About this episode

The episode discusses the experiences of growing up in East Asian families, focusing on parental pressure and generational differences.

Happyyyyyy new year! The first episode of 2026! I chatted with my friend Sophy about growing up in East Asian families , the pressure from parents to follow a traditional path, and how we both "rebelled". We reflected on the shift in our parent-child relationships and the generational differences in expectations and communication.
