12 - Botox, Black Boyfriends & Bad B*tch Business

Annie joins Rachel to talk about how she accidentally became a NYC Midtown facial spa owner after her mom casually said, “I found a place,” and signed a lease the next day. They get into facials, injections, hiring 19-year-old nail prodigies, and the fact that her mom literally injects her own face — the ultimate trust signal in beauty services.They also spiral into dating histories (Asian → Black → Hispanic → White men pipeline), the sociology of white-man boyfriends, the “Asian woman as tech-bro accessory” memes, and the Oxford study that no one can cite correctly.Annie drops her hot take: marriage should come with a contract expiration date — like a job — complete with performance reviews. They unpack aging, why Asian women supposedly don’t age (spoiler: it’s genes + happiness + tretinoin), and whether facials or nails matter more when you’re broke but want to feel hot.A chaotic, wholesome, surprisingly philosophical episode about beauty, business, and bad ex-boyfriends.--Follow the host Rachel Yu on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow the show on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠
