Welcome to Back to Sq 1 - a podcast hosted by best friends, Derek and Carmen. Join us as we work through life's biggest questions and explore modern topics through our shared lenses of growing up as second-generation Asian Canadians from the suburbs of Toronto. Who do you relate to more? Is it Derek - the entrepreneur, who strives to question the status quo and bachelor searching for the one while being haunted by a dysfunctional childhood? Or is it Carmen - your typical straight A's student who became a dentist, now married but still in search of purpose and happiness?

The Source of Ambition... and the Truth Behind Teeth?

Welcome back! In episode 10, Derek and Carmen talk origin stories. Derek shares the details of how he pursued a less traditional career path - from music engineering and wedding photography to talent management and now, creating Schedule35. Derek discusses the “extra credits” theory which he believes to be the reason behind his risk-taking endeavours. Carmen shares how she stumbled into the misunderstood world of Dentistry.  She reveals the uncommonly known reasons why Dentists are among those who are known to have the highest suicidal tendencies. The episode ends off with a little light-hearted fashion talk when Carmen compliments Derek's ever so elegant fashion sense.


Some key questions for this week's discussion in our community Discord:

“What is the source of your drive and ambition?”

"Do you prioritize fear of safety or fear of regret?"
