  • EP 5: From Learning C-Walk To Teaching Urban Kpop Dance, Building A Dance Community and Hiring Female Dance Instructors

    Hello!


    Apologies in advance for our “like” and “definitely” in this episode.  We Like Definitely used them liberally.

    I had such a fun time speaking to Hemansu, creator of Urban K-Pop Dance London, who started with a passion for dance and expanded his interest by forming a community for dance lovers. He shares his own story very openly by highlighting the difficulties of starting his business alone and discusses his vision for the future of the company.  

    You definitely don’t want to miss his closing statement!

    FYI - Hemansu gave a shoutout to Farak Squad, which sadly did not get captured in the recording.  

    I hope you enjoy this episode and you can always connect with me on @asianworkingas on Instagram.

  • EP 2: Lida Hotak Shares Her Story About Moving From Afghanistan To Working As A Medical Information Specialist In The U.K.

    In this week’s episode I am joined by Lida Hotak, an Asian Working As a Medical Information Specialist. She shares her journey about moving from the war- torn country, Afghanistan, to many different countries before residing in England. We discuss her interest in languages and how it can be a compelling skill for the job market. Lida is a great believer in the statement that “thinking positively isn’t about expecting the best to happen every time, but accepting that whatever happens is the best for this moment”. Lida, as you will be able to tell after listening to this episode, carries a positive energy no matter the obstacles she faces.  


    Apologies about my blunder with saying Scientist when I should’ve been saying Specialist*
