The TBD Podcast

Introducing a new monthly segment to the TBD Podcast, where my friends and I answer questions for and from junior designers! Make sure to follow my fellow co-hosts Zain (@zainkho), Charmaine (@CharmaineWang) and Celine (@ceIiners) on Twitter and check out their work :) 

From Clubhouse to Dispo, invite-only apps are popping up everywhere! Using FOMO to their advantage, these apps might have a smart marketing strategy, but is it ethical? In today's episode, we discuss the effects of FOMO caused by these invite-only apps and how that's impacting us while our lives are so online right now.

It's 2AM and I thought that was a great a time as any to tell y'all why I decided to delete Instagram. During a time where we are so online (thank you covid), it worth re-evaluating our relationship with social media and the effects it has on our mental well-being. 

Employee referrals have helped me land most of my design internships. However, POC are 35% less likely to get a referral than their white counterparts. It's time for us, specifically senior designers, to diversity our social circles, mentor and vouch for under-represented minorities in tech and help them get their foot in the door. 

Hello! This is the TBD podcast where I talk about things I'm intrigued by but don't have a fully formed opinion on yet. Hopefully, by the end, I come to some sort of conclusion....or not. That's TBD.
