  • Ep. 7 - From Corporate Marketing Lead to Full-Time Artist

    In this episode, I sit down with Inha Arceo, who was on the fast track in the corporate world, working for top FMCG and beauty brands like L’Oréal. But despite her success, she felt a pull toward something different - creating art during COVID while working full time in corporate, to now doing that full-time!


    • Pivotal moments and her realisations during her transition
    • The reality and emotional highs and lows of pursuing a creative career
    • 💡 What it really takes to leave stability behind and bet on yourself

    If you're navigating what success means more than just climbing the corporate ladder—this episode is for you.

  • Ep. 6 - Leaving a Six-Figure Job To Become a Digital Nomad

    Join me as I interview my ex-teammate, Viv Tan, who left her well-paid, impressive Marketing career in Sydney (having worked at Uber, Klook, Airtasker) to pursue building her own business and travelling while doing it as a full-time digital nomad.


    In this episode, we talk about the process she went through as she ultimately decided to leave her comfy 6-figure salary behind, and start anew. We talk about mindset shifts, pivotal moments, and how she manages life now as a full-time entrepreneur while traveling around.


    She now splits her time between travelling in Asia, Europe, while frequently visiting her family based in Malaysia.

  • Ep. 5 - How to Know What You Really Value in Life

    If you keep hearing.. "know your values are and live by them" but you absolutely no clue how to figure out what your TRUE values -- this is for you.

    In this episode, I guide you through identifying your core values and give guide questions on how to figure them out, beyond just picking a bunch of beautifully sounding words like freedom and authenticity!


    I also have real examples from myself and my partner.

    You can get a copy of the list of values here from James Clear, as mentioned in the episode.

  • What It’s Like to Love Your Job: Restaurateur Edition

    What does it feel like to love your job? Is it really possible to wake up and love what you do?


    I don't know about you, but owning a restaurant or a cafe has always been one of those aspirational things that I have daydreamed about - being a foodie myself!


    Today, we have Kenneth Rodrigueza with us, the guy behind Donut Papi, Tita, and House of Papi—some of Sydney's favorite spots. These cafe/restaurants revolve around a fresh and fun take on Filipino dishes, along with their quirky and funky branding and marketing!


    Check them out here:

  • Ep. 3 - Moving Abroad in Your 20's

    In today's episode, we explore a topic maybe most of us in our late 20s or early 30's have considered-moving abroad.


    I answer this through the following questions asked by some of you:

    1. Decision-making process & how to know you're ready

    • From an emotional, more personal standpoint (Growth, Opportunities, Alignment)
    • From a more practical standpoint, including factors to plan for and consider (finances, culture, language, climate, etc)

      • 2. Insights and tips for BEFORE you move

      3. Top tips for finding friends, communities, and dealing with homesickness

    • Ep. 2 - Planning For a Sabbatical - Taking a Year Off Work
      In today's episode, I invited a good friend of mine, Yvana Wong - who has successfully executed a full-year sabbatical after deciding to leave her prestigious career in her hometown, the Philippines. She now resides and works in Hamburg, Germany.
      We dive into what preparations she made, her decision-making process, and the internal struggles she faced before deciding it was time to finally do it.
      If you've been thinking of taking a break yourself to maybe travel the world, or simply rest and do nothing - we hope this episode gives you insights!
      This conversation is the first part of a two-part series. In Part 2, we will be exploring what actually happens when you're actually on sabbatical, the adventures and options Yvana did herself (from teaching English in Spain to workaways!), and her biggest mindset shifts during her sabbatical. Connect with Yvana on LinkedIn.
