Episode 2 of 4 with Rayan Mansour and Valery RodriguezCreators, artists and any person who produces anything has more to tell than what their work already conveys. The modernization of communication systems is easing many people into participating in the global arena of contemporary story-telling. Anyone who exists; creates, meaning there's always a narrative to share. With vulnerability and transparency, one can realize that stories exist within everything, even the ones that have already been told, there are always details that may escape and or go unnoticed from any piece of information. I am dedicated to conducting and demonstrating profound tales, while engaging in organic conversations with individuals of the global community who speak volumes about who we are and what we face as humans, through various elements of culture and other assets that impact our ability to interrelate and learn from one another.

This episode is uploaded with video and other visuals on YouTube.Channel name: Valery RodriguezA migraine helped me feel at peace. It may sound ironic, but at times we don't get to choose who or what are our teachers, but we do get to decide whether we learn from any lesson that presents itself. There are many videos/films that feature unique accounts of how some individuals attained distinctive lessons from inanimate objects, animals, and other usual characters. We learn from ourselves at all times, and sometimes we don't notice that but when healing, one might find relief in the most unexpected and unfamiliar occurrences. 

This episode is uploaded with video and other visuals on YouTube. Channel name: Valery RodriguezI thought I needed to know everything at every given time. I would complicate my days by trying to predict what I was supposed to do or not. Doing that made me feel misaligned with my true desires. I went to a random location on what was supposed to be a “school day” for me. On that day, I gave my intuition a test run with no expectations and complete trust in my interests. Now, I aim to live most of my days just like that one. Do you know what can take you to valuable destinations? Courage. When inspiration strikes, take action because the quest will most likely contain unknown outcomes that can ultimately bring you closer to understanding yourself and other actualities. 

I spontaneously recorded this on my phone in my car, excuse the audio quality!Humans can choose to make something out of what occurs to us, anything can be seen as either an unbeatable battle or a challenge. You are the person who is in charge of what outlook to take whenever you begin to build anything. You have to be sure that you truly want whatever you start because if you're not aware of how much you are willing to sacrifice for your creation, then whatever obstacle lies in the journey ahead can knock you off your path.The hard work that it takes to obtain favorable outcomes will not always be a smooth road, it definitely hasn't been for me. The beneficial part of the emotional and physical hurdles that are present while working for your dreams is that they will reassure you of the importance of what you're doing.That's why I love adversity with any aspect of life, having rough seas helps people like myself become aware of the crucial role faith plays in arriving at any destination. Whether you decide to sail through any storm, turn around back to land, and or change course, know that you are riding waves and through their push, they will always transport you away from stagnation.

EP #12An oracle card, two sea creatures, and the man with the golden touch have come together to teach about the freedom of self-expression. Animals in their nature continue along with their business without worrying about what anyone else thinks of them. It can seem like an obvious observation with a clear scientific answer to basic animalistic behavior but regardless of that, can't we all learn something from any critter?  Certainly, the ocean has many secrets that humanity may not ever get to uncover, but I have received a clear message from the beings of the wild, and this episode spills on how some creatures of the oceans can enlighten someone on what it means to be authentic.

Guest: Nic Patino There was a shirt I wore last year that got plenty of compliments. It was a white shirt with only two words on it: “diversity matters.” This caught the attention of many people and I always had always asked myself why. The word "diversity" is interesting because it can produce multiple definitions that can mean something different for everyone, and that's why I became incredibly interested in talking to diverse people because I figured I’d learn a multitude of topics in one sitting. Nic Patino is one of those individuals where you could ask him for advice on a specific area in your life, and come out of the conversation with a refreshed view of not only the topic at hand but the approach you may take towards many things. Join Nic & I on our conversation involving themes of self-discovery and innovative perspectives on self-assessment.

Guest: Zhara MarajWhen one tries to make sense of their life without dismissing certain scenarios as "coincidences," many instances can be perceived as some sort of game that is based on demonstrating the connectivity between strangers. Whatever force one believes is behind uniting people, I certainly can prove that there are obvious signs that suggest why individuals came across each other in the timing necessary for their own growth. This episode is built upon the discernment that Valery and Zhara had when they noticed what game pieces were moved in order for them to encounter one another.

These conversations are focused around individuals who have, want or are in the process of taking leaps of faith towards their interests, even if fear comes along with every jump.Guest: Victoria Fernandez

There’s certain captivation regarding documentaries. Sometimes they can blur the lines between what various perceptions one has of life, and some people can agree that watching a documentation of a persons reality can inspires us to make a film out of some aspects of our lives. Nowadays if you got a camera or a mic nearby, there’s a possibility that an audience can come across a part of you. This episode is dedicated to everyone not only ADHDers, it aims to encourage documentation of any journey that will promote righteous growth and a first look at my experiences with having ADHD.

It all began at the Tagus River where I tried to convince my sister that my spontaneity is not ONLY due to my restlessness but instead it’s also a way of displaying my certain addiction of overcoming fear. I carry that approach towards travel and many others are beginning to do the same now more than ever since the symptoms of the new age of exploration are here! More and more people are joining the modern travel revolution and noticing the crucial role that unfamiliar lands and diverse humans play in self-discovery.

After finding a connection with two unrelated events and stories that had to do with the Azores, I was hooked on figuring out where more of my digging could lead to. There were no coincidences here, neither did I believe in them anymore. I spent three months connecting dot after dot regarding this archipelago, and I found many relations of my being with just about everything. An unexpected event occurred that led me to release this long-awaited episode, I now share where my curiosity struck gold in the Azores . . . there's something in the works in this place and it carries pure enchantment.

A vintage shirt, my grandma playing Sudoku, and a mesmerizing picture helped me arrive at the Amalfi Coast. Being in Italy was like staying in an open 24/7 art museum, where you are able to enter the art and become part of whatever story the paintings have created. Come ride the vibration of my words as if you're meandering through the blue ribbon drive along Costiera Amalfitana.

I share a birthday with my fraternal twin sister, which means that we sometimes have to agree on where we both want to celebrate our birthdays, and this year we went on a Safari! our 22nd was the best of all, not because of the exotic animals but because I finally have grown to enjoy the essence of a birthday!

New Mexico is underrated but that allows it to be appreciated by the ones who truly admire and care for its beauty. As a kid, I would always visit New Mexico during the winter months, that tradition sort of ended when I began college... until one unexpected day in March where I made a 10-hour drive to New Mexico as a “study break.” This trip was more than a refresher, it awakened me to the first time I felt a true sense of awareness towards myself and what exists around us. Nature has relatable ways of showing its reflection in ourselves. Join me as I tell the story of my transformative study break and after listening, I encourage you to seek different ways of learning that incorporate nature into it.

I have been transported to Día de los Muertos almost every day since the this pandemic started. Most of these days, I wake up and I immediately begin to sing songs from Disney and Pixar’s original film Coco. It is is kind of unusual for me to do this therefore, why is this happening? Everything in life is interconnected, there has to be a reason why a special Mexican holiday and a movie’s soundtrack keeps popping up in my daily routine although I have never even celebrated Day of the Dead. Join the quest I embark on in this episode as I figure out what finding my own happiness has to do with Mexico.

At Wanderer Impulse, I do things differently. When a location is introduced in an episode, a “to-do” list or an itinerary does not follow. The main focus of travel topics is to decipher and interpret the interconnected wisdom that a place and its people hold. Its also about uniting the world in means that we can perceive through the answers from our curiosity.Welcome to the first episode based on travel...Costa Rica will be talked about in many of my episodes because its spontaneity is such an essential part of the Pura Vida experience. What about hospitality you may ask? Well, that answer is all within the play button!

If you're highly creative and innovative, chances are you may have your fair share of overthinking. The Wanderer explores why some people doubt themselves when "originality" describes us perfectly. Through a series of events told on this episode, you will encounter an optimistic approach towards overthinking and what that looks like through stories of the past and present of your imaginative podcast host. We also explore my peculiar childhood that tends to be in the limelight quite often.
