Our pilot episode! This episode was recorded in late January and we were holding off on actually launching this mini project.

In this episode, we first discuss our zodiac signs according to the Lunar calendar. She's sign is a pig, and Mau's sign is a dog. We don't know about you, but for us, our zodiac signs definitely reflects us. What's your sign?

In the latter part of the episode, we reflect on a personal learning that has changed our mindset and outlook on life as Filipino-Canadian millennials in Canada. The concept of effective communication is something that we believe to be lacking in the Filipino culture as there is a tendency for Filipinos to downplay serious topics or avoid them at all.

Through the years, She has learned the importance of being a good listener to those around her. Although she can not relate to all of her peer's experiences, having an open ear helps her understand and sympathize with them. On the other hand, Mau has learned the importance of speaking up for oneself in the workplace to express concerns and set boundaries to foster respect.

We hope you enjoyed listening to our conversation, and a question we have for you to reflect on is, "what is something that took you a long time to learn or understand?" Let us know in the comments!

Happy listening!
