Notes From the New World – Details, episodes & analysis

259: This isn't your normal episode - it's a vlog from Chelsea's Substack: Slight Turbulence. ST is the wild child, rebellious, chaotic sister of In My Non-Expert Opinion; a creative playground where no topic is off limits. This vlog is about how Chelsea is doing the most - and hating it.

If you enjoyed this vlog, you'll love other Slight Turbulence posts like:

• How TF Did I get into Berghain? - a full behind the scenes of how Chelsea got into Berlin (and the world’s) most exclusive nightclub dressed like a young mom shopping at a local farmer’s market
• Jellyfish Energy - searing poetry about an ex - you'll need ice to cool off after reading
• Or the infamous “The Grief Glowup” - the person the piece was written upgraded to the paid tier to access the post (yikes!)

By paying $5/mo, or the price of an iced almond milk latte, you’ll get access to Chelsea’s most vulnerable writing, BTS posts and subscriber-only chats (and coming soon - workshops!)

258: “What if you died tomorrow? What regrets would you have? And what decisions can you make in this present moment to live a non-regrettable life?” - Chelsea Riffe

In this solo episode, Chelsea explores the concept of living a non-regrettable life, breaking down how intentional decision-making can lead to a life filled with meaning and joy. She shares her own non-regrettable decisions, like quitting a job, moving abroad and starting a podcast, and lays out practical steps for aligning your actions with your dreams, no matter how big or small.

**Snippets** from the episode:

• The word 'decide' literally means to cut off—when you make a decision, you’re cutting off something to make space for something new.
• If I died tomorrow, I’d be so happy with what I’ve created for myself and the people around me because I designed my life intentionally.
• We live under this illusion that we have endless time, but the truth is, opportunities, your body, and your mind don’t wait forever.
• Build your life like a video game—drag and drop the things you love, delete what doesn’t serve you, and create your utopia.
• It’s not about perfection; it’s about showing up in a way that your future self will look back on and say, 'F yes, I’m so proud of us.'

Your life is happening now, not someday in the future. Start making decisions that align with life you want to create, and live in a way that leaves no room for regret. Your story matters, expert or not.
