Not a Doctor, Still Alive: Redefining Asian Success

Doctor. Lawyer. The “acceptable” career paths many of us grew up hearing about.

In this episode, we get real about the unspoken pressures Asian kids face when it comes to careers.

From family expectations and cultural sacrifices, to aunties asking if we’re “still in school,” we share our own stories of guilt, rebellion, and choosing happiness over tradition.

It’s time to talk about what success really means — beyond titles, money, and community approval.

Tune in as we unpack where these pressures come from, how they’ve shaped us, and why redefining success on our own terms is the ultimate win.
