Unchecked

It's been way too long everyone! Em & Rosa catch up on what's new since our hiatus, and our intentions for 2024.

In today's episode, we discuss what it's like to travel solo, how our experiences have nourished our personal growth, and what it means to take a trip alone as a female. We also share tips on how we budget our travel expenses, share our favorite travel anecdotes, and end with gratitude for all the memories we've created.

Today's episode focuses on how we've gained social and physical self-awareness throughout the years. Rosa talks about navigating social situations with Asperger's and how she might have unintentionally burned bridges along the way. Em reflects on mindful communication and when is the appropriate time to give advice versus leaning in and being an active listener. We also talk about navigating personal relationships and the downside of overthinking.

Happy 2023 folks! We start off the first episode of the year with some one-word resolutions, new year traditions, and our future plans. 

Rosa and Em reflect on what it's like to be part of large community events such as the World Cup, huge concerts of 10K+ spectators, opera house performances, among others. We talk about our favorite experiences, the people we've met, what it's like to live in the moment, and what we look forward to for next year. Moral of the story: Find a tall partner in your life to be your goal post (you'll get it when you listen in☺).

We’re back (again)! After a pretty long hiatus, we’re sharing with you all what we’ve been up to these past few months - new job changes, dog mom life, epiphanies, marathon training, inner-child healing, and so much more. We also talk about what it’s like to settle into our early 30s (eep!). Tune in and catch up with us!

As Em is about turn a new decade (!!), her and Rosa reflect on the concept of aging and how that affects desirability, job attainment, and societal expectations. We talk about motherhood, fear of “appearing old” to others, and marriage as an institution.   

This episode was recorded back in Spring 2022. Please note that we are addressing these pressures as cisgender women.

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." How would this sound in any other language?

In this episode, Em & Rosa talk about language elitism and language hallucinations. How does an accent change the way people perceive you? Why can people even project an accent on you just because of how you look? 

We discuss our own journeys with our various languages and how it was not always a source of pride. We also try to find ways to figure out how to teach Cantonese to Em's future children.

Tune in to hear our perspectives in this episode dedicated to elitism and language!

“It’s always good to live in the present. Don’t worry about the future because it’s coming anyway. If you worry about the future, you are going to live your future twice.”  

Em & Rosa talk about navigating life changes, perfectionism as it ties to anxiety, goals, and the idea of the “curated lifestyle.”

On this episode we talk about our fashion hits and misses. Rosa and Em analyze how our fashion sense has evolved and become more conscious over the years.
