  • EP10 Redefining “Success” in the Asian Culture with Jacky Ip
    What does success mean to you? Fast cars, a six-figure salary and owning a house before 30 yrs old? Our guest, Jacky Ip, shares that growing up in the Asian culture, he was taught to believe that being able to afford material things is what signified success - until he got it. In this episode we address the social pressure that can be felt by people with an Asian background to be “successful”. We discuss with Jacky the expectations he felt from his ”traditional” immigrant parents, friends and family and the impact it had on his life decisions. He shares the courage it took for him to leave a company he co-founded to live an authentic life that set him free. Since then he’s explored the path of self-discovery and met amazing people like Lucas Matiello (past guest) that has helped him find his voice, vision, and his way.
