Customer Reviews
Good podcast
Nice diverse Asian guests. Would be great if the host could let the guest speak more. Thank you.
Great for inspo during my commute
Everyone gets in a motivation rut. For me, whenever I need to boost my motivation I like listening to the stories of the varied AAPI leaders interviewed here. Some I’ve heard of before, but a lot I hadn’t. So it’s cool to see so many AAPI people just excelling and telling their story. Esp the struggles that led to where they are today.
An important category
Jerry gives an important voice for Asian Americans allowing a variety of viewpoints to be shared to a wider audience. Keep up the great work in finding energizing stories and perspectives
