EPISODE 65: It’s a strange thing for someone who’s worked for Ford, Tesla, and Rivian to tell you they’re unqualified to be on a pod. But that’s exactly what Eugene Kim said to me when I asked him to share his story. Truth be told, his biggest transition hasn’t been anything career related—it’s been a transition of mindset. And that journey can be much more powerful than any resume stat can boast. We chat about unemployment during the pandemic, going away parties, double spaces, seizing opportunity, burnout culture, finding happiness, and what it was really like working for the Musk himself.

EPISODE 64: There’s a lot that we process as kids that can end up affecting us during the decades that follow. Christina’s inquisitive nature, despite becoming a stranger amongst peers and circumventing countless trials by fire, have instilled growth and an irreplaceable discipline that’s powered her career toward clinical psychology. We discuss foregoing social media entirely to seek internal validation, how trauma can manifest itself as physical pain, and the “tyranny of the shoulds”. In other news, Chris gets into his editing feels, I check to see how my personality lines up with my Chinese zodiac, and Christina gives us insight to her secret alter ego.

EPISODE 63: This week the Jedi returns over drinks! We hit the Mos Eisley cantina for adult beverages and chat about life since his first pod, the Star Wars franchise, Fall Guys, National Bird Day, earnest two-way communication amongst family and friends, and the importance of finding your own space to reset your mental health. We explore why we are all still friends after twenty years, DDR, and discuss which Star Wars vehicle we'd daily drive.

EPISODE 61: Just like I said a few episodes ago, there isn’t a rule book to life - what you need, what you achieve, and what you deem as your limit, is all up to you. Phil Lee has been a dreamer all his life and this freedom of mind has allow him to dip his hands into several avenues - photography, opening a nail salon, a restaurant, and even starting a renowned drift org called ClubFR that has introduced so many people to the sport for the last 18 years. We chat about growing up as a latch key kid, the WHOOP, the Power Glove, kicking it old school, and our responsibility to mentor the next generation.

EPISODE 60: If you like cool cars, chances are you’ve come across a ton of Jeremy Cliff’s work. But despite being one of the most sought after photographers in the game, life behind the lens wasn’t always part of the plan, let alone doing so as a solo entrepreneur. We chat about the courage to put yourself in the public eye, the support system behind the magic, the value of free work, our short list of cars, our strange identities as sudsy drinks, and the real story behind how his creative journey began.

EPISODE 59: It might sound like a strange thing to need a life coach. But simply put, although each of us are born, there isn’t a rulebook to help us make sense of the world at large, or the one inside our own head. What began as a simple repost of Melorie’s resonant words, soon transformed into a much deeper conversation about how she’s resolved her own traumas and how she’s doing just that for countless others. Like our previous guest Charlie White, Melorie has shifted from conventional teaching to making you the subject—a holistic examination and discovery of your true self and power. We chat about Easter Monday, living with a rapper, connecting with our culture, and in a refreshing twist, Melorie unexpectedly flips the pod onto us to show us what she does best.

EPISODE 58: As we’ve all found out, life is rarely a straight and narrow path, but despite that ubiquitous revelation, we still manage to beat ourselves up when things don’t go according to plan. Charlie White has dedicated his post-teaching career to re-write the way we approach our unpredictable lives—he uses outdoor adventure as nature’s great equalizer to help shift our mindsets and help us all realize our true potential as human beings. We chat about mindfulness, people claiming to be “OCD”, the power of the outdoors, the value of coaching to defeat self-doubt, and how bad days are all part of the process.

EPISODE 56: Our one year anniversary celebration continues this week—Chris takes the reigns of the pod to turn the mic on me for a familiar year-to-date check in. We chat about Chris’s COVID-19 vaccination, my recent trip to Pennsylvania, the ugliest Yeezy’s of all time, NFTs, the effect of preparation and mindset on your own potential. Enjoy the episode and thanks once again for tuning in. It’s amazing to see that our words are encouraging so many people to find their voices, get attuned with their true selves, and turn that awareness into better self care. ————————— 🔊 LINK IN BIO to subscribe + listen on @spotify and @applepodcasts 🔊 💡 Have a perfect guest, topic, or idea for the show?

EPISODE 55: It’s still a bit surreal to us, but we’ve been podding for an entire YEAR. Thanks to everyone for your continued support and we are so happy that our humble show has resonated with so many people. We decided it’d only be right to commemorate the anniversary by catching up with Chris, the co-host of the show, for a year-to-date check in. We chat about my makeshift mobile mic setup, revisit Chris’s FOMO, his photography journey thus far, the effect of COVID-19 on his outlook and aspirations, Clubhouse, and how his mindset has evolved through his continued pursuit of learning. ————————— 🔊 LINK IN BIO to subscribe + listen on @spotify and @applepodcasts 🔊 💡 Have a perfect guest, topic, or idea for the show?

EPISODE 54: More often than not, human beings are like icebergs—there is so much that we can’t see beneath our public perceptions. Jenny Pham has been faced with more adversity than most will ever experience in their life—emotional, physical, and sexual abuse—but through several forms of therapy, she’s emerged powerfully reborn. And she’s looking to do the same thing for her beloved Argyle community. We chat about her seemingly endless entrepreneurial drive, reminisce about Empire Liquors, reflect on the power of community and self-empowerment, and what she’d leave as a verbal time capsule for her future self.

EPISODE 53: Change often requires a catalyst and Lakhi left behind a stable career in nursing career to pursue a passion for kickstarting Asian mainstream representation.

We chat about growing up overseas in a multicultural household, the Asian American backlash during COVID, the cumulative effect of learning, the hair part debate, and Chris and I have a little side discussion about radiators while Lakhi switches locations.
