After the Kids Go Down

About After the Kids Go Down

Bona and Eileen are friends and SAHMs who share a love of writing and honest conversation. From this, the podcast was born. They aim to kick perfectionism in the ass with courage and vulnerability. What eats at us? What drives us? What are we afraid to admit out loud? They’ll let you in on their thoughts and expand on them together. They’ll talk about their identity as Asian-American women, their communities, the systems we all live in, things they’ve been struggling to name, haven’t had a real moment to process, and of course, relatable daily experiences that help us laugh along the way.
