    We’re back for Season 3! Turning 35: thoughts, feelings & pressure

    We're back with Season 3! Turning 35 feels like a plot twist no one warned us about—especially when the questions about career, family, and personal growth hit all at once. Returning to a new season, Rox and Jules get real about the highs and lows of hitting 35. We explore how shifting priorities can feel empowering yet overwhelming. We share some personal insights on balancing ambition with self-acceptance, and cover topics that are on our minds as of late... from having babies to freezing our eggs. Hope you enjoy another catch-up with us :-) Timestamps: 0:00 Season 3 kickoff, new setup, and podcast Journey 2:21 Embracing and reflecting on turning 35 9:40 Career, ambitions, and personal growth 22:11 Future aspirations and family goals YOUTUBE 🎥 We're also on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – drop a comment and join the conversation!

    Lost in translation between Japanese, Korean and Cantonese as Asian Australians

    How often are you lost in translation? Are you bilingual, trilingual, or communicate often with bilingual family members? In our season 2 finale Asian Soup Podcast episode, we have our special guest Inah join us to chat about different expressions in Japanese, Jules shares phrases in Korean, while Rox relates her experiences with Cantonese. As Asian Australians from different backgrounds, we have a casual conversation to connect and understand more about each other. What translates to English and more often than not, what just can’t be translated? Grab a bowl and join us for a casual and light-hearted chat about the different experiences with our mother language we’ve had while growing up in Sydney, Australia. Hope you enjoy another catch-up with us :-) YOUTUBE 🎥 We're also on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – drop a comment and join the conversation!

  3. Family traditions around food growing up in Sydney as Asian Australians

    Family traditions around food growing up in Sydney as Asian Australians

    Are family traditions passed down from the last generation? Or do you make your own? Why does it feel like it always revolves around food? In this episode of the Asian Soup Podcast, we share more around our family traditions and meals, as well as our views on how they may have come about. Rox shares what some typical Chinese traditions could be, as well as what her own family traditions are. Jules shares how her family traditions have changed from childhood to adulthood, and what brings her family together. We explore what makes up our immediate and wider family and the traditions that have been created. We also chat about how regularity in what makes an event or activity a tradition, and how food is a common theme around our Asian Australian family traditions. Actually, a lot of it is around food! Grab a bowl and join us for a casual and a little hearty chat about the family traditions we’ve had while growing up in Sydney and our experiences and reflections from 30-something-year-old Asian Australians.

  4. Korean community, Chinese community, and Asian suburbs in Sydney

    Korean community, Chinese community, and Asian suburbs in Sydney

    Ever wondered what it's like growing up in Sydney's Asian communities? In this episode of the Asian Soup Podcast, we dive into our unique experiences. Jules shares her vivid memories of childhood in the Korean church community, reflecting on the close-knit bonds and traditions that shaped her upbringing. Meanwhile, Rox talks about growing up in a Korean suburb and the small (and sadly fading) Chinese Opera community that she is a part of through her mum's involvement in the Chinese Opera scene. We explore how Asian communities in Sydney form around religion, interests, and neighbourhoods, highlighting suburbs like Cabramatta, Strathfield, Lidcombe, Eastwood, West Ryde, and Hurstville. Grab a bowl and join us for a casual and a little hearty chat about the diverse Asian communities in Sydney and our experiences and reflections from 30-something-year-old Asian Australians.
