Tea isn’t flashy. It doesn’t come sizzling on a skillet or arrive with dramatic garnish. But somehow… it shows up right when we need it. In this episode, I reflect on the quiet, unspoken ways our parents tried to ease our stress—much like steeping a cup of tea without asking if we wanted it. It was never about the drink itself, but about their effort to offer calm, care, and presence.

Even when I didn’t notice it, that cup was made for me.

Join me as I slow down and sit with those moments of appreciation, recognize the gestures I once overlooked, and ask myself: how do I offer comfort now—to others, and to myself?

3 course meal is super fancy but we aren't at a Michelin restaurant, we're under the roof of my parents. Mom & dad always made sure I was well fed and making sure I had all the right things to have energy to go about my day at school or when doing extracurricular activities. Figuratively, they provided me with the things I need to help me be where I am today. Stay tuned in my latest episode full of gratitude and self reflection!

Often times I see my dad pray with food to offer thanks to our ancestors and/or higher power. Today I'm showing thanks to the person that I am today though my unique experiences in life that I have never found anyone been able to relate with aside from a few. I am giving thanks alongside with a friend that you know and love. Please join me on an episode to unpack our gratitude in life!

"Tell me when to stop," is not something that you hear at my dinner table but is what you hear all the time at Olive Garden. Growing up, it was hard to have the right amount of things you need to help nurture your growth. In this episode I sit alone talking about how even though I didn't get the things I wanted, I now can do that since I'm grown up. Additionally, I challenge you the audience to find out what great things came out of restrictions.

No I'm not actually cooking anything for you to judge. The name of this episode is a metaphor for the amount of judgement I've faced as a child. Being criticized in aspects of my life when I know that I'm not perfect but I'm expected to be. Now I end up being my worst critic because I adopted this self judgement and I am accompanied by my sister to talk this through.

Let's maximize our ROI... at a buffet. In this episode I am accompanied by my sister talking about the savings that we saw growing up that our parents have have shown us. Given today's day and age there is something I can learn from my parents. They have shown me that they have gone through so many lengths to save a quick buck and all for the sake of nurturing my sister and I.

Heated exchange are common between child and parent. For me that was no different. Being under the same house with parents can be difficult when you think you're ready for the outside world when in our parents' eyes, you're not. This episode is just me, myself, and I where I tell you a story about my experiences.

Literally am still learning how to cook more Vietnamese food, but figuratively I am trapped in my own thoughts. I want to express that even living on my own that the very thing that I was trying to break away from I'm still doing it to myself. The idea of second guessing where I'm at in life is now a question I ask myself instead of my parents. Sometimes it's hard to not think about these things but join be on a one-on-one session of me going through my thoughts.
