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.

Christmas can be magical — but it can also be complicated. In this special holiday episode, Linh and Lara talk about what the Christmas season really brings up for them: joy and nostalgia, but also pressure, expectations, guilt, loneliness, and the quiet moments in between.

They reflect on childhood memories, family dynamics, traditions that still feel comforting (and the ones that don’t), and how their relationship with Christmas has changed over the years. From navigating time with family to creating new rituals that actually feel good, this episode is an honest conversation about honoring your needs during the holidays.

Whether you love Christmas, struggle with it, or feel a bit of both — this episode is a reminder that there’s no “right” way to do the holidays. You’re allowed to slow down, set boundaries, and make space for whatever you’re feeling.

Guilt sneaks into our lives in so many subtle ways — from saying no, to resting, to not meeting expectations (our own or everyone else’s). In this episode, Linh and Lara get honest about the different kinds of guilt they carry: guilt for taking breaks, guilt for putting themselves first, guilt for not being “enough,” and even guilt rooted in childhood and family dynamics.

They explore why guilt shows up so quickly, how it’s tied to identity and belonging, and why so many of us feel responsible for things that were never ours to carry. Together, they unpack people-pleasing, overthinking, boundary-setting, and the stories we tell ourselves when we think we’re letting someone down.

This episode is a gentle reminder that guilt is human — but it doesn’t have to run your life.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for simply being who you are, this one’s for you.

Season 2 starts with a confession: this summer did not go the way we planned.

Some things were beautiful, some were weirdly emotional, and some were “this is all too much” moments.

In this episode, we talk about:

* The plot twists we didn’t see coming

* The small moments that changed us

* Why summer can feel both freeing and overwhelming

* What we’re bringing with us into the new season (and what we’re leaving behind)

If your summer wasn’t all sunsets and Aperol — same.

Let’s debrief together. ✨

It’s a wrap on season one! In this final episode, Linh and Lara reflect on the past few months of creating the Full Of It podcast—what it’s taught them, how it’s stretched them, and the unexpected moments of connection along the way. They share their original intentions behind the podcast, what they’ve learned through each conversation, and why they’ve decided to take a summer break. With honesty and love, they talk about the importance of rest, distance, and space to grow—and what might come next after some time to breathe.

What even is fun anymore—and why does it feel so hard to access as an adult? In this episode, Linh and Lara explore their evolving relationship with fun: how they define it now, why it doesn’t come as naturally as it did in childhood, and what actually brings them joy today. They talk about the pressures that make fun feel like a luxury instead of a necessity, the role of choice in creating joyful moments, and what they'd do just for fun if time and money weren’t an issue. It’s a refreshing, honest convo that might just remind you to take life a little less seriously.
