16: In today's episode, I'm joined by three close friends and family members, all Asian-American women. We have a very open and raw conversation about the increase in violence against Asian-Americans during this pandemic, our experiences with racism, and our own identities. In this vulnerable and at times painful discussion, we touch on: 

- How racism has shaped our own identities, and the untangling of a lifetime of microaggressions and feeling othered 

- How you can show up for your Asian friends right now (as well as what not to do)

- The fetishization of Asian women in terms of historical context and our own experiences that have been bizarre and offensive

- How the “Model Minority” myth was started, how it’s linked to white supremacy, and why it’s damaging for Asian identity

- The intersectionality of gender and race for Asian-Americans

Be sure to snap a screenshot of this episode and share on your Stories so we can continue spreading awareness for the important conversations currently happening around violence against Asian-Americans. Tag me @wtfab so I can reshare and we can continue the convo in our DMs.

14: In this episode, I'm sharing 10 habits, rituals, and things that have been keeping me sane during this pandemic while we've been stuck at home. It's hard to believe we've been doing this stay-at-home thing for a year now. And while getting the vaccine is hopefully just around the corner for all of us, who knows how long it'll be until we get that shot, and when things return back to some kind of normal. In the meantime, try out these 10 habits and rituals—some of them spark joy, and some of them just help me feel less miserable during the panny. 

Give some of these habits a try and let me know what else is sparking joy for you and keeping you sane during this time! Be sure to tag me in your Stories @wtfab when you try some of these habits so I can reshare!
