EP 64: Crush or Crushed Stories

A day to celebrate love, it's called! 

We thought we'd down memory lane and share stories about first or most memorable crushes. We weren't expecting such funny responses but I guess we are all at that age where we are comfortable laughing at our naivety and the innocence of our adolescence.

Happy Valentine's to everyone. It's a day to love yourself and your dear ones.

EP 63: The family financial scams

Money and problems led by it can be the sole reason in breaking families apart.

How do you say no to requests for help when it's ingrained in the culture that if you are in a better position, you ought to take care of the rest.

Where do you draw the line and stop feeling guilty for their lack of opportunities or sometimes lack of will?

Dating wise, Mina and Meri are completely opposite. The differences are pretty clear as we tell our dating stories and trust me, Meri has some interesting ones in the bag for us.

EP 59: If you were a...

After a couple of emotionally charged episodes, we thought we should lighten up the mood a little bit. After all, life is not always heavy.

We had fun answering these silly questions and although our answers had borderline narcissistic vibes, the journey to come up with them was definitely a reflective one.

These answers may not truly describe us but it's how we see or would like to see ourselves and that's our version of the truth.

EP 57: DEAR...

Good or Bad, every person that has been in your life has probably taught you a lesson.

For this episode, we wrote letters to three people that have had a significant impact on our lives.

Without them, we would have been very different people and would have made very different choices in life.

We hope you also think about and thank the ones that made you who you are.

EP 55: Cultural values; what will we pass down?

Being raised in two different cultures comes with its own set of identity problems and one of the main one is the clash in personality between you and the culture you are supposed to BELONG to.

We learn cultural values that become habits and are rooted so deep that we sometimes barely question them.

Developing your personal values and then unlearning what doesn't align with what you have absorbed growing up, is a very heavy emotional journey.

It is not all negative, so we asked what you would or wouldn't pass down to your children.

In this two part episode, first we talk about the values YOU WILL PASS DOWN.
