Show Notes
We are back for a proper catch up🤍 In this episode, we’re talking about our very different childhoods, growing up with immigrant parents, how becoming parents has changed our perspective, raising our own kids, moving from Australia to Singapore and eventually Vietnam, and what it’s really been like working together as a couple for almost a decade.
We also answer some of your anonymous dilemmas, from questioning whether you’re with the right person to knowing when it’s time to leave a toxic relationship 👀
Grab some food and catch up with us!
