I've always wondered if bullying makes us resilient. I'm sure many of us have experienced a person or incident that has scared us, but also it made us stronger. I'm curious if that is the only way to build resilience? 

This week together with Racheal Kwacz, a child and family development specialist, we talked about how our childhood experience can alter our perceptions today and the power of having a safe space that will empower us to take on the world! 

The moment we think our communication is at its best, we lose! Communication is a never-ending learning process, and no matter how old we are, every human being deserves our best attention. 

I met Racheal Kwacz, a child and family development specialist on a social media platform, and was motivated by her energy and passion for communicating effectively. In this episode, we talked about how the prehistoric mentality of "I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice" has hurt many relationships from growing and the crucial process of listening. 

There is a tonne of "how to make your relationship work" books and podcasts out there. But nothing will ever work if we are not intentional about it. 

A continuation from the previous episode, the art of biting our tongue is such a meticulous skill that requires years to master. The first part of it is to hold back what we want to say when we're drowning in our anger.

In this conversation with my wife, we got personal and shared our journey on the battles we had and how we learn to fight fair as we build this relationship.  

Is it even normal for couples to fight? Shouldn't it be butterflies in the tummy and constant smiles and laughter? Is it a sign to call it quits when there are constant quarrels? Oh, so many questions!

Ahh... The famous question that most of us have asked.  We've seen endless memes of individuals who are sweating when this tricky question pops up. For any relationship to work, how well do we need to know each other? Is there a depth-of-love meter that has to be purchased? You've heard me talking about her or quoting her, and finally, CAROLINE IS ON THE PODCAST! In this episode, we talked about why does she frequently asks me about this rocket science equation. 

It is so easy to admire people who are at the top of their industry. We hardly want to dive into their life stories to discover and learn crucial moments that make or break them. It is never easy to run the business of your dreams. Kevin Tan is a barber, musician, pomade connoisseur, and an all-time fun guy to hang out and chill! The moment he left his 'sifu" Lex Low, it was a brand new world. What caught my attention is his discipline and craft that makes you stop and wonder in amazement, "we could do that?" 

Have you ever entered an elevator and got smacked in your face with a strong scent? Or have you got so nervous on a first date that you end up using too many scents or not at all? I believe it is important to smell good, not just for others but for your well-being. In this episode with Adrian Cheong, we address the importance of choosing the right scent and discovered how it makes you remember better than sight or hearing. 

It is so easy to admire people who are at the top of their industry, but we hardly want to dive into their life stories to discover and learn crucial moments that make or break them. But there’s a twist that I’ve discovered about Adrian Cheong. More than just a dreamer but being an opportunist brought him to a focused position, and he created a product that many are carrying in their pockets today. How did he do it? Research! 

"I'm sorry, it won't happen again..." 

To part with one of our most precious commodities: TRUST. 

Seeing that transaction of vulnerability not upheld and tainted in the most sacred covenant between a couple, how can someone ever forgive?

In this episode, Keith Tay and I explore the vow, "for better or for worse." Does that include infidelity? Should I consider a divorce? How should we move forward and see a relationship mended and healed?
