What happened to the kid who could spend hours drawing, dancing, building, or obsessing over one random thing without thinking about outcomes? In this episode, Linh and Lara look back at the hobbies they had growing up—and what changed once play became something you have to “fit in” between meetings and responsibilities.

They talk about phases, identity, the pressure to be good (or monetize everything), and why being a beginner again can feel both uncomfortable and freeing. It’s a nostalgic, honest, and surprisingly funny conversation about rediscovering curiosity—and remembering that not everything has to be productive to be meaningful.

Getting sick as an adult hits differently—especially when you realize your parents are getting older too. In this episode, Linh and Lara talk about health anxiety, the weird comfort of wanting your mum when you’re ill, and the not-so-fun thoughts that sneak in when roles start to shift. It’s a mix of honest fears, shared laughs, and very real reflections on growing up, letting go of control, and navigating care from both sides.

We don’t start from zero — we start from somewhere.

In this episode, we share our origin stories and talk about the family dynamics that shaped us long before we had words for it. The roles we played, the patterns we learned, and the things we normalized growing up.

We reflect on how our upbringing still shows up in our relationships, boundaries, and sense of self today — and what it takes to consciously unlearn what no longer fits.

An honest conversation about roots, awareness, and choosing who you want to become.
