Perfectly Imperfect with Christine and Regina

Cancelled. How many times have we heard this phrase and been quick to judge without getting the full story? In this politically tense climate, it's easy to get pitted against one another through the media and circulating rumors creating a mob mentality where neither side can see eye to eye. This week, our good friend Jimmy Wong joins us as we dive into cancel culture and the toxic environment that has bred from wanting to stay politically correct to sending death threats. Should we be canceling people and companies? How do you go about having open discussions from opposing views? Listen in!

Catch Jimmy as Ling in Disney's Live Action Mulan opening this weekend, Sept 4th!

We meet, At Last, the women's workwear line that Regina has been working on over the past year! It is a culmination of the hopes and dreams she's always had of being able to inspire confidence in women by helping them realize that everything they ever wanted is already within themselves.

The fashion industry is constantly polluted with images of unrealistic expectations of how women are supposed to look/dress and Regina realized how much of a toll it took on her own self esteem. With that being her why, she wanted to create a line with timeless classics that are long lasting and fit a variety of body types, which included creating a new sizing system!

However, as picturesque as it sounds, the journey wasn't easy. It was filled with doubts, fears, and insecurities that were put on blast as she tried to navigate becoming a first time entrepreneur. From taking clothing design classes to traveling to China to learn about fabric and production factories, to dealing with a pandemic, to finding her purpose, what were the mistakes she made? What would she have done differently? Why fashion?

Listen to this week's episode to learn more about the company she is trying to build, her purpose, and the efforts they are currently putting to helping first line responders during this pandemic!

It's easy for us to name all the opportunities that have worked out perfectly in our lives, but have you ever taken a moment to stop to think about all the things that didn't work out? This week, we dive deep and think back about all the opportunities we had once hoped and dreamed about, that never came to fruition. At the time, these events were some of our biggest disappointments, but to pivot and see how our lives are better for it just reminds us that everything happens for a reason.

If only love was always mutual. More often than not, we find ourselves (or the other person), being in the friend-zone, friends with benefits, the only one wanting to say I love you, or the only one who wants to get married and constantly waiting around for your partner to be ready...

How do we overcome our fear of getting hurt or rejected while allowing ourselves to be vulnerable? How can we admit what we really want in a romantic relationship? When do you keep doing what is “comfortable” vs. stepping out and asking for what you truly want because you’re really not that happy?

Let's chat <3

During a time when we are constantly surrounded by social media and watching everyone's highlight reels, it’s hard not to feel FOMO or jealousy for what everyone else is doing. Feelings of envy can be all consuming which can also lead to feelings of inadequacy and depression. So how do we combat this jealousy? Are we truly jealous of what others have or is there a deeper message behind this emotion?

How do we use these triggers as opportunities for self growth and to find maturity to be genuinely happy for others while not letting their successes define us?

In light of the current events that have been happening all around the world right now with Black Lives Matter, we wanted to share some self reflections, with our raw and honest truths. Like many of you, we’ve been listening, educating ourselves, and reflecting about the deeply rooted injustices towards our black brothers and sisters.

We are learning how to do our part to be strong allies and to fight for anti-racism; from checking our own privileges, to sharing how we’ve talked to our parents about the subject matter, to really diving in to what the model minority myth means for us, we are educating ourselves on how we can better bridge that gap from seeing each other as separate to fighting together for one truth. Equality for all.

Our incredible friend, Shelly Kim, joins us this week to talk about her journey of how she turned her hobby and love of hand lettering into a full blown business! She shares what she's learned about taking that first step to start your own dream business. As bosses of all our own businesses, we talk about the feelings of uncertainty, the mental fortitude you battle within yourself, the unexpected work that comes from running your own business, and tips that we've learned and are still learning.

Wanting to make a living from doing what you love is a beautiful dream. But it takes so much hard work, perseverance, finding inspiration when you have none, and learning to adjust from things that didn't go your way.
