FOCUS Podcast

In this episode of the FOCUS Podcast, we chat with our guest singer-songwriter K.eena about being a woman in the music industry, women’s rights, the #metoo movement, and dress codes! We also talk about her background, influences, and some resources she recommends. After the interview portion, she graces us with her addicting melodies and angelic voice as she performs “Whirlwind” & “Sedona”.

Here are some links to the resources mentioned:

Women’s Audio Mission - https://womensaudiomission.org/

This project started with an idea focusing on honesty and perspective. In the second season of the FOCUS Podcast, Mikee and I place the focus on fellow creators around us. We invite the talented local artists, musicians, and engineers who have their own stories to tell and content to share.

They ask advice for people who are trying to invest in virtual relationships, are couples working in the same space every day, or those expecting mothers having a baby! P.S. My godson Lucas is now safely born in to the world. Congratulations!

This podcast is about perspectives and freedom of expression. As sisters who are a generation apart, Mikee and I constantly have casual conversations and realizations about important and controversial issues, our interests (kpop/anime/webtoon/manga/gaming/beauty/fashion), and what our opinions are on these based on our culture, values, and upbringing.

In the show we invite people in our lives who have different opinions and experiences, and engage in conversation to give listeners a diversified outlook regarding these topics. We also really like to have fun!

We're looking forward to sharing our lives with you, on episode at a time. Thank you for tuning in! :)
