Get Together with Maggie and Alexa

One of Alexa’s BFFs Kat joins us on the pod for a very apt episode about… BFFs!!!! We talk about all things friendship– our experiences, how we maintain them, how we choose the people we keep close, and its impact on our lives and who we are. It was so great to have Kat’s insights for this episode as she was able to share such wise and thoughtful insights (not to mention her extremely calming voice)!!! Hope to have a conversation with her again soon.  We’re all friends here at The Get Together! Hopefully the good kind. :) Follow us on insta @thegettogetherpodcast

(Very belated) MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR, OUR BELOVED FRIENDS!!!! Take a break from the rather intense news that’s been on lately and let’s reminisce on the wonderful holiday season and year that has been! 2021 was a year of trials, triumphs, firsts, and falls for many of us, but all of it is worth celebrating in the end. You guys have been such a big part of our year and we can’t thank you, however few, enough for continually listening to our banter whenever we upload. We love being able to get together and touch base whenever life gets a little overwhelming! We hope your holiday season has been full of love and blessings, and that 2022 is full of growth, health, and good times. Lots of love!  Follow us on insta @thegettogetherpodcast

KPOP! The only thing Alexa is passionate about! This week, we are diving into one branch of The Korean Wave- KPOP! Mikee, Maggie’s brother, joins us in this episode to talk about biases, our favorite parts of being K-Pop stans, and Permission to Dance LA. K-Pop makes us happy and we want to share this happiness with you guys too <3 BORAHAE

ANOTHER AWESOME GUEST ON THA PODDDDDD– one of Maggie’s bestest friends in the world, Dani! Together, we talk about all of our life plans, or the lack thereof. Anyone else feel this pressure to have it all figured out growing up? Anyone else find this pressure unnecessarily heavy??? While it is important to be decisive and responsible, we’ve come to a consensus that we all owe ourselves a little bit of leeway when it comes to making decisions for our future. We’ve been taught that we need to succumb to some sort of “blueprint” to building a successful life. But as we always say, who’s to define what a successful and fulfilled life means to you? Fr*ck the blueprint! Dani brought so many important insights to the conversation and we feel so blessed to have had her on the pod! Hope you all enjoy, too. Follow us on insta @thegettogetherpodcast

OH HOW WE HAVE MISSED YOU GUYS!!!! And each other. Maybe. But wow, super sorry that we have been so M.I.A. for the past 3 (FRICK!!!) weeks! Life was happening and we got a little overwhelmed and GTWMA had to take the backseat for a bit, but we are back to have more conversations and share them with all of you! No hard feelings ok? This is all about having fun and sharing slices of life with our little community. We hope you enjoy this catch up and stick around for the new episodes we have in store. Love you!

HAPPY FREAKIN 10!!!!!! We are so happy and grateful to all those who have been listening for sticking it out through the first 10 episodes. We can’t wait to give you guys more! This week, we talk about HOW WE COPE. There are so many different ways we can respond to all the difficult things life sends our way. Each way lets you work through things a little differently, but all we know for sure is that you will find a way through it. In everything, it’s important to acknowledge your feelings and experience, and do what you can for yourself and with the help of those who love you. Hope you guys enjoy!

A LIGHT ONE! Get to know us a little better this week as we share our hobbies that we love to spend our time doing. This quarantine has really served as a time to hone our individuality and find activities that make us feel more like us! Honestly, it doesn’t matter if you’re a pro or if you can monetize the things that you create. As long as you’re having fun doing it, then it is more than worth your time! If you’re looking for something new to start up, then we have some really good ones for you in this ep. Do something fun today, friend! You deserve it. Follow us on Insta @thegettogetherpodcast

This week we have Maggie’s BFF, Stefi, joining the Get Together for a solid KPOP fan moment and life chat. [If u do not care abt KPOP, juicy stuff starts at 15:40] DIS WEEK AND PRODUCTIVITY PART 2 IS ALL ABOUT HOW WE CHOOSE TO LIVE LIFE! What we choose to make time for in our day matters. Your daily routine should reflect what you value in life and what you truly want to get out of it. The value in your work lies not in what external validations you receive, but in the experience and feelings you are able to gain from your pursuits. Love you all! Follow us on Insta @thegettogetherpodcast

PRODUCTIVITY and BURNOUT have been the buzzwords of the past two years, but what do these mean to us? In this episode, we talk about how we define productivity as a concept and how we apply this to our own lives. As we fulfill our responsibilities in terms of academics, extracurriculars, and work, we aim to strike a balance between our obligations to others and obligations to ourselves. It’s all about setting realistic expectations. We got this! <3 Follow us on Insta @thegettogetherpodcast

WE LOVE BEING FILIPINO! We come from a vibrant country full of life and lovely people. Though, as with all cultures, we have also observed and experienced our fair share of drawbacks. These are things we want to be more mindful of, work toward changing, and hope to see transforming in the future. If you’re an eligible voter, be part of this change and put your vote toward goodness, fairness, and life. We’re all in this together! <3 Follow us on Instagram @thegettogetherpodcast!

Sharing our lives with others on social media comes with its set of ups and downs. In the past couple of years, it has become some sort of necessity in order to keep in touch with the people we love. In this episode, we talk about our relationship with social media, struggles and all, and how we have dealt with and developed a healthier relationship with these platforms. We love social media, and want it to be a healthy and supportive space for all. <3 Follow us on Instagram @thegettogetherpodcast!

WARNING: FEELINGS MAY ARISE! Forgiveness is an insanely touchy topic for some of us, but it’s also super interesting to hear what other people think about it. This week, we share our feelings and experiences with apologies, whether giving them or forgiving them. It can be tough, it’s totally normal for it to be tough, but it can also be something that can teach us so many things about ourselves. We had so much fun talking about this, we hope you enjoy too <3

WE’RE SOOO HAPPY TO WELCOME OUR FIRST GUEST TO THE GET TOGETHER!!! If you’re looking for sewing tips or KPOP fun facts, we’re ur girls. But if you wanna talk adulting…….. *crickets* LOL. LUCKILY, we have an awesome role model in our family, soaring successfully through her first years of REAL adulthood! We talk to our “cousin” Heather about her academic journey, tips for a healthy work-play balance, how she found her calling and what her adult life has been like. We learned a lot from her, so we hope you do too! <3

INTROVERTS AND EXTROVERTS ARE REPRESENTED IN DIS PODCAST!!!!!!!!! Are you introverted or extroverted? Or maybe even both? We know personalities and social skills are one of the many things that have gotten super confusing na throughout this quarantine period, but we hope some of our reflections on this are able to resonate with you. Even if our personalities have transformed over time, we still have ourselves and there’s no harm or rush in getting reacquainted with who we’ve become.
