connection between hormones, gut health, and skin—and why “clean” doesn’t always mean “acne-safe.” They also dive into how stress, sleep, diet, and hidden ingredients in skincare (and even haircare) can trigger breakouts—and the small, sustainable changes that can make a big difference. In this episode, you’ll learn: The truth about birth control, antibiotics, and what they do to your hormones Why exfoliation isn’t optional—and how to do it right The most common pore-clogging ingredients hiding in your skincare and makeup How to support your body’s detox and hormone balance naturally The foods and supplements that may secretly be sabotaging your skin Why healing acne starts with awareness, not perfection If you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck, this episode is your reminder: your skin isn’t the enemy—it’s your body asking you to listen.

Q&A: Let’s Talk Relationships, Creative Burnout, Jealousy, and Self-Worth (00:29:48)
What if the answers you're searching for have been inside you all along? How often do you hand your power to others without even noticing? And could your biggest struggles be invitations to finally see yourself clearly? In this deeply honest Q&A episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi opens up like never before, responding to your most personal questions—from love and friendship to purpose, comparison, creativity, and healing. Filled with humor, vulnerability, and striking self-awareness, Radhi shares the lessons she’s learned the hard way and the ones she’s still learning now. She talks about the lifelong pattern of believing others knew better than she did, how she finds calm and balance in her marriage, why friendship breakups can hurt more than romantic ones, and what it really looks like to find motivation as a creator and business owner. Radhi also gets real about comparison, jealousy, burnout, emotional eating, and self-sabotage—offering not polished perfection, but raw truth and lived experience. Through it all, she reminds us that growth isn’t linear, emotions aren’t weaknesses, and you can rewrite the way you see yourself at any time. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why trusting yourself is one of the hardest—and most transformative—skills to build How to stay an individual while loving someone deeply Why friendship breakups can be necessary for growth What creative blocks really mean and how to move through them How comparison can actually reveal what you truly want Why self-love requires evidence, not affirmations How to recognize and interrupt cycles of self-sabotage What it means to carry the people you’ve lost into who you become This episode is a reminder that you're not alone in your questions, your doubts, or your messy middle. It’s not about having it all figured out—it’s about learning to notice your life, honor your emotions, and trust that you're becoming the person you’re meant to be.

Astrology Decoded: What Your Chart Reveals About Purpose, Destiny & Growth (00:57:39)
What actually changes when you understand the blueprint you were born with? Why do certain patterns repeat? Why do some seasons feel heavy, and others open? And can astrology really give clarity without taking away your free will? In this episode, Radhi sits down with The AstroTwins, Ophira and Tali Edut, for a grounded, eye-opening conversation about astrology as a tool for self-understanding, timing, purpose, and relationships. They break down the basics in a way that finally makes sense — from the Sun, Moon, and Rising signs to the North and South Nodes, planetary cycles, and what a birth chart actually shows about your inner world. The twins share how they discovered astrology in college, how being four minutes apart created subtle differences in their charts, and why no one has a “perfect” or “lucky” chart. They explain why astrology shouldn’t be treated as a rulebook, how to avoid becoming dependent on predictions, and why free will matters just as much as the stars. They also explore love and compatibility, what Mercury retrograde is actually about, and why 2026 will bring a major collective reset as Saturn and Neptune meet at zero degrees Aries. In this episode, you’ll learn: What your birth chart reveals beyond your zodiac sign The role of your Sun, Moon, and Rising — and which one people feel the most How the North & South Nodes point to purpose, patterns, and growth Why timing matters: Jupiter return, Saturn return, retrogrades, and yearly cycles How to use astrology without letting it control your decisions What really makes two people compatible (and why “hard” relationships can be meaningful) The difference between Western and Vedic astrology What the AstroTwins predict for 2026 — and why it’s a year of new beginnings This episode is a clear, refreshing reminder that astrology isn’t about telling you who you are — it’s about helping you understand yourself better. When you know the patterns, the timing, and the possibilities, you can make choices with more confidence, clarity, and intention.

Dealing with Disappointment (And When Things Don’t Go Your Way) (00:20:15)
Could the pain you feel actually be wisdom waiting to unfold? How often do your expectations write a story your reality can’t live up to? Could disappointment be your teacher, not your enemy? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia dives deep into the emotion we all try to avoid—disappointment. She explores why this feeling cuts so deep, describing it as the space between expectation and reality—a form of grief for what could have been. Drawing from her own reflections, Radhi reveals how disappointment often says more about our assumptions than the situation itself. Instead, Radhi invites listeners to find peace in the middle ground: To feel the emotion fully, take ownership of their response, and reframe disappointment as tuition—the price we pay for wisdom. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why disappointment may be a form of grief, not failure How perfectionism and shrinking dreams both come from fear Why effort doesn’t always equal outcome—and that’s okay How to reframe disappointment as tuition, not tragedy Why feeling your emotions fully gives them less power How to stop outsourcing your peace to other people or results You’ll learn how to stop outsourcing your peace, communicate with compassion, and find meaning in moments that didn’t go as planned. This isn’t about pretending everything’s fine—it’s about trusting that you can handle what is.

How to Rebuild Trust and Connection After Growing Up in Chaos with The Crappy Childhood Fairy Anna Runkle (01:09:18)
What if the person you’ve become is still carrying the pain of who you once were? Could the patterns you can’t seem to break—disconnection, fear, self-doubt—be echoes of an unsafe childhood? And what if healing isn’t about fixing the past, but teaching your body that it’s safe now? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Anna Runkle, the creator of Crappy Childhood Fairy, for a powerful and compassionate conversation on how early emotional wounds shape the way we connect, love, and live as adults. Anna shares her journey of growing up in chaos, learning to recognize the lasting effects of trauma, and discovering the tools to calm her dysregulated nervous system. Together, Radhi and Anna explore the deep link between childhood pain and adult disconnection—and how learning to regulate your body can transform how you experience love, safety, and belonging. They unpack why traditional talk therapy doesn’t always reach the root of trauma, how emotional neglect can manifest as anxiety and isolation, and the small daily practices that help rebuild connection from the inside out. This isn’t just a conversation about childhood—it’s about learning to feel safe in your own body again. In this episode, you’ll learn: What emotional dysregulation really is—and how to recognize it in yourself How early trauma impacts the nervous system and adult relationships Why connection can feel uncomfortable after an unsafe childhood Practical tools to regulate your emotions and calm your body How writing and self-reflection can help rewire your brain for safety Why healing starts with awareness, not blame If you’ve ever felt stuck in old patterns, distant from yourself, or unsure how to feel safe with others, this episode is your reminder: your body remembers—but it can also relearn.

My Perfect Sunday Reset (00:24:10)
What if Sunday wasn’t the end of your week—but the beginning of a better one? Could a few intentional hours on Sunday change how you feel all week long? What if rest and preparation—not productivity—were the secret to peace? How much lighter would your week feel if you stopped chasing and started preparing? And what if loving your week simply started with loving your Sunday? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia shares her Sunday Reset routine—a gentle ritual that helps her move from dread to calm, from chaos to clarity. She breaks down how small acts of preparation for your mind, body, heart, and space can transform your mood and energy for the week ahead. Through warmth and reflection, Radhi invites listeners to reframe Sunday not as a day of anxiety, but as a launchpad for peace, intention, and self-compassion. In this episode, you’ll learn: How to shift your mindset from “Sunday Scaries” to “Sunday Reset” Simple rituals to recharge your mind, body, and heart Why preparation—not perfection—creates confidence How nature, movement, and rest restore emotional balance Ways to turn your Sunday into a ritual of self-love, not a chore This isn’t about having a perfect week—it’s about entering it prepared, grounded, and full of peace.

From baby voices and socks with sandals to the blurry line between confidence and cockiness, they laugh their way through the most random dating deal-breakers and what they secretly reveal about us. Amid the jokes, they slip in a few truth bombs too, like how we sometimes use icks to avoid real vulnerability.

In this episode, you'll learn: How to Tell the Difference Between an Ick and a Red Flag How to Communicate Honestly About What Bothers You How to Recognize When You’re Using an Ick as an Excuse How to Appreciate Imperfections in the People You Love It’s easy to get caught up in small things that bother us, but true connection isn’t built on perfection, it’s built on patience, humor, and understanding. Everyone has quirks, and sometimes those quirks are what make relationships real.

Today, Jay and Radhi explore the delicate balance between sharing and oversharing, both online and in everyday life.

When Knowledge Isn’t Enough: Turning What You Know Into Who You Are (00:13:13)
What if knowing more isn’t the same as growing more?Could all the information we consume actually be keeping us from wisdom?What if real growth begins—not when you learn something new—but when you live it?Are you learning to prove yourself, or to understand yourself?And what would happen if you stopped collecting knowledge and started embodying it? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia explores the difference between knowledge and wisdom—and what it means to live what you learn.

Drawing from her own experience in the wellness space, Radhi shares how she shifted from learning to impress to learning to express—from knowing to truly living.

Jay & Radhi Talk About the Pressure and Expectations Around Parenthood (00:37:36)
In this first episode of On Purpose with Radhi, Jay opens up a conversation many of us have faced but rarely unpack, being asked, “When are you having kids?” What seems like a casual question often carries a weight that touches on biology, cultural expectations, financial realities, and deeply personal struggles. Together, Jay and Radhi peel back the layers of why this question can feel so triggering, especially for women, and why the assumptions behind it often miss the heart of the matter. They explore how family pressure, societal timelines, and even social media comparisons can make people feel like they’re “behind,” while statistics actually show that having children later in life has become the norm. From the challenges of IVF and miscarriages to the fear of balancing career and motherhood, Jay and Radhi shed light on the unspoken realities couples quietly carry. They remind us that true preparation for parenthood isn’t about perfect timing, it’s about awareness, acceptance, and readiness for change. In this episode, you'll learn: How to Handle Pressure About Having Kids How to Prepare for the Real Changes of Parenthood How to Know if You’re Ready for Children How to Separate Society’s Timeline From Your Own How to Support Friends Struggling With Fertility The milestones that matter most are the ones that feel true to you, not the ones dictated by outside voices.

Stop People Pleasing (00:29:07)
Do you keep saying “yes” when every part of you wants to say “no”?Are you exhausted from overgiving, overapologizing, and overextending yourself?What if people pleasing isn’t kindness at all—but self-abandonment in disguise? In this eye-opening solo episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia unpacks the truth about people pleasing: why it feels like safety but actually chips away at your self-worth, your energy, and even your relationships. Radhi breaks down the hidden cost of constantly putting others first, how it disconnects you from your authentic self, and why being agreeable doesn’t actually bring you closer to people—it creates distance. With honesty and compassion, Radhi shares practical steps to start breaking free from the cycle: how to set boundaries, clarify your capacity, and pause before you say yes. She also explores the hard truth that other people’s reactions are not your responsibility—and why your integrity matters more than their approval. This episode is about rebuilding trust with yourself, honoring your limits, and showing up as the real you—without guilt, fear, or apology. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why people pleasing is rooted in fear, not kindness How to recognize the physical signs that a boundary has been crossed Practical scripts you can use to say no without overexplaining Why resentment is your body’s signal that you’ve overextended How to rewrite the old story: “I need to please to be loved” Why doing less with the right intention matters more than doing more with the wrong one If you’ve been disappearing into the version of yourself everyone else wants, this episode is your reminder that you are lovable, worthy, and enough—without having to earn it.

How to Boost GLP-1 Naturally (You Don’t Need Ozempic) (00:27:58)
What if your body already carries the medicine the world is selling you?Could a handful of lentils, oats, or greens do what injections promise?How does your body already whisper “I am full, I am balanced”?Could everyday spices and rituals be the most powerful weight-support tools we have?Are you listening to your body’s signals—or outsourcing them to quick fixes?

Framed by her belief that the body is a gift to be honored, Radhi offers a refreshing alternative to quick fixes: practical, loving ways to work with your body instead of against it. This conversation is an invitation to work with your body, not against it—and to see food as medicine, not an enemy.

Healing Cancer: Where Oncology Meets Ayurveda with Dr. Sam Watts (01:03:57)
Can belief measurably change your immune markers during treatment?Why can the word remission quietly program us to expect a relapse—and what language serves better?Which daily foods have the strongest evidence for anti-cancer support—and how much actually matters?Sugar, insulin, IGF-1—how do they shape cancer risk, and what’s the fruit nuance?Can circadian alignment extend survival for people living with cancer? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Ayurvedic practitioner and integrative medicine expert Sam Watts, whose understanding of healing goes far beyond conventional treatments. Rooted in ancient wisdom and backed by science, Sam offers an entirely different way to look at cancer—not just as a physical disease, but as a disconnection from our internal intelligence, lifestyle, and emotional ecosystem. They talk about the mind-body connection, and how emotions like fear and helplessness can literally suppress your immune system, while belief and empowerment activate healing at the cellular level. Sam shares the foods that actively kill cancer cells, the lifestyle habits that disrupt our circadian rhythm and hormones, and why "hope" is the single strongest predictor for survival in cancer patients. In this episode, you’ll learn: How belief and mindset directly influence immune function and recovery What foods (like turmeric, matcha, and EVOO) are backed by science as anti-cancer powerhouses Why poor sleep and synthetic skincare might be more dangerous than you think How Ayurveda offers personalized, intuitive tools for healing The importance of circadian alignment and Ojas in preventing disease What it means to support someone beyond just conventional medicine How to detox from microplastics and endocrine disruptors—naturally Whether you're on a healing journey, supporting someone who is, or just want to better understand how to live preventatively and purposefully—this is one of the most profound health episodes Radhi has ever recorded.

What If the Thing You’re Avoiding Is the Key to Feeling Better? (00:17:31)
Do you avoid hard things thinking you’re protecting your peace?Are you mistaking short-term comfort for real self-care?What if the things you run from are the key to your healing?How do you know when a boundary has become a wall? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia takes a deep, honest look at avoidance—why we do it, why it feels so good in the moment, and why it can quietly sabotage our happiness, relationships, and growth. She explores how modern “self-care” culture has blurred the lines between protecting our peace and avoiding discomfort, and why choosing the harder, messier path is often the most loving thing we can do for ourselves. From subtle coping habits like overworking or overthinking, to more obvious escapes like walking away from relationships or avoiding difficult conversations, Radhi reveals how avoidance not only delays pain but also keeps us disconnected from our truest selves. She offers practical, compassionate ways to face discomfort, process the past, and build the resilience that creates lasting peace. In this episode, you’ll learn: The difference between true self-care and disguised avoidance How unprocessed pain lingers in your body and shapes your present Why short-term comfort can lead to long-term struggle How to spot avoidance in subtle everyday behaviors Practical ways to face discomfort and build emotional resilience Why doing “hard things” boosts self-trust and confidence How building resilience in one area of life strengthens all others The long-term freedom that comes from choosing the harder path now Whether you’ve been putting off a conversation, ignoring a past hurt, or avoiding your next big leap, this episode is a compassionate call to stop running—not because life will be pain-free, but because you are stronger than the pain you fear.
