Ask The Duo Podcast

This was such a hard question to peel apart, to some it could be an inherited trait and to others, it’s a skill. There are some that are grown to have more resilience than others. But we wanted to discuss if this is something you are born with and inherit or is it developed through your experiences in life.

Ava Wong (Amelia’s mum) joins us today to discuss what her thoughts are around this topic of resilience and share her experiences where it helped her build this skill.

We also share our own personal stories and moments on where we had to build on our resilience. As well has going through the 5 pillars of resilience.

We would love to hear you share your stories on moments that built your resilience too!

Bringing you a different kind of episode today. Discussing the moral of the story from a K drama we’ve recently watched, Tomorrow. BUT we’re not trying to do a typical K drama review.

We really wanted to dig into the message that they shared on the show. How we can bounce back from when we hit rock bottom. Every story in this drama taught us great ways to think and look at life, EVEN when life gets hard and you really have hit rock bottom.

Such a great drama to watch if you love something that brings you different perspective. The story is around life and death but actually surprisingly really light hearted!

From graduating with Honors in Economics to PHD in Law to run running her own Design business, Paper & Desk. When Rachel decided to chase her dreams and switch careers into graphic design, she never had imagined herself running her own business in design.

Don't switch off just yet if your line of work is not in design, because this episode is really the best example of you really can't plan out what your life will look like. Plan changes and your direction changes.

Rachel shares many words of wisdom and gives us many words of truth that we all need to hear. From gathering inspirational quotes she encounters from Bunnings to books she's read that has changed her life. She has really shown that life is a big journey and there really is no destination. Her positivity is so inspiring to help us see the light in any challenging times. Especially when your road ahead is unclear, she emphasises that there is always many more paths to explore.

You only fail if you stop trying and all you can really do for yourself is to put 1 foot forward, 1 step of the time.

Just like everything in life, careers has their highs and their lows. Sometimes the lows may even put you in situations where you feel like you need a break. But in society, many tell us that we should at least have the next job lined up before you quit. However, what if you are honestly just mentally drained, overworked and working has just caused way too many mental break downs.

Today we sit with Hao Tran to discuss his recent movement in leaving his career without another job lined up. We dig deep into the bigger plans behind taking this action and why he felt that it’s better to just leave before things get out of hand.

Sometimes it also is a difficult question because you just aren’t sure if it’s just a simple break you need or it’s actually something that is affecting your mental well-being where you need to just take the step back. Away from it all and have a healthy reset.

If you’re currently stuck in a similar situation, unsure if you’re making the right decision in your career. Feeling like you need a reset but not sure if naked quitting is the right idea. Tune in to our episode with Hao as he share his thoughts and opinions and things he considered before fully quitting his job.

Also if you’re a killer for analogies, you wouldn’t want to miss this one!
