After a long hiatus I've decided to upload a timestamp of a pivotal time in my life. Blessings to all. Hope you enjoy.

Chapter 12: Lessons In June

Boogie Check - is the phrase my dad always used when doing a sound test on a microphone. 
Similarly, this mini-episode is the “sound check” for this show. 
It’s our initial, mini episode to introduce the themes, tone & core of the story.

RADIO CULLOM is an examination of my relationship with my father and my sister - as she & I  work through trying to piece together an understanding of who our dad was, apart from us, since he passed away before we had the chance to get to know him as full-fledged adults.

This episode provides a glimpse into the inspiration for the show with an introduction to myself (the host), the subject of my Dad - (his death & his career), and my sister, Jenn.

RadioCullom Episode 1: BoogieCheck

Welcome to Soundbytes by J., an audio scrapbook that captures the small, vivid moments that make life worth archiving. In this entry, I share my experiences from April 2025 — a month full of travel, connection, and unexpected insights. Crawfish critiques and car meet surprises, and family stories from South Carolina to Louisiana.

This is a space for memory-keeping, storytelling, and building a community through audio frequency. Feel free to join the conversation in the comments, share your takeaways, or simply vibe out. Thanks for listening.

Entry Highlights:
– "You will only ever exist here and now. Don’t live in the past or the future — happiness lives in the present."
– "Remember that it takes confidence to be stupid. Change takes time, but through consistency, you’ll begin to see it."
– "You live your best life when you do exactly what you want and stop apologizing for it."
– "Behave in ways that make you happy, and how you’re perceived will naturally filter out misaligning energies."
– "I’m at the crossroads of all the best qualities of my past and present, working toward my future self."

ep II - make sumn - may 2025

In this June entry, I’m moving with meaning. I’m learning to take up space with purpose, to chase the things that light me up, and to lean into the messiness of caring deeply. This month is all about patience, clarity, and showing up with intention—whether that means standing firm on what I believe, redefining failure as a foundation, or remembering that my regular life is someone else’s dream.

The Emotional Rollercoaster of Life Transitions | AvaMind Audio Reflection

In this July entry, I’m tending to the maintenance—checking in on how I’ve been moving through life, and making space to adjust the things that no longer fit. Halfway through the year, I’m learning to move with more discernment: being intentional about the energy I carry, the people I keep close, and the goals I choose to chase.

Turning 30 isn’t far off, and that milestone has me thinking about where I’m headed—not with pressure, but with clarity. This episode is a mid-year tune-up. A reminder that consistency is care, that rest is resistance, and that the road ahead is only as smooth as the work you’re willing to put in now.
