What We’re Talking About: Intuition, Sports, and Modern Love
Dear Hyphenly readers,
If you’ve been following us closely, you may have noticed we skipped our usual Wednesday quiz. Don’t worry, we haven’t forgotten you! In fact, we’re leveling up 🎉
On September 24, we’ll be launching our first-ever monthly quiz: bigger questions, better fun, and higher stakes. It goes live at 5 AM ET and features exciting giveaways. Mark your calendars–you won’t want to miss it!
And although we’ve bid goodbye to Banterly now (don’t worry, you can still listen to all the episodes here), there’s plenty more brewing behind the scenes.
Want a sneak peek? Join our focus group and help shape the future of Immigrantly.
Today, we’re catching you up with what’s been happening at Immigrantly.
Saadia talks to author Mory Fontanez about intuition as a key to building compassion in our community on Immigrantly. Our Sportly host, Kavitha, shares her favorite moments from attending twenty straight US Opens. Mehak talks to her friend Eric on the Love-ly Podcast about how to build a romantic connection in 2025.
IMMIGRANTLY
In this gripping episode, Saadia sits down with Mory Fontanez, author of “Higher Self: Reclaiming the Power of Your Intuition, to dig into the messy, fascinating truth about our inner voice. Their conversation moves from the personal to the cultural to the global: what happens when fear masquerades as intuition, how immigrant stories shape the way we listen to ourselves, why Western culture sidelines instinct while Eastern traditions revere it, and what it means to reclaim your higher self in a world designed to keep us in fear.

In this special solo episode of Sportly, host Kavitha Davidson steps out from the sidelines to share her most unforgettable sports moments of the year from her 20th straight US Open and Venus Williams’ inspiring return to the electric energy of Opening Day at Yankee Stadium, the Knicks’ playoff frenzy at Madison Square Garden, and the Liberty’s championship parade down the Canyon of Heroes.

LOVE-LY
Mehak sits down with her friend Eric, a former competitive figure skater turned entrepreneur, to talk about love, dating, and connection in today’s world. Eric shares his journey growing up as an only child, coming out, navigating family expectations, and why he’s waited for the right relationship instead of settling. Together, Mehak and Eric unpack the complexities of hookup culture, the allure of long-distance sparks, self-awareness in love, and why saying hello to strangers feels nearly impossible in modern dating.
