Guest appearance on The Adrian Tan Show

I opened up to Adrian Tan about reinvention, identity, and why I prefer to be called a content creator—not an influencer.

I recently joined Adrian Tan on his podcast to talk about a journey that’s been anything but linear, from getting arrested as a teenager to building a storytelling-led platform rooted in vulnerability, identity, and truth.

We talked about why I started Human Algorithm, how I balance creating content while raising a neurodiverse daughter, and why I’ve always resisted the label “influencer.” I want to create human work that actually means something.

This episode gets into:

• My early years and the turning points that shaped me

• Leaving corporate media to build something that reflects my values

• How I think about audience, authenticity, and oversharing

• The systems I use to write with clarity and intention

• Why Human Algorithm exists and who I built it for

“I’m not trying to go viral. I’m trying to create work that outlives the algorithm.”

This is one of my most practical and personal podcast conversations yet, a behind-the-scenes look at how I write, why I share, and the emotional architecture behind building a meaningful brand.
