50. From immigrants to college dropouts: mindful hustle, gratitude, & delayed gratification

"Hey dad, I'm dropping out of UBC to join a pyramid scheme." From an outsider perspective, that's crazy — but is it really? From being immigrants with social anxiety, to model minorities, to business experimenters, to now: Jay and Jo followed the least-conventional path. What does adversity teach us about work ethic? Does money buy happiness? How does one balance ambition and peace, or ego with self-actualization? Fuelled by White Claw, tune in for honest stories that may reframe your perspectives on life and success. This episode features Joseph Lieu and Jay Wang!
