    Embracing Identity Ep. 2 - Before the Moment Ends

    In this episode, I dive into a quick conversation about the rise in AAPI hate crimes, my own emotion associated with the "model minority" myth, and my fears going forward. I hope to use this moment to have my voice be heard - before the movement may end.  #stopAAPIhate #stopAsianAmericanhate

    Draft Pick #1 - The Election Week Episode (originally recorded Nov. 13th 2020)

    It's no secret - a lot of episodes I've recorded have never seen the light of day. But the truth is often in the first take, the moments of real, raw, emotion. I want to take the opportunity I have to share those words. So here's me - more unedited and real than ever before.

    Hey After All These Years - ft. Hannah Diasti

    2020 is ending, so it's time to bring it FULL CIRCLE. In this episode, Michelle & Hannah (the first-ever guest of We're Always in Retrograde) crack open a year of chaos and take the time to accept change for what it brings and for what it takes away.  DISCLAIMER: This episode is titled to indicate that it's meant to be revisited as seasons pass and years fly by. Here's to listening again in 2021 and beyond :)
