We all know that things rarely go as planned. But how do you deal with changes that happen unexpectedly, or even when you decide that the road you're on is no longer for you? Besides internally coming to terms with your own change of heart, or maybe realizing that the thing you were pursuing is a mistake, there are many other forces at play - outside opinions, expectations, disappointments, & more. All in all, in can be incredibly overwhelming. In this episode, Minji sits down with her friend Janet Wang, a fellow podcaster from the amazing Asian Boss Girl Podcast, to talk about navigating the twists, turns, hard stops, & false starts that inevitably happen in all of our lives. With Janet's unique career path and evolving sense of self built through different moves and relationships, she shares her insights on how to navigate our turbulence with thoughtfulness and acceptance. Together they share their respective lessons and advice from learning how to truly accept that no one can walk your road except for you, AND that you can connect your wayward dots in a way that's real and fulfilling.

Don’t miss Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin!
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
