最近西西莉亚和QP更新很慢，这期和大家聊聊最近生活的压力和感悟。QP意识到30+后要主动与生活和解，被工作辜负后可以躺平，以及self-care的重要性 (e.g., always take the aisle seat)。QP发起了30-day self-care challenge，结果一呼百应。希望大家都能在生活中照顾好自己，爱自己！祝大家新的一周愉快！

This is an English episode where QP and Cecilia invited the guest Toast to share each other's experience in navigating the US healthcare system. We compared Toast as an American struggling with the healthcare system with QP and Cecilia's experience as internationals and non-native English speakers living in the US. We shared individual stories across going through surgeries, traffic accident, and panic attacks and how these lived experiences shaped our view in navigating this frustrating healthcare system, either passively, diligently, or in constant Karen mode.

大家好我们又回来啦，这期节目请了嘉宾Toast一起聊了在美国求医看病的一些经历和感慨。我们的嘉宾介绍了他panic attach在急诊室里的无奈；QP分享了他不得不开启Karen Mode来和保险公司理论；Cecilia分享了她初来乍到美国literally hit by a bus的噩梦。Toast和Cecilia迫切希望QP能拯救美国离谱的医疗体系。希望大家健康开心！ Apple Podcast: Vanilla in the US 网易云：流落美帝的傻白甜 Intro/Outro BGM: Dancing On My Own, by Robyn

This is another English episode recorded in June 2022 where Cecilia and QP discussed aerophobia/plane-phobia and hodophobia/transportation-phobia with returning guest, Toast! During the pandemic, Cecilia developed fear of travel, including fear of airplanes, cars and boats. Toast shared his aerophobia, comparing it with Cecilia's fear of airplanes. QP and Cecilia shared their experiences with various support services in the US, from mental health counselors to speech therapists and career coaches and how they differ from their experience growing up in China. QP asked a million dollar question: why are we needing more and more external support? Cultural difference? Services are more available? Getting older? Individual difference?

Have a great week! 希望大家这周开心！
