    S12E06 What If You Gave Everything and Still Fail | Kerstin Ong & Daniel Yeow | The Price of Becoming

    How much would you risk for a dream that might never pay off? Singapore national hurdler Kerstin Ong left a stable corporate career to pursue athletics full-time: giving up her income, putting other life plans on hold and funding much of the journey herself. And there’s still no guarantee she’ll make it. Kerstin and Daniel Yeow, cofounder of The Social Space get candid about sacrifice, failure, self-doubt and what it takes to keep choosing something when the outcome remains uncertain. Kerstin shares what it was like to spend 10 years trying to qualify for the SEA Games, nearly walk away from the sport, finally break the national record she had chased for years, and then feel lost when achieving it didn’t bring the fulfilment she expected. Together, they explore what happens when you stop living by what looks sensible, admit what you really want, and give yourself permission to try. Because perhaps the bigger risk isn’t failing. It’s looking back and wondering what might have happened if you had tried. 🎙️ About the Podcast The Clean Your Toilet Podcast explores the inner work behind identity, leadership, mastery, creativity and building a meaningful life through honest, unfiltered conversations.

    S12E05 Do First Think Later | Munah Bagharib & Daniel Yeow | The Price of Becoming

    Do you really need to have it all figured out before you begin?Munah Bagharib, Actress, Host & Content Creator, and Daniel Yeow, cofounder of The Social Space sit down for an honest conversation about uncertainty, finding meaningful work, taking risks and discovering who you are through the choices you make.Munah reflects on 17 years of becoming: from two kids making YouTube videos with no real direction, to building a career across content, acting and hosting. Along the way, she almost gave it all up for a 9-to-5, kept stepping into things she wasn’t ready for, and learnt that clarity often comes from trying, failing and figuring things out as you go.Together, they explore what it means to trust the process, do things that make you uncomfortable, ask for help and keep moving even when you don’t know exactly where you’re headed.Because sometimes you don’t find clarity before you begin.You begin, and clarity finds you along the way.🎙️ About the PodcastThe Clean Your Toilet Podcast explores the inner work behind identity, leadership, mastery, creativity and building a meaningful life through honest, unfiltered conversations.What would you start if you didn’t need to have it all figured out first?⏱️ Chapters00:00 You Don’t Need to Have It Figured Out00:45 Meet Munah Bagharib & Daniel Yeow04:51 Stepping Into Something Before You’re Ready06:10 Two Kids With a Camera08:25 When Comedy Became Something More13:20 Why Munah Keeps Doing This After 17 Years16:49 The Moment She Almost Gave It All Up17:04 Trying a 9-to-5 — For Less Than a Week19:34 From YouTuber to Actor & Host22:29 Finding Work That Actually Means Something29:39 Building a Voice People Trust32:58 When Who You Are Becomes Part of the Work42:01 You Can’t Hide Who You Really Are48:23 What Did Munah Have to Leave Behind?49:08 Becoming Without Losing Yourself51:26 Why Meaningful Things Take Time54:12 Do You Need Clarity Before You Begin?55:54 Finding Clarity Through Making Mistakes58:12 Do First, Think Later59:29 Keep Doing Things You’re Bad At1:01:41 Learning to Ask for Help1:04:18 Don’t Let Fear Stop You1:05:16 Do First.

    S12E04 When Doing Good Gets Hard | Raye Padit & Daniel Yeow | The Price of Becoming

    What happens when the work you believe in starts costing you more than you expected?Raye Padit, founder of The Fashion Pulpit, and Daniel Yeow, founder of The Social Space, have spent the last eight years building businesses around something bigger than profit.But purpose doesn’t make the struggle disappear.In this episode of The Price of Becoming, Raye and Daniel get candid about the hidden cost of building something that matters — the sacrifices, financial pressures, personal toll, moments of resentment, and the times they wondered whether it was still worth continuing.Daniel shares what it means to run a business built around inclusive employment — including being there when a team member calls at 2am, carrying responsibilities that go far beyond a conventional employer-employee relationship, and learning that doing good still needs a sustainable business model.Raye opens up about almost raising the white flag when The Fashion Pulpit lost its space, only to discover just how much the community valued what they had built.Together, they explore a question many purpose-driven founders eventually face:Is purpose enough to keep you going when the cost becomes too high?And perhaps an equally important one:When we are constantly chasing what’s next, do we ever stop long enough to recognize what we’ve already built?Sometimes the price of becoming isn’t only what you have to give up.It’s also what you choose to carry.🎙️ About the PodcastClean Your Toilet is a podcast about the conversations we often avoid — the messy, uncomfortable and deeply human parts of becoming who we are.In The Price of Becoming, we go behind the achievements, titles and public identities to explore what it actually costs to build a life, career or body of work that matters.What have you had to carry in order to build something you believe in?Tell us in the comments.⏱️ Chapters00:00 Is Purpose Enough?00:53 The Price of Becoming03:13 What Raye Had to Sacrifice04:43 Leaving Home to Find Out What She Was Made Of09:25 The Moment Fashion Started to Feel Wrong12:45 Why Daniel Left Singapore Airlines16:50 Finding the Real “Why” Behind The Fashion Pulpit23:01 Training People to Be Good Enough to Leave25:32 The Cost of Doing Deeply Human Work29:13 Building Inclusive Employment Without a Blueprint32:26 When Purpose Becomes Unsustainable35:10 Raye’s “White Flag” Moment41:39 When the Weight of Expectations Grows42:28 Daniel Wonders Whether It’s Time to Quit45:47 Remember What You’ve Built49:00 Is Purpose Enough to Sustain a Business?51:03 Purpose vs Profit55:08 Stop Chasing the Next Version of Yourself58:42 What Are We Actually Running Towards?1:00:46 What Really Matters in the End#PurposeDriven #Entrepreneurship #socialentrepreneurship #socialimpact #sustainability #fashion #diversityandinclusion #personalgrowth #resilience #sacrifice #communitysupport #communitylove #fulfillment #innerwork #businessgrowth #CleanYourToiletPodcast #podcast #singapore​

    S12E03 What Happens When Success Is No Longer Enough? | Benjamin Kheng & Daniel Yeow | The Price of Becoming

    What happens when the success you once chased no longer feels like enough?Benjamin Kheng, Artist (Musician / Actor / Writer) and Daniel Yeow, co-founder of The Social Space sit down for an honest conversation about success, identity, music, running, grief, community and what begins to matter when achievement stops being the measure of a meaningful life.Ben opens up about stepping away from music to find happiness again, finding peace through running and community, and how his relationship with success has changed over the years.The conversation also goes somewhere much more personal — into loss, family, grief and the question of what we ultimately leave behind.Sometimes becoming isn’t about achieving more. It’s about redefining what makes a life worth living.🎙️ About the PodcastThe Clean Your Toilet Podcast explores the inner work behind identity, leadership, mastery, creativity and building a meaningful life through honest, unfiltered conversations.What happens when the things you once wanted are no longer what you need?⏱️ Chapters00:00 Meet Benjamin Kheng & Daniel Yeow07:55 What Does Success Mean to Ben Now?13:10 Why Running Has Given Ben Peace18:15 The Reality of Being Publicly Known32:20 When Success Stops Being the Goal38:30 Stepping Away From Music40:30 Finding His Way Back to Why He Loved Music49:00 Community, Connection & Creating Again58:25 How Grief Changes Over Time1:00:00 Daniel on Losing His Father to Dementia1:08:45 Why We Need to Slow Down1:11:30 What Do We Leave Behind?1:16:00 What Makes a Life Worth Living?#CleanYourToiletPodcast #beyourself #PersonalGrowth #Meaning #purposedriven #running #community #communitybuilding #communitylove #communitysupport #peace #grief #therapy #psychology #innerwork #fulfillment #relationships #family #friendship #podcast ​

    S11E07 What Have We Stopped Seeing? | Tsuyumi Miwa & Lim Pei Ying | CYT Tradition & Heritage

    What happens when we stop seeing what’s right in front of us? The people. The traditions. The details of everyday life. Sometimes, it takes an outsider to remind us what we already have. For Tsuyumi Miwa, Japanese heritage artist, poet and writer based in Singapore, seeing has taken on a different meaning. Tsuyumi loved art from childhood. But while living in Australia, a severe allergic reaction led to emergency surgery and the temporary loss of her sight. For more than a month, she lived in darkness. Without sight, her other senses became more sensitive. When she regained her vision, the experience changed her. She later became an NHK announcer, working on a radio programme for blind listeners. As Tsuyumi puts it: “I lost my eyesight, but I became their eye.” Years later, after moving to Singapore, she returned to art—and began seeing things many of us had stopped noticing. When someone told her Singapore had “no culture”, she couldn't believe it. She saw culture everywhere: Peranakan shoemakers, flower garland makers, opera performers, kopitiam operators and traditional artisans quietly keeping their crafts alive. So she started painting them. Her Singapore Cultural Series captures their stories and the worlds they carry with them. In this finale of Tradition & Heritage: Compass or Shackle, Tsuyumi sits down with Lim Pei Ying, ICF Master Certified Coach and Producer of the Clean Your Toilet Podcast, to explore what it means to truly see our culture, others and ourselves. Together, they explore: - How losing her sight changed how she saw the world. - Becoming “the eyes” for blind listeners. - Finding her way back to art. - Why she began documenting Singapore heritage. - The artisans and traditions we've stopped noticing. - What outsiders sometimes see that insiders can't. - What we lose when culture disappears. - Honouring what we inherit without being trapped by it. There is a beautiful irony in Tsuyumi's story. Someone who once lost her sight has spent years helping others see. The people we overlook. The beauty in the ordinary. The culture quietly disappearing around us. Her work gives Singapore a mirror. An artisan retires. A shop closes. A skill isn't passed down. Something we barely noticed becomes something we wish we'd appreciated. When culture disappears, we don't just lose what people made. We lose how they saw the world. So the real question is: What have we stopped seeing? And what might we discover if we look again? 🎙️ About the Podcast The Clean Your Toilet Podcast explores the inner work behind identity, leadership, mastery, creativity and building a meaningful life through honest, unfiltered conversations. What about your own culture have you stopped noticing? ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Meet Tsuyumi Miwa 02:55 Falling in Love With Art 09:42 The Accident That Changed Everything 10:51 Regaining Her Eyesight 12:33 Becoming an NHK Announcer 15:55 “I Lost My Eyesight, But Became Their Eye” 18:25 If You Love Something, It Comes Back 20:55 Returning to Art After 10 Years 23:06 “Singapore Has No Culture?” 25:13 Why She Started Preserving Singapore Heritage 28:26 Finding Singapore's Forgotten Artisans 31:00 Painting Their Stories 39:56 Painting Is Connection 43:23 Seeing the People Singapore Has Left Behind 44:40 What Can an Outsider See That We Can't? 46:50 Leaving Home to See Your Culture Clearly 49:38 Culture Lives in the Smallest Gestures 54:55 What Happens When Singapore Loses Its Culture? 56:16 Culture Is a Country's Soul 1:04:42 Bringing Singapore & Japan Together 1:06:19 Are You Living Someone Else's Story? 1:07:28 Honour Where You Come From.

    S11E06 What Makes You Who You Are | Alvin Yapp & Lim Pei Ying | CYT Tradition & Heritage: Compass or Shackle

    What makes you who you are? Your family? Your culture? Or the people and experiences that shape you along the way? For Alvin Yapp, Founder of The Intan Peranakan Museum, understanding his identity didn't happen overnight. Growing up, Alvin knew he was Peranakan but didn't really know what that meant. He knew he was different. So he became curious. What began with collecting Peranakan antiques at garage sales grew into more than 40 years of collecting and eventually The Intan—his home that transforms into a museum when visitors walk through the door. But the objects were never just things. They helped him understand who he was. In Tradition & Heritage: Compass or Shackle, Alvin sits down with Lim Pei Ying, ICF Master Certified Coach and Producer of the Clean Your Toilet Podcast, for a conversation about culture, family, life, death and the experiences that shape us. As a young man, Alvin volunteered at a hospice. The people he met there left him with a message he never forgot: Don't wait. Travel. Say sorry. Tell people you love them. Do the things you keep putting off. And Alvin lived by it: travelling, living overseas, backpacking across continents and even volunteering in a leprosy community in India. Perhaps that's why his view on heritage is unexpected. After 40 years preserving Peranakan objects, Alvin doesn't believe younger generations need to preserve every custom to keep the culture alive. Just know who you are. When you understand where you come from, your heritage will find its own way of showing up. Together, they explore: * Growing up Peranakan without knowing what it meant. * How collecting helped Alvin understand himself. * Why heritage isn't about preserving everything. * What dying people taught him about living. * The people and experiences that shaped him. * His search for his family roots. * Why life is too short to keep waiting. Culture changes. Traditions evolve. Objects disappear. But knowing where we come from can help us understand who we are and what we choose to carry forward. Alvin's closing message is simple: Live life to the fullest. No regrets. 🎙️ About the Podcast The Clean Your Toilet Podcast explores the inner work behind identity, leadership, mastery, creativity and building a meaningful life through honest, unfiltered conversations.
