    Would You Date You? What Makes Someone a Good Partner • ft Graeme Tan Jie, MrMoney & Nicole Lau

    💔 Have you ever poured your heart into a relationship… only for it not to work out? Sometimes, love isn’t enough — and that’s okay.In this episode of Figuring It Out, I sat down with MrMoney, Instagraeme, and Nicole Lau to talk about the realities of modern relationships. From why dating without intention almost always fails to how Instagram can actually be the new Tinder (but better 👀), we break down what it really takes to find love today.One thing I learned? Being in a relationship isn’t just about feelings — it’s a daily decision to choose the same person, again and again. And sometimes, even if you give your all, it still doesn’t work out… and that’s not the end of your story.If you’re figuring out love, heartbreak, or what you actually want in a partner, this episode is for you. ❤️---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hosted by Melody, this podcast discusses anything and everything related to adulthood —the highs, lows, messy parts, and fun parts.

    You Ask We Answer (Finance Edition) ft. Peter Yong & Frankie Lim • Figuring It Out Episode 17

    So... building a good credit score may not be that hard?You always hear that having a good credit score is important and difficult to maintain — but no one really tells you how to actually build one, especially when you're just starting out. We kept seeing this question pop up in our DMs and comments, so we decided to compile all your burning finance questions and answer them in this QnA episode of Figuring It Out 🔍With the help of finance pros Peter Yong and Frankie Lim, we learned that one of the easiest ways to build your credit score is by simply placing your recurring bills — like phone or Spotify — on your credit card and paying them off consistently 📱✅. It automates your credit usage, keeps your score active, and most importantly, it builds a healthy credit habit — as long as you treat your credit card like a debit card and only spend what you already have in cash 💸Want more tips like this? Comment down below and we'll try our best to answer them.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hosted by Melody, this podcast discusses anything and everything related to adulthood —the highs, lows, messy parts, and fun parts.

    You Ask We Answer Pt.2 [Career] ft Peter Yong & Ai Lyn • Figuring It Out Ep 13

    So… Are We Really Weaker Than Our Parents’ Generation? 🤔Is it true that the older generation is more tahan lasak than us? Or are we just wired differently because we’ve grown up with more comfort and opportunity? 🧠💭 This was one of the many thought-provoking questions we answered in this career Q&A episode — where we tackled your DMs, comments, and late-night overthinking.From employer POVs to employee struggles, we did our best to give both sides of the story — even if the answers weren’t so straightforward. Maybe every generation is softer… but maybe that’s because our parents worked hard to give us that softness in the first place.I don’t know… food for thought?
