Welcome to Mona-Vated, a podcast by Mona Vand, former pharmacist-turned-holistic-focused wellness educator and entrepreneur. In this podcast (and IRL), small talk is out, and meaningful conversations are in. Mona takes you on an ever-evolving journey where she explores all aspects of well-being, from nutrition and mindfulness to spirituality, self-discovery, lifestyle and fashion.
Mona believes in the power of small, consistent efforts to foster sustainable habits that promote a balanced and healthy lifestyle. The goal of this podcast is to spark conversation and empower you with the knowledge to make informed choices.
Get cozy, grab a matcha (or your favorite drink), and prepare to be inspired as we bring you thoughtful interviews and real-life stories. This is a forever journey. Self-growth has no limits. Remember, doing your best is an ongoing journey, not a final destination.

March is all about celebrating and honoring amazing women, and this week's episode features a woman who has had an incredible, if not tumultuous, journey. Amanda Nguyen is the founder of the civil right organization, Rise, a 2019 Nobel Peace Prize Nominee and one of the 2022 TIME Women of the Year.
On this episode of Core Self, Amanda joins Chloe and Mona to talk about her path from learning to be a sexual assault survivor to an advocate, aiming to bring equality to sexual assault survivors across the country and around the world. She also talks about what drove her to start Rise and why her goal is to educate everyone on how they can drive democracy and create change.
*Warning* This episode contains conversation about sexual assault.
