A podcast where two friends dive into conversations about everyday life – the complex, messy, and unexpectedly joyous and sad ways we feel, speak, and be.
We’re here to listen and to share the intimate stories we all bear – sometimes too close to heart and sometimes just waiting to be heard. Living in a world with people is tricky. It gets a bit lonely and it gets a bit loud at times. Let's discover the experience of being human, and feel the gap, together.
In this episode, we enter 2023 with reflections on loneliness that creep up at different phases in our lives. Together with our guest from Vietnam, we talk about being seen, existential emptiness, the struggles of finding a good listener, and the difficulties of accepting such painful feelings.

10. Change: Holding on and letting go
In this catch-up episode of FTG, we dip our toes in some vulnerability and unpack the changes that have been happening in our lives – the start and end of relationships, jobs, and homes. It’s all about change: how difficult and painful it can be, the growth in letting go, and finding excitement and liberation in change. We even sneak in a little behavioural experiment [see 45:00] that takes form from mindfulness and attachment. We wish you all the best in your changes.

6. Exploring our inner voices
In this episode, we delve deeper into the world of our inner voices with the help of a new voice (pun intended) on the podcast. We explore the ironic ways we can bring ourselves down during times that we need a little more care, the language and culture of our environments that build such voices, and ways we have learned to manage and grow our healthier voices.

5. The language we use to speak to ourselves
In this episode, we were curious about the ways we have learnt to speak to ourselves- perhaps a very early step into this topic. In the vast space of our minds, we can sometimes become our own worst critics...never satisfied, demanding more. Other times, we may hear a softer and kinder voice. We talk about the balance of being self-critical but also self-affirming, and possibility of thriving in the world without having the inner critic as the only voice we hear.

2. Not being good enough
In this episode of Feel The Gap, we explore the extremely real and yet undeniably torturous struggle we have with feeling good enough with ourselves. We delve into stories about romantic partners and confessions, comparing ourselves to others, feeling like we're falling behind in life, and questioning whether what we're doing is actually enough.
01:30 - Difficulties with putting our hearts out there, the fears of rejection, and being good enough for someone else.
22:32 - Feeling inadequate with our progress in life, and using other people as benchmarks for our value.
44:28 - It's hard being a teacher, and it's hard knowing whether what we do for others is ever really good enough.
