Ask The Duo Podcast

Just a simple act of kindness can really radiate to those around you. In this episode we have Eddie Shih back to walk us through a hospital experience that changed the night for him in many different ways. 1 night, 2 completely opposite experiences 🚑.

As a healthcare professional himself, his night at the hospital after a severe accident opened his eyes to being on the other side of the spectrum and realised that he needs to change the ways he treated his own patients.

Eddie also sheds some really beautiful light on a heavy matter for some people and his insights as a radiation therapist what he foresees in the future for cancer patients.

This week with a little more relaxed episode (or heavier, however you see it). We have curated some relationship challenges off a various forums and will be giving our unqualified relationship advice.

There are some juicy ones in here, some common problems with some twists and definitely some unique relationship problems as well.

Some questions we uncover:

Whether you’re here for relationship perspective or here because you’re like us where we enjoy picking apart the problem and discuss it the stand point from each persons’ perspective to dephicer the root of the problem. OR you’re in a similar situation, join us on a full episode of talking relationships.

We enjoy doing these types of episodes because we actually do love being able to try decipher the problem as if it was our own and hopefully help someone out there.

We’ve been discussing this a lot lately between each other and we’ve really felt that being an introvert can increase chances of being misperceived. This sometimes leads to us feeling unheard or unseen.

However, as chronic self reflectors, we really wanted to dig into why we feel this happens. Also we share what we’ve learnt along the way to work with how to navigate being an introvert around friends and in the work sense.

Join us if you are an introvert or even if you are an extrovert or an ambivert trying to understand more about us! We also know that there are many other types of introverts out there and we are just one of many so let us know your story on our Instagram post!
