Behind the articles that pop up on our news feed, there’s a reporter staying up late at night typing up a storm on their dimly lit laptop. Terry Nguyen is a reporter for The Goods at Vox, covering internet & consumer trends. Not only do her articles cover on-trend topics that fly under the radar of mainstream media, they’re also imbued with a sense of cultural understanding that fosters constructive discussion and empathy.

In today’s episode, Terry shares what it’s like to be a reporter, divulges the secret origins of her writing career, and discusses the complicated cross-section of activism, social media, and fake news.

TW: This episode contains stories of depression, suicide, and self-harm. 
National Suicide Prevention Hotline: 800-273-8255 

ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, commonly portrayed as an inability to sit still and concentrate. While that isn’t completely off base, the reality of ADHD, especially when undiagnosed, is much more complex. 

Our friend Carissa joins us today to share her experience with ADHD - she opens up about living with undiagnosed ADHD, navigating the confusing steps to getting a diagnosis, and unlearning the internalized shame and stigma in her ongoing journey to self-acceptance.

There seems to be a lot of contention about exactly what year the cutoff is between Gen Z and Millenials... so we brought on some 1998 friends to confirm! Today we're excited to have Sally, Linda, and Ming from Moving Oolong come on to discuss whether they identify as Gen Z, what it was like to graduate on Zoom, and starting adulthood amidst a global pandemic. 

Sally, Linda, and Ming started Moving Oolong Podcast to share their stories and growing pains as recent college graduates from class of 2020. Their intersecting identities as Asian American women play a large role in shaping their experiences as young adults and hope this podcast acts as a time-capsule to remember and reflect on this time of transition in their lives.

Having your own space is something we’ve dreamed about since we were young. Being a homeowner just means you get to decorate it the way you like……right? This week we invited our friend to walk us through the fun stuff, and not-so-fun stuff she’s experienced in the last few years of owning her own space. Put on your construction hats and get your mops ready for some drywall mishaps, cleaning tips, and other maintenance stories!

Is your current life the "dream life" you've always envisioned for yourself? What's stopping you from becoming the "dream" you? We don't have these answers for you...so we brought on a very qualified friend to do so!

Today we are so stoked to have on Lillian So - a life coach, personal trainer, and yoga therapist currently based in San Francisco. Not only does she explain the importance of identifying your most important intentions, she also walks us through how to make the dream life achievable.

If you're a lost, anxious twenty-something (like us), don't miss this episode - it's a good one!

We kind of grow up alongside the content creators that we love. And for some of us, our favorite content creators are the ones who wear their heart on their sleeve. 

YouTuber Joelle Park has videos spanning over 7 years of her life. Her channel features everything from high school/college advice videos, heartfelt videos addressing important topics like racism and internalized misogyny, and goofy vlogs with her friends and family. Not only do we love her fun content, we love her for her raw, open vulnerability with her viewers. 

Today we discuss trends in media and the expectations they place on creators, the balancing act of pushing out content you enjoy vs. content that does well, and the impact of filming vlogs on self-confidence.

When life feels like it’s running a million miles per hour, taking care of the big things feels much more urgent than the little things. But often times, it’s the little things that bring the most joy! 

Inspired by Ingrid Joy Fetell Lee’s Joyful Planner, which encourages us to actively plan for joy rather than expect it to spontaneously stumble into our lives, we express our gratitude about the little things we’ve been doing in the past few months that have brought us joy. 

Wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving from our families to yours ♡

Birth control can be intimidating. There’s so many different shapes, sizes, and forms of use, not to mention the horror stories you hear through WebMD or your friends.

Whether you see them as a pesky chore or a form of empowerment, it’s an essential part of many of our lives. Today we tackle our experiences with different types of birth control, any side effects we’ve experienced, and the involvement of our male partners in our BC journey!
