Why Listen?

On the first episode of Radically Honest, your host Dasom Lee addresses the 5 Ws—Who, What, When, Where, and Why—of this journey you’re invited on. Generation Z Digital Natives aspire to become influencers, entrepreneurs, or professionals. Essentially, self-employed or high-up in a prestigious company with a robust brand image that’s personal but also profitable. Radically Honest is a story-telling lifestyle podcast that unravels what separates self-help consumers from those who make it—penetrate the “dream” bubble. Our focus? It’s unconventional. The power of adversity to shape us, the hidden stories and low points we’re too afraid to share, and the vulnerability that we think outcasts us. It doesn’t. It unites. “We don’t offer advice, we gift life lessons.” Undoubtedly, our social media pages could use more empathy. How do we amplify it in a world heavily saturated by the “glamour” facade separating an audience from their guru? We peel it back. Our goal is to shed light on the difficult-to-talk-about, stripped, and uncomfortably raw aspects of being an influencer, entrepreneur, or professional who seemingly has it all. We combat misconceptions on fame or wealth with authenticity. Vulnerably, we invite each of you behind the curtain and into the outlandishly imperfect paths to making it big. So, what are our 5 Ws? Listen to the episode to find out. Our manifesto for the future of this podcast is simple: let’s stop hiding and discover something real. Join the movement.
