S3E14: We're not really strangers (we hope)
Another one of our favourite types of episodes and also a popular one you guys have asked for. We’re playing ‘We’re not really strangers’!
Not only do these card games help give us prompts in some questions we haven’t really thought about asking each before. But it does also help give more purposeful and meaningful conversations without the awkwardness of wondering how to start the conversation.
If you are strangers, this is a great game to bridge the gap to learn more about each other. If you are friends or a couple, you can continue to learn more or dive deeper in conversations you may have started.
As we only had time for a handful of questions, join us as we discuss:
Our most painful moments that wasn’t physical
Why do we think we met
What is our biggest fear (that’s not cockroaches)
and much more!

S3E12: What are our deepest regrets?! 😔
Regrets is something that can either weigh us down or teach us lessons as part of the experience of life. Some people say this lightly, some people say this with a heavy heart.
So today we discuss some of OUR deepest regrets and explore why they are our regrets.
In saying that, we’re not big on dwelling on past experiences, instead we like to keep moving forward and see how we continue to better ourselves each day. So is regret really just us overthinking or can it be more than that?
Join us as we discuss all the layers and aspects of this feeling of regret and how we can work with it.
If you have any tips and personal ways in dealing with regrets, send us a DM on our Instagram so we can share it around!
