Let's talk about that in this episode.

Majority of adults are probably having some struggles winning in the game of adulthood. Looking back on our childhood days, we were fearless and creative. How did we end up being a person who would listen more to others that actually listening deliberately to ourselves? I tried to list down some simple learnings I got from my 11 year old cousin and how those insights would be helpful to make our adulthood a little better. Learn more in this episode!

A little clarification on why is it okay to do the bare minimum, hmmm— I personally think that showing up or starting to do something is already an achievement. Once you have already build a habit, eventually you don’t waste to waste your time anymore and you’d decide to do better in handling your resources like your time. | What is mindfulness?

I've been called by different names (especially in grade school) because of my color or how big my eyes are. For a child, we thought this could only be a source of entertainment or fun. We ignore it 'cause it may be natural for kids to tease each other and we grow up normalizing these actions. Partly, it can be true that kids may have said things unintentionally but the scars that it gave us could last for years and worst, it affects the way how we see our identity as a person. Believing that those names our former classmates used to call us are who we are. In this episode, we bring back those memories and talk about how simple teasing impacted us as adults. I brought my former coworkers  and now my dearly friends (Ayie and Bianca) to join me in this episode to share their thoughts and experiences! Enjoy this episode!

Getting personal here, lol! I am finally unveiling my-not-so-special life story to cap my podcast anniversary week. I grew up in a broken family which left a deep scar that I had to deal for 27 years! There was a scenario during my childhood that affected on how I handled relationships, I had difficulty trusting opposite gender and became too independent that it was hard to let other people lead me. Each one of us have our own kind of scars, some are deep and some aren't but it affects our lives somehow. It would take time to completely heal and despite of not wanting to remember the pain of those scars, it would always play a huge role of what we are now.

It's Friday, lol! Got the chance to continue book notes! Hooray! In this episode, I'll be talking more on what I've picked up from CEO Joel Manby about how he handled leadership. It's only the chapter 3 of the book but it has been already insightful. I'm excited to explore more the other episodes and I wonder it would affect my outlook on being a good leader!
