Is being "too smart" something to be ashamed of? Or is it the act of calling it out more shameful than the former?

In this episode, Heide and Isaiah tackle "smart-shaming" which is evidently seen in our society. Apart from discussing points to ponder from the phenomena itself, they also shed light on systemic factors as to why it remains prominent today.

Just like what Hannah Montana sang, "You can change your style, you can change your jeans//You can learn to fly, and you can chase your dream", Heide has also been stirring up some changes for this podcast!

Being positive has always been our defence mechanism whenever something makes us feel strong emotions. However, how effective is it to merely say that one should focus at the brighter side of things when faced with adversity? Listen as Heide discusses the dangers of falling into the traps of toxic positivity.

Heide casually talks about what she has been doing to distract herself from everything that is happening in the world. By picking up new hobbies and setting goals, she is somewhat able to calm herself down. Despite of this, she discusses how distraction can only last for a short while and how reality must be dealt with at the end of the day.
