Cut the Small Talk with Danielle Maglente

In this episode of Cut the Small Talk, I have a discussion with my sister, Shanon Maglente, on the recent hate crimes against the Asian community, implicit biases and microaggressions, the glorification of being "quiet" in Asian Culture, and more.

Shanon is a writer for GoodHouseKeeping.com and recently wrote an article on the above topics called "Why Some Asian Americans Are Staying Silent About the Ongoing Hate Crimes." Link here: https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/life/a35630674/how-to-support-asian-american-community-hate-crimes-violence/

In today's episode I talk about self-love- what it means to me and how I practice it!

In my life, I've learned that while veering off course of our chosen paths might have been (and still is) discouraged, it’s often the pivots you make in life, and those rare opportunities that you just say “yes” to, that teach us the most about ourselves- what lights us up, what brings meaning to our lives, and how resilient we actually are.

In this next episode of “Cut the Small Talk,” I catch up with an old college friend, Matt Pana, who continues to make successful pivots in his life that have led him to opportunities and careers that cater to both his passions and his desire for sustainability.

Many young professional adults today struggle with feeling like they are not worthy of their accomplishments, and can often live life in fear of being discovered as a "fraud" in different aspects of their lives- whether it's in their careers, in their relationships, etc. This phenomenon is known in the world of psychology as "Imposter Syndrome" and it's what I tackle in this next episode of Cut the Small Talk with two awesome women, Dr. Jenny Fagel and Dr. Kathleen Wang, the founders of the Grown Up Asian.

The Grown Up Asian is a life coaching program geared to help Asian American women live up to the most authentic version of themselves, which was founded through their own search for purpose and their drive and passion to help others find theirs!

To sign up for their free virtual workshop on "How to Crush Your Goals" that's scheduled for January 13th @ 5:30 pm PST/8:30 pm EST: https://nxw16bkt.pages.infusionsoft.net/

Being single doesn't always feel great- and being single during a pandemic is a whole other story.

But what if I told you that you can start feeling 10 times better about being single right now?

In this episode of Cut the Small Talk, I got a chance to chat with Shani Silver of A Single Serving Podcast, about how she changed her negative mindset on being single to a positive one, and how she made a career out of creating content for single women to challenge the way the media and society negatively portrays singlehood. Her content is a game changer for real!

So it has been a crazy couple of months as our world has been shaken with political injustice in various aspects of our lives, and racial injustice illuminated through the Black Lives Matter movement. There is still so so much work to be done, and I hope we all continue to do that work every single day, not just online and in the media, but in our homes, in every difficult conversation with have with a friend or family and in every difficult realization we make about ourselves and the gaps in our understanding and knowledge about the struggles of those who don’t look like us.

I hope we also find some light in these dark times, and hold on to those moments to build strength to show up genuinely and effectively when needed.

Something that has brought light to my days was this conversation with @DJLola.K for the next episode of the #CutTheSmallTalkPodcast, where she discusses how she learned how to DJ in just 30 days, and how that small step turned into a DJ career that has been growing successfully for the past 2 years! This story brought me so much inspiration, and I know it will for others, so have a listen!

KYM'S SOCIAL MEDIA!
