Ep.24 - Lifing as Late ADHD x Autism Neurodivergent with Vanni Le (@vanni.pack)
Release Date: 4/20/2022
Duration: 74 Mins
Description: Welcome back to another episode of Asian Lifing! For many Asian American growing up, disability was something that was always shamed or judged upon. There were many stigma around this. In addition, media and representations have not been authentically portraying disability representations and as result, we never had much of a role model or influenced to look up to. We did not have resources or awareness of the disability network or community out there or were exposed to them because it was never really talked about. Even if our parents knew, they wouldn’t understand or would opt to not address it due to the fear, shame, and guilt influenced by the cultural upbringing they grew up with. Since then, times had changed and opportunities to address our cultural upbringing and embracing who we are and our uniqueness became more available. It is up to us to redefine this narrative and share our story to empower and uplift one another. I'm excited to have my awesome boss and friend, the Entertainment Outreach Program Manager at RespectAbility, Vanni Le (@vanni.pack) joining me on this episode as we discussed neurodiversity, our respective late diagnosis with autism (Dennis) and adhd (Vanni) and how our upbringing affected us, disability representations, and our advocacy work at RespectAbility. Come join us in this fun and engaging conversations about disability and our experiences as Asian Americans!

Ep.20 - Mastering the Self -S2 Finale
Release Date: 9/29/2021
Duration: 20 Mins
Description: Welcome back to another episode of Asian Lifing and the season 2 finale! Can't believe we have reached the finale for season 2 and 20 episodes later, what a journey it has been full of learning, growing, and evolving this past year. Its also almost been a year since I first began this podcast journey and documenting my life and experiences navigating life with mental health traumas and disabilities as an Asian American guy. There were so many changes and uncomfortable moments through this process and navigating life that contributed to my evolution and personal growth that I am proud of. There were many lessons I have learned through life and am still going through this process of adapting and constantly learning and evolving as I go. Life is challenging, but with the right approach and mindset, I believe we all can get to a place where we can all thrive! As we all go through life with each of our own personal journeys, we can often get lost and confused about who we are and what we are meant to do that clouded our judgment and existence on earth, whether it is due to our circumstances, disabilities, opinions of others, our parents, what society have framed us to believe, or what success may even look like. All of this can be overwhelming and we are left navigating life with negative thinking patterns, comparison, forcing things, and rushing the process, and not letting things unfold naturally. These factors should not dictate who we are or the life that we want to live. We are the protagonist of our own lives and we need to remember that. Come join me on this episode as I guide you through tools and tips that have helped me stay grounded and be my own protagonist on this journey in my life and how you can do the same by taking back control of it and live your best life starting now, as the protagonist of your own story!

The finale will end with just me as I connect and share deeper personal topics and experiences with you all, stay tuned! When it comes to dating, relationships, and sex within the Asian American Community, it’s often quite a blur, and hardly anyone ever talks about them or where or how to go about it. Though in recent times there have been various podcasts and Facebook groups that have touch upon these concepts. I believe that it’s always good to normalize these conversations and help each other be more connected, as everyone at some point in their lifetime experienced if they choose to go through this process. With that, I’m excited to bring on another special guest and good friend of mine Nathan Goh (@gohingthedistance) who will be sharing his experiences and perspective on dating, relationships, and sex from a guy's point of view, his imperfect growth in this journey to find love and everything he has learned up to this point!

A month to celebrate our culture and identity and who we are as Asian Americans, but really we should be celebrating it every day! Being Asian American is definitely complex and although we may share similar experiences and cultural backgrounds, our stories and journey in life that defines who we are, are very unique. Each of us faced our own set of challenges and hardships to get to where we are today navigating both our Asian and American identities. For today’s episode and to kick start the season, I have had the pleasure of catching up with my high school friend and Founder of Combatant, Kenny Hoang! @kennykhoang Although we grew up in the same hometown and may have shared similar experiences, our journey that shape up who we are and how we got to where we are today is very unique.

Ep.8 - To All the People I knew, Thank You!
Release Date: 3/4/2021
Duration: 11 Mins
Description: Welcome back to another episode of Asian Lifing! Endings suck... especially when there is no closure. We often fall for the fantasy that media and society have depicted of what relationship, friendship, and partnership should be like and that they are the happily ever after and the forever person. However, it is not like that at all, sometimes life gets in the way and it just does not work, that we have to go our separate ways, an ending of a toxic relationship, or simply you've outgrown one another through the process, whatever the reason may be. As painful as it sounds, we tend to chase after these fantasies and forced them upon, simply because we are scared to be alone or prolonged a relationship that no longer serves us because we are scared of the unknown. Come join me on this episode as I take a look back upon my life and share my experiences through a brief letter to the people who were a part of my life for better or worse, the tough lessons and hardship going through this process, and accepting reality as it is, with times come to experience.
