Welcome back to Kitchen Catchups ☕️🍴
Today I’m joined by Zenn, aka my other brain cell, longtime friend, editor, travel buddy and accidental Kitchen Chaos co-star 😂
We’ve known each other since 2017, so naturally… she knows WAY too much about me.
We’re going back to how we first met, what it’s really been like working together for 8 years, how Zenn somehow became part of my YouTube videos, the most unhinged things she’s witnessed behind the scenes, dating apps, stalking your date before meeting them, awkward influencer events, motherhood, friendship and how much we’ve both changed over the years.
Basically, this is one very overdue catch-up with someone who has genuinely seen me through some of the biggest chapters of my life.

More from Kitchen Catchups
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.
Things are getting WEIRD in the kitchen today! 😂 From the time we accidentally hired a topless cleaner (yes, really!) to creepy sleep paralysis stories, dreams that came true, manifestation and some wild conspiracy theories.
Zenn is back and this time we’re spilling the REAL tea ☕️👀
Welcome to the very first episode of Kitchen Catchups 🥟🤍
