Today, we’ve brought in Sonalie and Tamsin, two powerhouses in the eco and sustainability scene in Hong Kong to talk about small things you can do today to lessen your contribution to climate change - all it takes is one step, and we’ve got a whole host of little green steps that can get you started.

Who else is guilty of constantly complaining about the dating life in Hong Kong, because I know I sure am. I pity my friends, to be honest, who have to put up with me constantly whining about not meeting eligible men organically, and how the apps are just a cesspool of dirtbags. I had to understand if this was just a perception problem, or if we actually have an issue in Hong Kong when it comes to dating and sex, and there were no two better people than Valentina and Sara to chat to about this. Spoiler alert, I get schooled for my close minded-ness about dating in HK, and leave with some much needed advice. Ready for some sexy talk?

To make all our lives a little easier, we’ve brought in two of the most social people we know, Genna and Sarah from Highlight Asia and Girls of LKF, to give all of us their life hacks on just how you can go about making friends in our city. These girls are the pros, people, so listen up!

From constant promotion of skin lightening treatments to all the weight loss procedures advertised on the MTR, we are constantly surrounded by all kinds of toxic messaging in Hong Kong that makes us feel like nothing we ever do is enough. How can we cut through this and just own our true selves? This topic is incredibly close to our hearts, so in this episode we’re talking to two of our favourite candid and inspiring women, Bertha Chan and Ziggy Makant, who have been using their voice on social media to bring a unique and honest perspective to existing as a person in this city. The good, the bad and the ugly, nothing is off limits in this conversation.

(N.B: this episode contains discussions of some sensitive topics, such as abortion, eating disorders and postpartum depression. Listener discretion is advised).
