New year, new goals… but make it slightly delusional.In this episode of Casual Cry Club, we came together and caught up about the very serious goals we have for 2026, from personal growth to completely unserious life ambitions.From trying to embody top management energy at work to deciding it’s finally time to stop doom-scrolling before bed (maybe), we share the goals we’re actually trying to stick to this year… and the ones we’re absolutely giving ourselves a free pass for.Some of these are serious, some are slightly questionable, and some are just pure delusion.Hope this episode inspires you to set some realistic (and unhinged) resolutions. It's definitely never too late to start! 😉🎧 New episodes on Monday (GMT+8)⭐ Follow us on Spotify!

It finally happened: Sherry has quit her job 😱In this episode, we talk honestly about what pushed us to leave our jobs: months of anxiety, crying at work, losing sleep, bad managers, micromanaging, and that constant feeling of being triggered by every message from your boss.We unpack the red flags we ignored, the internal struggle of staying vs quitting (especially in Singapore where quitting feels taboo), and all the unhinged coping mechanisms along the way, from lo-fi mantra playlists and Harry Potter audiobooks to secretly interviewing after work like criminals.We also share how we actually quit: random “catch up” invites, ambush quit chats, using ChatGPT to translate emotions into corporate language, exit interviews, trauma bonding with colleagues, and the unexpected lightness that came after handing in our resignation.But don't take this as career advice. We are just two online besties sharing what it really felt like to quit, cry, panic, and finally breathe again.🎧 New episodes on Monday (GMT+8)⭐ Follow us on Spotify!

In the final episode of our travel series, we’re wrapping things up by sharing our travel highlights and comparing what it’s actually like getting around overseas versus back home in Singapore.We talk about scary encounters while travelling at night, including being watched in train stations of unfamiliar cities. From there, we get into the everyday stuff that really shapes a trip: food, transportation, and most importantly, the toilet situations we had to deal with.This episode is us reflecting on the little things that stood out after weeks of travelling: the discomforts, the surprises, and the quiet appreciation you only get once you’re finally home.🎧 New episodes on Monday (GMT+8)⭐ Follow us on Spotify!

Travelling with family is already chaotic. But now add foggy mountains, surprise costs, and a very convincing tour guide.In Part 2 of our family travel series, Sunny shares how a Zhangjiajie tour slowly turned into a series of tourist traps: cable cars that doubled the price of a tour package, mountains you couldn’t see because of fog, being locked in a “no-shopping” tea experience, and parents collecting health and spiritual scams like souvenirs.We also get into Chinese folklore, ghost stories, cinnabar bracelets, miracle detox tea, and how five days of spiritual storytelling somehow convinced an entire family to spend THOUSANDS of dollars “for protection.”🎧 New episodes every Monday (GMT+8)⭐ Follow us on Spotify!

Welcome back to another episode of 'our lives are falling apart but at least we have each other.' 🥲This week, we’re talking about our low points in life - but don’t worry, it’s not that deep.

💔 We always say we would never stay in a toxic relationship… until we do. In this raw and honest episode, we open up about the abusive and toxic relationships we found ourselves in: how they started with “love bombing” and ended with fear, shame, and finally, freedom. Sunny shares her story of dating someone who slapped his own mother, controlled her daily life during exchange, left her cruel “tests” to prove her worth, and once told her she deserved to die. Sherry recalls the ex who couldn’t handle his emotions, slamming things, gaslighting her, and even going on dating apps while they were still together. We talk about how we rationalised the red flags and how we finally broke free. We hope our experiences remind anyone listening: you are not alone, and love should never hurt like this. 🎧 New episodes every Monday (GMT+8)⭐ Follow us on Spotify!
