Fri, 20 Dec 2024 - 421 - New Episode of Living Well with Janet: How to Heal from Back-to-Back Breakups
I recently went through a breakup, again. Heartbreak is never easy, and when you're dating with the intention to find your life partner while trying to beat a biological clock, it involves a new level of hurt, grief, and sense of urgency to move on. How do we know when we've healed? How do we approach asking for support from friends and family? How can we focus on hope when all we want to do is be angry and negative? I talk about all of this and more in this episode.

Wed, 18 Dec 2024 - 420 - Episode 302: Do You Need a Prenup? & Other Legal Considerations Before Marriage
When you’re planning to get married, the legal side of the process can be potentially intimidating and uncomfortable to discuss with your partner. After all, you never want to go into a marriage thinking that it’s going to end. At the same time, it’s important to know what happens on the legal side when you sign those papers, to read the fine print just like you would for any other contract. So today, we’ve brought on family law attorney Alex Payne to answer as many questions as we could think of, so you can get a jump start on your research. Is it best to keep your finances joint or separate? How does social media play a role in divorce proceedings? And the big question everyone always wonders - should you get a prenup?? 💗 AsianBossGirl Live - THE BFF TOUR 💗 Calling ABGs & ABBs in the NYC & LA area - we’re hittin’ the road, baby!

Wed, 27 Nov 2024 - 415 - Episode 299: Layoffs Are an Opportunity to Grow, Not a Failure - with Chloe Shih
Tech companies are a notoriously male-dominated space, but today’s guest has become a voice for Asian American women in that industry. Chloe Shih began her creator journey offering resources and advice to others working in tech. Since then, she’s been honing her personal aesthetic with great success. Earlier this year, she went viral after sharing about her layoff from Discord. Now “starting over” in her 30s and walking the fine line between tech and creative work, Chloe has inspired us with her intentional approach to content creation. We’re so excited to chat with Chloe about balancing dual careers, her new podcast JOMO, and why she chose to cut watermelon in her videos.

Fri, 22 Nov 2024 - 414 - No Dumb Questions with Mel: The Other Side of Moving to NYC - My Loneliness Story
How am I really doing in NYC? Eight months in, and it’s time to get real about life in New York. I’ve shared glimpses of my excitement about the city, but behind the scenes, it’s been… different. I didn’t think moving here would feel this lonely, but leaving behind a tight-knit group of friends and adjusting to new rhythms has been harder than I ever expected. It’s tough to admit, but this might be the loneliest I’ve ever felt. In this episode, I’m opening up about what it’s really been like—navigating big-city life, missing familiar faces, and learning that making new friends as an adult isn’t as easy as it sounds. Sometimes, I find myself wishing for just one effortless conversation with people who know me. Between spending days mostly alone and feeling the weight of vulnerability fatigue, it’s been a rollercoaster. I’m still figuring it out, and I hope sharing this helps anyone else feeling a little out of place to know you’re not alone. So, let’s get into it: the highs, the lows, and the in-between moments of finding myself in NYC. No Dumb Questions with Mel is moving to its own feed!

Wed, 20 Nov 2024 - 413 - Episode 298: Janet’s Dating Again - Advice for Entering Relationships After a Breakup
After going through a significant breakup, it can be difficult to get back into dating. Opening yourself up to new people and experiences might be intimidating, or you might even find that you have new priorities. But if you’re ready to start dating again, it’s always good to reflect on the positives & negatives of your previous relationship to see what you’d like to look for in the next one. Today, Janet is sharing her personal perspective on this topic, as someone who has started dating again after a pretty big breakup, and opening up about a key relationship that defined her last year. She also talks about why she’s given herself permission to take dating at her own pace, and offers some advice to anyone else who may be healing after breakups.

Fri, 15 Nov 2024 - 412 - Spill the Baby Tea with Helen: Breaking Free from Big 4 Burnout - How Content Creation Changed My Life
In this episode of Spill the Baby Tea, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my career journey—from my early days as a valuation manager at Ernst & Young to the big, scary leap into content creation and podcasting. Many of you might be navigating big life or career transitions yourself, or wondering what it's really like to follow a passion outside of the corporate world.

Fri, 18 Oct 2024 - 404 - Living Well with Janet: 9 Things I've Learned at 39
Birthdays are an interesting time to reflect and evaluate, and honestly, it’s been one of the harder years of my life. It was the perfect storm - a cataclysm of many things being upheaved, in transition, unsettled, or in flux. Moreover, I turned 39 this year. It’s the year before I enter a new decade - pretty much midlife - and when we are at this stage of life, there are a lot of life milestones that we are confronted with. In some ways, my life does not look how I thought it would at 39. And having to face that reality while still being kind to myself and willing the confidence and fervor that’s required to make change and keep going has been pretty exhausting. But I want to take this episode as an opportunity to share some of the things I’ve learned over the course of my 39 years, and especially this past year. If you are like me, in your late 30s and on the brink of entering your 40s, maybe some of this will resonate. Or, if you’re younger - in your early 30s or 20s - perhaps some of these learnings can be of benefit or inspiration for you.

Tiff and I go way back—we were roommates at UC San Diego for 3 years and have been close ever since. She knows me better than almost anyone, and we’ve traveled together a few times, but this is our first big international trip! In this episode, we’ll dive into how we’re approaching this trip, from managing everyone’s preferences to keeping things fun and organized. Whether you’re gearing up for your own trip with friends or just love hearing about travel planning, I hope this conversation gives you some helpful tips along the way!

We’re in the final weeks of summer, but because the past few months have been so eventful, we haven’t had a chance to check in with ourselves and each other! In fact, summers in general now just look so different in our 30’s, particularly when friends start to have kids. When we’re part of different “villages” with various priorities and obligations, how do we still have meaningful hangouts with loved ones? From Phil’s 40th Birthday Cruise to Janet’s sister’s baby shower, we share some highlights, things we learned, and how we maintain balance in the midst of these milestone events.

Fri, 13 Sep 2024 - 394 - Spill the Baby Tea with Helen: Choosing the Right Daycare - Tips for Parents Navigating Early Schooling
Today, we’re uncovering the secrets to finding the perfect daycare that will set your little one on the path to success. We’re talking about the must-ask questions, tips for navigating the application process, and how to spot the red flags before it’s too late. Whether you're just starting the search or drowning in options, we’ve got you covered with everything you need to know to make a confident and informed choice. Get ready to feel empowered and excited about this important milestone in your child’s life! And as promised, here are questions I asked each of the schools we visited: What is the daily schedule like? How is naptime handled? Where do they sleep? Can my child bring a blanket/lovey? What is the staff-to-child ratio? How long have the teachers been at the school? What are the qualifications of the caregivers? Do they have early childhood education degrees? What is the expectation for potty training? Are they expected to wipe themselves? What are the policies on sick children? What are the safety protocols? (Check that the facility is licensed by the state and that they have clear safety protocols in place. Look for things like secured entrances and childproofing.) How does discipline typically work? What is the standard communication of how your child is doing? Daily and periodic check-ins? How do I FEEL after this visit? (This was super important for me to jot down! These feelings are easy to forget after visiting so many schools.)

Have you ever wondered if you’re living up to the full potential of your brain power? Today’s guest, Jim Kwik, has dedicated his career to helping people learn better and faster, improve focus, and optimize their memory.

However, he now knows that the brain is only as limited as you think it is; in fact, the mind is limitless, and Jim can show you how to unlock that potential. You’re going to want some pen and paper for this, as Jim shares ways to help your brain age healthily, the importance of taking smaller steps, and why your brain learns best through creation, not consumption.

In this episode of No Dumb Questions, we dive deep into the world of TV writing and what it truly takes to make it in Hollywood. As someone who's always been captivated by the entertainment industry, today’s topic is particularly exciting for me. And to make it even better, we have an extraordinary guest who’s worked on incredible shows like Loot and Superstore—plus, she’s collaborated with comedy royalty like Maya Rudolph! Today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to Vicky Luu —an incredibly talented writer and producer in her own right. This episode feels especially personal because Vicky is not only a powerhouse in Hollywood, but she’s also my partner Ray’s older sister ;) We’re going to explore Vicky’s journey from her early days as a Production Assistant on shows like Family Guy and the 90210 reboot, to her rise as Co-Executive Producer of hit series like Superstore and Loot.

In this episode of Spill the Baby Tea, I'm diving into the wild and sometimes messy world of fully potty training a toddler boy by 2.5 years old.

I'll be sharing all the tips and tricks that helped us get through this milestone. From choosing the right potty gear to figuring out the best timing and techniques, I’ll walk you through what worked for us and what didn’t, so you can find your own path through this milestone. Whether you're in the thick of potty training or just getting ready for it, this episode is here to offer support, encouragement, and a few laughs along the way.

We’re always looking for new ways to prioritize & pursue our mental health, so last month, we visited The Breathing Room in Westwood, Los Angeles (*not sponsored!).

For the first time on ABG, Mel is calling in to the studio to record an episode, all the way from New York! Ever since she moved to the East Coast, it’s been an adjustment for all three of us, not only in our friendships but also in our work. Before, we used to be able to make impromptu plans to hang out, now it takes plane tickets and a lot more planning. Even things like conflict resolution feels more difficult when you’re used to having IRL conversations.

Wed, 24 Jul 2024 - 379 - Episode 281: Growing Up with a Sister Is Like Having a Built-In Best Friend & Worst Enemy
For better or for worse, having a sister is a lifelong friendship that you didn’t choose for yourself. Janet and Helen know just how tumultuous, but also reassuring, growing up with sisters can be. Janet and her younger sister Patty have very different personalities and interests, while Helen and her older sister Anne fought A LOT as kids. But ultimately, we know that the other sister always has our back through the heartbreaks and joys of life. We’re also curious – does having a sister affect how you view or interact with female friendships? Grab your sister (or chosen sisters) and let us know what you think in the comments!
