Jay Kiew has helped more than 50,000 leaders navigate change, but he's been living it his whole life. Over lychee Hi-Chew, we talk about guiding his blind dad through Singapore, moving eight times before age 12, surviving eye cancer as a baby and betting on himself with a mortgage on the line. Jay also gets real about losing his confidence on stage, being one of the few Asian speakers in the room and raising daughters who know they can figure things out.

Episode 25: Startups at 9, Stand-up at night
What happens when your day job is helping tech startups grow and your night job is making strangers laugh? Meet Bradley Fung, Education Program Manager at New Ventures BC and stand-up comedian who won Canada's Next Best Comic at the Sorry Comedy Festival. From growing up as a shy kid in East Van to performing at Just for Laughs Vancouver, Bradley shares how he balances two very different worlds, lessons he’s learned along the way, and the one flop that still haunts him today. I don’t think I’ve laughed so much interviewing a guest before. Hope you’ll get some chuckles listening to this episode!

Episode 24: In-Between and Free
This week's guest, Lisa Nakamura Durrell, has spent her career finding the human story hiding inside every industry – food, TV, brand work, you name it. In our conversation, she takes me back to her childhood in Calgary, split between Vietnamese, Japanese, and Canadian worlds, and walks through the unlikely chain of events that got her a spot on a national cooking show. We also talk honestly about ambition after motherhood, what she's still trying to figure out now, and why she'd rather measure her life day by day than chase one big legacy.
