  • Family Ties (Not with Kendrick Lamar)

    Happy Monday!! Look who's back again yet over a month later... ha..ha. Anyhow I am back with a new and exciting episode talking all things family-related. In this episode I go over the stigma on staying at home after graduation and how we should normalize spending more time with parents especially in our mid-twenties. I also talk about the documentary "try harder!" and the struggles of growing up with tiger parents. I do talk about how I disagree with this parental approach and more so be sure to listen to this one!

  • Birthday Reflection and Advice

    Hi hello I know I've been very MIA, but it's all with good reasoning! In Ep.19 I recap the last few weeks and what I've been up to. I wanted to kick-off my 24th year with 12 pieces of advice so this episode is dedicated to a lot of personal advice that really comes from the struggles that I went through to get to 24.

  • From Traveling to Reading w/ Cynthia

    Welcome back to Ep #18!! I am so pumped to introduce y'all to my amazing friend Cynthia. In this episode, we talk through her career in the aviation industry and learn more about her study abroad experience during college. Lastly, we discuss what it's like to have a bookstagram and learn about how she got into reading! This episode was super fun to record, and if you are curious about what books Cynthia recommends, I'd make sure to listen (hint hint - they relate to Pride Month.)

    Please also make sure to check out her Instagram as well! There are a ton of books that are interesting and fun that I would've never found if not for it!

  • Solo Traveling Storytime

    Good morning everyone! In Ep #17, we have a short and sweet episode on my experience solo traveling for the first time ever. I went to Seattle over the memorial weekend to explore a city I had only been to as a child and to experience a trip completely planned by me for me. Although I wasn't completely alone, I learned a lot from the trip and wanted to share my experience with y'all!

  • From Banking to Start-Up w/ Aaron

    In Ep #16, I have my college buddy Aaron join us to talk about his experience working in investment banking to now working at a start-up. Along with his unique path, we talk about his very own business, The Nansen Collective.

    Established in 2020, their vision was to not only create an intuitive and curated experience for purchasing unique canvas prints, but to be an active and positive participant in the photography community.

    This episode was so motivating for me to re-listen to as I was editing that I strongly encourage you to share this with your friends and family members who are even a smidge interested in starting a business or maybe are curious about the perspective of someone who has experienced two unique career paths within their first two years after undergrad.

    And please make sure to check out The Nansen Collective here and follow them on Instagram!

This is a very casual episode and made for those who are curious about owning a pet and are thinking about adopting or even fostering one.

  • Exploring The World of Acting w/ Emily

    Happy Asian Pacific American Heritage Month! In episode #13, I invite my cousin to talk about her experience as an actor. We highlight the importance of effective communication and active listening which are skills that are important across all careers.
