Before ABG, there was ABM: Asian Boss Moms. In today’s episode, we talk about our mothers’ specific journeys to the west. Their stories help define who we are as individuals/daughters/sons and provide the context of how we were raised, our values/morals, and the lessons we were taught. In this episode, we share OUR mothers’ personal immigration stories, and we know these do not represent every immigrants’ journey. There are so many varied experiences we need to capture and share. We encourage you to learn about your personal history and ask your family about their immigration story --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/message Learn more about your ad choices.

Hello, hello! We are BACK with another fun-filled season PACKed with juicy episodes, a few guest speakers near and dear to our hearts (ABMs!) and other topics that we’ve gathered from YOU (our listeners). The three of us have had quite an eventful summer, from promotions, to travel, to welp -- aging. In this episode, we’ll catch you up on what we have been up to and also focus heavily on the non-social media, non-fabricated side of travel. What is it really like to relocate and live in another city/country? From elation to frustration to a love/hate relationship. “Home” genuinely becomes the most loaded, beautiful, and yet pull-at-the-heartstrings word you could ever imagine. The expat experience sounds like a dream, but there’s so much to it that makes it not so much of a fantasy. Join us as we share our experiences with being away from our definition of “home”, in travel. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/message Learn more about your ad choices.

As a podcast focused on the perspective of modern day Asian American women, we thought it would be fitting to dedicate an episode to highlighting the Asian women who have influenced us. We talk about Asian American women of today and also reminisce about those who shaped us growing up - noting that we were drawn to unconventional sources because of the lack of AA representation (Sailor Moon anyone?). We discuss the importance of relatability versus influence, and how the changing media landscape has affected the amount and types of role models available to Asian American women today. Listen in on this meaningful discussion to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage month! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/message Learn more about your ad choices.

Breakups are never easy. They’re confusing, hurtful, lonely, empty, infuriating, and aren’t the same for any two people. No matter how many times you’ve experienced a breakup, it never gets easier. These days, what we see on Instagram and other social media platforms is a euphoric state of life; that everything is perfect. We see couples head over heels for one another, but we know that image is only a glimpse into a moment, candid or not. There will always be some level of tension in a relationship, anything from I’m annoyed that he didn’t text me all day, to something as major as cheating and I have to place my mistrust behind a facade of reassurance. We’ve talked about problem solving in Episode 16. But what happens when you can’t solve those problems any longer? And how do we deal with the [<3] pain? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/message Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

First dates - whether your last one was years ago, months ago, or just last week, everyone has his or her own rules and ways of handling them. Do you prefer to be asked out or would you rather be the one asking? What do you notice and remember about the first meeting? How do you handle the conversation - what are topics to cover and those to avoid? Do you have any rules on getting physical on the first date...kissing...more? Listen in as we share each of our differing perspectives through personal stories - some we look back on fondly and others we would rather forget. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/message Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever taken the time to really think about who you are and how you operate? What are your strengths? Your weaknesses? Choosing a career that is not a fit for your personality is likely to leave you feeling unhappy and apathetic. If you don't know yourself as well as you'd like to, there are a variety of personality assessment tests such as "Myers-Briggs" or "What Color Is Your Parachute?" available to help you identify your personality type. Of course, we wouldn't suggest basing your decision solely on the results of an internet career test. But they can offer useful suggestions you may not have thought of, or confirm the suitability of the job you currently have, or anticipate having. Join us, as we evaluate our personalities with the help of Meyers Briggs and the 16 personalities tests and talk through our careers in finance, tech, and fashion. Let us know if you end up taking these tests, and share with us your results! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/message Learn more about your ad choices.
