A Really Good Cry

Do you ever look in the mirror and immediately start criticizing your body?
What if the problem isn’t your body—but the way you’ve learned to talk to it?
And what if confidence has less to do with changing how you look, and more to do with changing how you think?

In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi opens up an honest, deeply personal conversation about body image, self-criticism, and the exhausting pressure to look a certain way. From childhood comments that linger for decades to the daily habit of body-shaming ourselves without even noticing, Radhi explores why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies—and how to begin healing that relationship with compassion instead of control.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why most body insecurities aren’t actually yours to begin with
The difference between caring for your body and obsessing over it
How constant self-criticism keeps you stuck in a cycle of dissatisfaction
Why confidence is an energy, not a body type
Practical mindset shifts to stop attacking your body and start respecting it
This isn’t about forcing body positivity or loving every inch of yourself overnight—it’s about ending the inner war, reclaiming peace, and remembering that your body is the least interesting thing about you.

Have you ever wondered why you feel like a different version of yourself each week?
What if your hormones weren’t a problem—but a powerful built-in guidance system?
Could learning your body’s rhythm radically transform your energy, mood, and health?
And what if everything you were taught to fear about your cycle… was simply wrong?

In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with Alisa Vitti—hormone expert, cycle-syncing pioneer, and bestselling author of In The Flow. Together, they unearth the truth every woman deserves to know: your body isn’t working against you… it’s speaking to you.

Alisa breaks down the powerful—and widely overlooked—Infradian Rhythm, the second biological clock that governs a woman’s metabolism, stress response, brain function, immune health, and emotional rhythm. She explains why so many women today struggle with hormonal issues and how simple, intuitive shifts in food, movement, sleep, and mindset can completely transform your cycle.

From the science of each phase, to why cramps aren’t normal, to understanding why strength training, nourishment, and rest should shift throughout the month—this episode is a masterclass in reconnecting with your body’s design rather than fighting it.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

What the Infradian Rhythm is—and why every woman needs to understand it
How cycle syncing can eliminate cramps, mood swings, fatigue & PMS
Why women must eat, train, and rest differently in each phase
The surprising hormone that declines first—and quietly triggers perimenopause
How melatonin, oxytocin & nitric oxide support women at every age
Why feminine energy is a biological need, not an aesthetic
What to avoid (like whey protein & inflammatory oils) for better hormonal balance
How pleasure practices can extend ovulation and ease menopause
Why celebrating your period can literally change your experience of it

This is your reminder that your body is not confusing, inconvenient, or unpredictable.
It’s intelligent. It’s cyclical. It’s powerful. And it’s yours.

Who are you when the thing that defined you is taken away?
What happens when the life you planned no longer exists?
How do you grieve a future that never happened?
Can uncertainty become a place of growth instead of fear?

In this deeply moving episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with cognitive scientist and author Dr. Maya Shankar for an honest conversation about identity, loss, and navigating life’s most unexpected transitions. Dr. Maya is the author of The Other Side of Change: Who We Become When Life Makes Other Plans, a book rooted in both science and lived experience.

Maya shares the story of her childhood as a violin prodigy — accepted into Juilliard at nine and studying under Itzhak Perlman — until a career-ending injury at fifteen forced her to grieve not just the violin, but the version of herself she thought she would be. She opens up about how losing the violin meant losing her confidence, her identity, and the future she had built her entire life around.

She also speaks candidly about her fertility journey, including miscarriage, surrogacy, and the realization that some desires are shaped by cultural expectations of womanhood. Maya reflects on how choosing to pause her path to motherhood brought unexpected peace and clarity.

Radhi shares her own experiences of identity loss — from moving to New York and no longer being able to practice as a clinical dietitian, to navigating grief after the peaceful passing of her grandmother. Together, they explore how identity can unravel when the “what” of our lives changes, and why anchoring ourselves in why we do things allows us to evolve without losing ourselves.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why identity rooted in roles and achievements is fragile
How grief shows up when we lose a future we imagined
The difference between what you do and why you do it
Why humans crave certainty — and how to live without it
How to find safety in community instead of clear answers
What the “end of history illusion” reveals about personal growth
How mental time travel can help ease anxiety and fear
Why witnessing human goodness can restore hope and meaning

This episode is a gentle reminder that change doesn’t mean something went wrong — sometimes it means life is asking you to become more than you planned.

What if starting something new isn’t the real challenge—but finishing it is?
Why do so many projects, goals, and ideas die in the “messy middle”?
What if completing a task isn’t just about willpower, but about shifting who you are at a deeper level?
Are you a person who loves beginnings but avoids endings—or could you train yourself to finish with ease?
In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia explores the gap between starting and finishing. Drawing from science, Ayurveda, and her own life, she explains why our brains crave novelty but resist follow-through—and how to move from the dopamine rush of beginnings to the serotonin stability of completion.
Through honesty, practical tools, and gentle insight, Radhi guides listeners to shift identity, build momentum, and cultivate the discipline needed to see projects through—all while learning to celebrate small wins along the way.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why starting is easy but finishing is hard—and how your brain tricks you
How to turn “too many open drawers” into actionable focus
Tools to create micro-finish lines and train your boredom muscle
How to shift from being a “starter” to a “finisher”
Ways to make progress sustainable, consistent, and personally rewarding

This isn’t about working harder—it’s about finishing smarter.
