So... building a good credit score may not be that hard?You always hear that having a good credit score is important and difficult to maintain — but no one really tells you how to actually build one, especially when you're just starting out. We kept seeing this question pop up in our DMs and comments, so we decided to compile all your burning finance questions and answer them in this QnA episode of Figuring It Out 🔍With the help of finance pros Peter Yong and Frankie Lim, we learned that one of the easiest ways to build your credit score is by simply placing your recurring bills — like phone or Spotify — on your credit card and paying them off consistently 📱✅. It automates your credit usage, keeps your score active, and most importantly, it builds a healthy credit habit — as long as you treat your credit card like a debit card and only spend what you already have in cash 💸Want more tips like this?

So… I Gave It My All and Still Almost Failed 😮‍💨Growing up, we were always told that if you just work hard, everything will work out. But what happens when you do give it your all… and it still doesn’t go the way you hoped?In this new segment called Yap & Chill, we’re slowing things down and chatting about some of the lessons we’ve learned in our early 20s — the good, the bad, and the brutally honest. One of the biggest ones? Learning that sometimes, your best might not be enough to control the outcome… and that’s okay.

So… Are We Really Weaker Than Our Parents’ Generation? 🤔Is it true that the older generation is more tahan lasak than us? Or are we just wired differently because we’ve grown up with more comfort and opportunity? 🧠💭 This was one of the many thought-provoking questions we answered in this career Q&A episode — where we tackled your DMs, comments, and late-night overthinking.From employer POVs to employee struggles, we did our best to give both sides of the story — even if the answers weren’t so straightforward. Maybe every generation is softer… but maybe that’s because our parents worked hard to give us that softness in the first place.I don’t know… food for thought?

So...Apparently You Can Ask For a Pay Raise Just 3 Months In?! 😳💸Nobody really teaches you how to ask for a raise. And let’s be honest — just thinking about asking your boss for more money is nerve-wracking enough 😵‍💫. I always assumed you had to wait like... a year or two?? But turns out, some people start the convo as early as 3 months in 😮‍💨 (although yes, it also depends on your boss... sigh).As someone who's still figuring this whole “adulting” and “career” thing out, I needed help. So I brought in Frankie and Ai Lyn to break it down for me. When do you ask? What do you say? How do you even start the conversation without sounding greedy or ungrateful?🎙️ In this episode, we unpack the art of negotiating your pay — with real advice, awkward stories, and the mindset you actually need before walking into that meeting room.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hosted by Melody, this podcast discusses anything and everything related to adulthood —the highs, lows, messy parts, and fun parts.

I Constantly Overthink If I’m on the Right Career Path 😵‍💫Am I supposed to be really good at one thing? Or should I try to do a little bit of everything? As someone who overthinks literally everything, I’ve asked myself this question more times than I can count — and I know I’m not the only one 🫠Whether you’re still in uni, a fresh grad, or already working but feeling stuck, this episode is for you. I sat down with Nicole (a specialist) and Ai Lyn (a generalist) to help me finally make sense of this dilemma.
