Which of our New Year goals have been checked off? Are there any areas of our lives that we want to work on throughout the rest of the year?We hope that you can take this time to also intentionally check in with yourself, and share one of your personal goals with us in the comments! **Note to listeners: We had some sound issues in this episode, so you may notice some sections are more muffled than usual.

The sun's finally out & we are officially in the season of summer! Instead of letting this season pass me by, like the previous years, I've been proactive on making this summer memorable. Today, I thought it would be fun to talk about my summer essentials.

We had the amazing opportunity to watch “Joy Ride” at South by Southwest and attend the premiere in LA. Both times the movie had us laughing the entire time, but also tearing up at the underlying story of identity and female friendships. Joy Ride is the first of its kind – a film where Asian women get to be raunchy, funny, and imperfect on the big screen. It is an honor to have Sherry Cola (aka Lolo in Joy Ride) join us on the podcast today. She’s a stand up comedian and actress with such a magnetic energy and infectious laughter. Sherry shares what it was like to grow up as a fish out of water, and how special it felt to make this movie.Joy Ride is in theaters July 7, 2023!__________________________________________Hosts: Melody Cheng, Janet Wang, Helen WuContributing Editor: Haemee KangEditor: Michelle Hsieh__________________________________________P A R T N E R S• ZocDoc: Download the ZocDoc app for FREE at ZocDoc.com/ABG• Issuu: Sign up for FREE or get 50% off a premium account with code ASIANBOSSGIRL at issuu.com/podcast• Open Studio: Get 30 days free at withopen.com/ABG• Pampers: For trusted protection, trust Pampers, the #1 pediatrician recommended brand.• Stitch Fix: Get 25% off your purchase at stitchfix.com/ABG__________________________________________C O N N E C T W I T H U S• Subscribe and Follow us @asianbossgirl on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Amazon Music/YouTube/Instagram/Twitter/Facebook• Listener Survey: Let us know your thoughts on the podcast here• Shoutouts: Give a shoutout on the podcast here• Email: hello@asianbossgirl.com__________________________________________S U P P O R T U S• Merch: asianbossgirl.myshopify.com• Donate: anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/support• More about us at asianbossgirl.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, we are going to talk about dining out and social etiquettes when going out. I'll also be joined by a close friend & social butterfly, Tim Hwang! Whether we like it or not, there are certain behaviors and etiquettes you might personally follow AND perhaps check to see if your fellow friends or potential date follow as well. From situations like if a restaurant gets your food wrong, your friends expect you to split a large meal when you only got a drink, to seeing that your date tips below average… we're going to chat through all this in today's episode!__________________________________________Host: Melody ChengEditor: Victoria Cheng__________________________________________P A R T N E R S• Pampers: For trusted protection, trust Pampers, the #1 pediatrician recommended brand.__________________________________________C O N N E C T W I T H U S• Subscribe and Follow us @asianbossgirl on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Amazon Music/YouTube/Instagram/Twitter/Facebook• Listener Survey: Let us know your thoughts on the podcast here• Shoutouts: Give a shoutout on the podcast here• Email: hello@asianbossgirl.com__________________________________________S U P P O R T U S• Merch: asianbossgirl.myshopify.com• Donate: anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/support• More about us at asianbossgirl.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Our Significant Others are back with us on the couch (listen here if you missed Part 1!), this time for a little competition to see who knows their partner best. First we play the Newlywed Game, and then we get serious with some questions… about the FUTURE. For those still in the dating stage, what does the timeline for marriage look like? What values are important in the early years of a relationship? And what would we title the current chapter of our relationship? __________________________________________Hosts: Melody Cheng, Janet Wang, Helen WuContributing Editor: Haemee KangEditor: Michelle Hsieh__________________________________________C O N N E C T W I T H U S• Subscribe and Follow us @asianbossgirl on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Amazon Music/YouTube/Instagram/Twitter/Facebook• Listener Survey: Let us know your thoughts on the podcast here• Shoutouts: Give a shoutout on the podcast here• Email: hello@asianbossgirl.com__________________________________________S U P P O R T U S• Merch: asianbossgirl.myshopify.com• Donate: anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/support• More about us at asianbossgirl.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever wondered how your parents raised you versus how you would raise your own children? My mom would tell me these stories about how we were weaned off diapers by the age of 1, that talk about SIDS and safe co-sleeping was not a popular topic of conversation, that we were spanked as a form of discipline, and organic foods? Who needs that! On this episode, I bring my mom, Momma Wu, on to talk about the differences between parenting as an immigrant mother in the 1990s and parenting as a second-generation Asian American, now, in the 21st century.If you resonated with this episode, share in the comments of AsianBossGirl’s latest Instagram post, linked here.I hope you enjoy!#SpillTheBabyTea__________________________________________Host: Helen WuEditor: Victoria Cheng__________________________________________C O N N E C T W I T H U S• Subscribe and Follow us @asianbossgirl on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Amazon Music/YouTube/Instagram/Twitter/Facebook• Listener Survey: Let us know your thoughts on the podcast here• Shoutouts: Give a shoutout on the podcast here• Email: hello@asianbossgirl.com__________________________________________S U P P O R T U S• Merch: asianbossgirl.myshopify.com• Donate: anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/support• More about us at asianbossgirl.com Learn more about your ad choices.
