#036- What a journey it’s been! Just 2 years ago, I launched the Yes I Kan Podcast with the intention that it would be a platform to empower and inspire others to see their greatest superpower- their authenticity. It has become so much more than that- and it has been so humbling to see what was created. However as my work is now moving in a different direction, after much contemplation, I have made the tough decision to close the curtains on the Yes I Kan Podcast.

In my last episode of this podcast, I wanted to pass on my top 10 lessons from my podcast journey and hope that it will inspire you one more time to see how powerful you truly are when you allow yourself to be fully seen and heard. I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing so many incredible people and have grown exponentially in this journey. I hope it has helped you grow on your journey too. Thank you for being on this journey with me- I’m so incredibly grateful! This isn’t good-bye, just simply see you later. Keep being fully, unapologetically, authentically YOU!

#035- For many Asian Americans, especially those whose parents were the first to immigrate to the West, there’s an immense pressure and expectation to succeed. When the odds are stacked against us, there’s an expectation that we need to figure out a way to win anyways. And if we fail- the shame can be suffocating and crippling- following us around into every step we take moving forward.

Today, I talk about re-defining failure and explore the question “what if we had permission to fail?” Who are we without achievements and accolades? And what could be possible for us if what we did or didn’t do could be separate from our wholeness, worthiness, and enough-ness?

#034- How often do we wait for permission or feel the need to ask for permission from others to be our authentic self? Today, I share my thoughts and my journey on the fears I’ve had with allowing myself to be fully seen and navigating through a world that sometimes isn’t kind to someone unconventional. For too long, we’ve given too much power to others to determine the validity of our experience- are you ready to take it back?

#33- In our time together, my wife and I have been through many big life changes and transitions. Some of them were sudden and unexpected while others were more gradual and planned. But one thing that remains the same is that each new chapter pushed us to come face to face with the fundamental question of “who are we really?” amidst new responsibilities, roles, and changes. Today, my wife and I discuss how we’ve navigated through moving to new countries, career changes, and lately becoming a parents and what we’ve learned to embrace our new circumstances without losing who we are.

#032- Today’s episode is my favorite yet as it is a first time BTS conversation with my wife, Ue Kan, about our journey so far as a Entrepreneur couple and family. We share our crazy stories and ups and downs with what it has taken for us to both follow our dreams and the reality behind the scenes that isn’t often talked about. We hope this conversation will inspire and empower you to see that it is possible to create a family vision that is big enough for each partner’s dreams!

#030- When we’ve been going down a path for so long- whether it’s our career or relationships, it becomes difficult to leave and pursue something or someone else- even if our heart tells us it’s where we need to go. So how can we find the courage and trust to take a leap of faith- especially when there’s no visible net beneath us? Do you want to look back with “would-have, could-have, should-have” or do you want to at least say “I’m proud I went for it”? Today, we have a conversation with Jessa who had a successful career in Neurosurgery with a Masters in Medical Science for a decade before waking up one day after a tragic loss realizing that she simply wasn’t living. We discuss how to trust the process when there’s no certainty, the importance of getting to deeply know yourself, and what it takes to navigate the ocean of unknown to your purpose.

#029- We live in a culture where sharing publicly is encouraged if not revered. In turn, it’s created a reality where the need to seek validation and approval is amplified on a much larger scale in this age of social media. Today, I discuss the dangers of sharing too early, why it’s important to guard our progress in the journey of change and how we can start protecting the things most dear to us- our vision and dreams.
