Conversations on Our Way

We finally decided to record another episode before the end of the year, wanted to get one through so we can remember what 2021 was like. Hopefully all of you have been doing well. Happy New Year. 

This is the final episode of this season, kinda came out of nowhere but it feels like that to us as well. We're taking a break for 6 months so tune into this episode to listen as to why we made this decision. But of course we'll be back, with a more polished structure, better content, and hopefully better perspectives. Thanks to everyone who has been listening so far, see you in November. 

We invited another one of Flo's university friends, Gina who is a mum of a 7-month-old. It's very refreshing to see when people nowadays who are in their mid 20s and have children since it's very the norm that we're not expected to even think about kids at least until we're late 20s or early 30s. But I think hearing from Gina and how loving she is for her daughter, maybe it doesn't sound so bad after all. 

Should billionaires exist? This is kind of getting a bit political and we said at the start of the podcast that we would stay away from anything politics but this is an interesting topic to talk about nonetheless. This episode might a bit messy because honestly we're both out of our comfort zone speaking about this. But hopefully you guys can still grab something from this. 

This episode we invite one of Flo's university friends Steph on. Was my first time meeting her, spoke for about 5 minutes before recording and what you hear is our actual first conversation. She's so bubbly and extroverted, just loved it. Made me notice that I was smiling the whole time although I wasn't saying that much. I guess that's what people mean when they say some personalities are contagious. Till next week. 

Networking has always been a struggle for me because I feel like I'm 'using' other people and not being genuine in the social interaction. I think I always try to be as genuine as possible. But still can't help thinking I'm being dishonest when in a networking environment. Flo's explanation in this episode might have helped me change my mind though?

Doing simple things alone like having a meal can sometimes be something that people give a weird look to, but we're not sure why. Maybe when you do things alone, people naturally perceive you as not having someone else to do that activity with, and then make the illogical mental jump straight to: 'this person might have trouble maintaining or creating interpersonal relationships, that's why he/she/they are alone'. But is doing things alone and not having a companion 24/7 really a bad thing?

I'll write this description some other time lol 

This week we answered more questions sent in from our past guests, mainly 3 in the title. Honestly these episodes probably aren't the most eye catching when it comes to the titles, it feels the most natural for us because we're less constrained on a topic and we can just freely speak our minds, but I guess that's already the vibe that we naturally have with our dynamic. Hope you enjoy.

We're 6 months into our podcast, still can't really believe it because it seems like it passed by so quickly. This week's episode is just all about appreciating how far we've come and hoping for another good 6 months of conversations. Hope you've all been enjoying listening as much as we've been enjoying creating.
