Some healthy habits are harder to adopt than others - eating your veggies, exercising regularly, maintaining a consistent sleep routine - these may all take some convincing and effort. But what if I told you that some pleasurable activities, like having sex regularly, is also critical to your health?

Here with me to talk about sex for health is Anna Lee, Cofounder of Lioness, the women-led sexual health startup that built the world's first and only smart vibrator and app that lets you see & improve your orgasms. Are you curious about how long the average female masturbation session is? Or the average amount of times a woman masturbates in a week? Interested in tips for achieving orgasm with and without a partner? Want to know popular ways women use vibrators during sex with a partner? We answer all these questions, and more. Anna was also a guest on the AsianBossGirl podcast last year - you can check out Episode 144: Let’s Talk Orgasms with Lioness Co-founder Anna Lee, to learn more about her very unique story and all the interesting work she and her company are doing in sexual health.

Have you ever heard of “energy healing”, “Reiki”, or phrases like “balancing your chakras”? As someone who started my interest in wellness rooted more in traditional Western concepts of nutrition and health, energy healing is something I might have rolled my eyes at a decade ago. But since that time, I have been more curious about this modality of wellness, of healing. If you’re in the same boat as me – curious about this modality, but a little skeptical – listen to this episode where I share about my first energy healing experience (live audio from the session included!). Have you ever had an energy healing session? Or are you interested in trying it? Let me know in the comments!

Those of you who have listened to some of our earlier episodes at ABG know that I have switched careers many times. I started out at one of the Big 4s working in global transfer pricing, then in social enterprise, before switching to strategy in advertising, and finally landing in UX design before going full time on ABG. However, between my stint in Advertising and my time in UX design, I actually spent about half a year in Chinese Medicine School. If you’re curious about how and why I did this, what the experience was like, and what I learned, listen in!

Plant-based or plant-forward eating has been lauded as a healthy lifestyle habit for years now.

If you’re a meat-eater who is plant curious, this episode is for you! What exactly is a plant-based/forward way of eating? How do you start the transition? Where do you get your protein? How do you feel full?

I’m also here to share how a plant-based diet has affected my lifestyle: How do I eat out with non-plant-based/forward company? What about dates? Or my family (i.e. why might my Asian parents be resistant to this eating style)? Listen to this episode to find out!

AsianBossGirl is turning 5 years old! To celebrate, we are hosting a Happy Hour event in Los Angeles on September 16th. RSVP at our Eventbrite link here! Cocktails, mocktails, and light bites will be provided. Spots are limited, so sign up soon!

Hi, it’s Janet! Most of you know that I’m an avid yogi, meditator, plant-based eater and all-around wellness enthusiast. As a 2nd generation Asian American woman, I often find myself experimenting with Western health trends against the context of the Eastern philosophies I was raised with. I’ve shared parts of my wellness journey in various ABG episodes, but there are pieces I have yet to reveal. Listen to this episode for a thorough recount of my journey to wellness (so far). I explore what it means to live well and talk about periods in my life when I felt unwell and how I sought to feel better.

My goal with this show is not to provide formal medical or health advice - I am not licensed to do that. Nor am I trying to push any one type of diet, workout, spiritual practice, etc. I am merely a youngish middle-aged person who is trying to live my life well, and in doing so, like to expose myself to lots of different practices and perspectives which I want to share with you in the hopes that it enlivens your own personal journey to living well.

If you enjoyed this episode, I’d love it if you leave a comment in our IG post with one thing you’re doing for your wellness and which of the 6 dimensions it addresses (not sure what the 6 dimensions are? You’ll have to listen to the episode to find out!)
