As 2022 is winding down, we wanted to share some lessons we've learned about how to grow more meaningful and vulnerable adult friendships. Not all friendships are built the same and it can definitely be challenging to decide to either evolve with your friends or know when you've outgrown each other. We also chat about how to be your own friend first and how to attract the friendships that foster deeper connections.  Follow us here!

#99 - Adult Friendship Glow Up (20's vs. 30's lessons)

We're diving right into this season with the most requested topic: intergenerational trauma. This is a topic we've talked about before in Ep 85 (feel free to listen to that again as well), but since then, we've learned even more about identifying the patterns, learning how everything is connected, and sharing our own experiences on how we're trying different tools to break the cycle within ourselves and in our own families.

#96 - Your 2022 Guide: How to Create Your Dream Life with Aileen Xu (@Lavendaire)

Ever felt like someone was mad at you for no reason? Or that you felt sad when someone else got a promotion? Projection happens when you least expect it, but it can feel just as painful as the actual event happening to you. This week, we dive deep into the situations where we noticed that we were projecting or being projected onto. The scenarios can be hard to detect, and often times make more sense after it has happened, but when you do the inner work, you can learn to distinguish what is truly bothering you or the other person.   Subscribe to us here and get early access to all our episode releases! https://anchor.fm/perfectlyimperfectpodcast/subscribe  Follow us here!

Linda Dong

What's the real deal with relationships? As women, we often go into dating blinded by the fantasy of LOOVE. Sometimes it's the Disney princess fairytale type of love or the chaotic but passionate K-drama love, but at the end of the day, we as young women were taught to stay innocent, never talk about sex, and always aim to please.This week our girlfriend Linda Dong, joins us as we dive into love advice we would give to our younger selves.

#90 - Surrender & Control with @Jrodtwins (Part 2)

Perfectly Imperfect is the show for those who are searching for growth and acceptance. As two Asian American women, Christine Chen and Regina Fang started having real and raw conversations after work 10+ years ago about our community and us as 20 something women. Now we’ve turned our 3am talks to this podcast where we can openly share thoughts + feels about mental health, friendships, and life lessons we’ve learned along the way. We are the sisters in your life that believe in building family through honesty, vulnerability and openness with ourselves and each other. We create meaningful and deep connections that make you feel loved and seen. You are not alone, come join our perfectly imperfect conversations!

I really enjoy this podcast that can be helpful for anyone because there are a variety topics that these women discuss in each of their episodes, so there should be a episode that would work for you. These women brings other podcasts host and friends to start a conversation of topics that we listener did not knew that these individuals are going through. Moreover, each episode lets their listeners know that it is fine to feel these emotions or experiences because it is tough to discuss or understand these kinds of problems. More importantly, these women start the conversation of different ways that they solved these problems and ways for us listeners to tried on our own. This podcast has been great listening to from the beginning knowing that each one of us have our own stories to tell and that none of us are perfect in any form.

Starting a conversation

These ladies are so honest about their experiences and shine light on some of the most important life lessons. As someone who has had trouble to always feel “at peace” with myself, this podcast is incredibly relatable and empowering at the same time and allows me to feel the peace within myself. Makes me realize I’m not alone in what I feel and that it is simply okay to not be perfect. Thank you for sharing your stories so candidly and I look forward to future episodes!

I love this podcast

Perfectly Imperfect with Christine and Regina

Jenn Im

There are a lot of things in life that don't make sense - jobs that we wanted but never got, relationships that we thought would be our forevers but didn't last, opportunities that we were so sure were right for us but ended up being another disappointment to add to our list.

#3 - What's Holding You Back?

There has always been a clear distinction in which men and women handle their feelings. For women, it’s okay to openly cry and talk about their feelings but for men, they are taught to suppress any emotion that isn’t anger or happiness. This stark contrast in gender expectations causes a whole lotta pain and assumptions on both sides and ends with us never truly understanding one another.This week, Christine’s brother Michael and fiancé Jack join in on the conversation about feelings. What were the expectations they faced as young boys that forced them to suppress their emotions? What were the consequences of that as they grew into men? How did they finally learn how to feel their feels and then be brave enough to express them outwardly? Listen in! It’s a good one, full of laughs, tears, and emotions!Follow Jack and Michael here:Jack - Instagram: @jackchenwashere; Podcast IG: @ballvslifeofficialMichael- Instagram: @mikerchenFABFITFUNTo thank you all for listening, we are offering $10 off your first FabFitFun box using code "PERFECTLY" at FabFitFun.com!

#29 - Getting Bare Naked with THE Wesley Chan (thewesleychan)

Ted Fu

Navigating in an extroverted world as an introvert can be exhausting. Others perceive introverts as shy, antisocial, weird, or even socially awkward is typically untrue.

After listening to this episode, you may realize that you got a bit of introvert all along!This week, we invited our big brother and favorite introvert Ted Fu to speak about this highly anticipated topic! Ted is known to be extremely private but we got the rare privilege to dig into his feels and talk about his experience + insecurities of being an introvert thrust into the spotlight. He shares how that has completely changed his life and perspective on himself. The more we explored our own stories, the more we began to understand that whether you're an introvert or extrovert, we have a lot more in common than we realize.AWKWARD ANIMAL GIVEAWAYTo enter, be sure you’re following @peachiechristine, @regina.fang, and @awkwardanimals on Instagram and leave a comment of your favorite moment from this episode on our most recent photo with Ted!

#35 - The Life of an Introvert with Ted Fu (tedfu)

It’s completely natural for us to seek external validation. As young children, we sought our parents approval, teachers approval, friends approval.

It’s completely natural for us to seek external validation. As young children, we sought our parents approval, teachers approval, friends approval. We were always waiting for someone else to tell us we were right, or cool, or pretty and that is how we started to view our self worth and gained our self understanding, from other people telling us what was good or bad.  Approval from others makes us feel good about ourselves, but how long does it really last?

#25 - Finding Your Soul Mate and Home with Wendy Nguyen (wendyslookbook)

For so long, the world teaches us to hate the way we look; from constantly wanting to change our natural features, to being extremely critical of every inch of our body. We constantly compare ourselves to these impossible images that we see on social/media that make us so unsatisfied with who we are. It is a daily battle to keep a positive body image of ourselves, and though we are still learning ourselves, we share how we cope with the process through self love.People Mentioned: @theashleygraham (Ashley Graham, A New Model)@iskra (Iskra Lawrence, Aerie)@ann.wynn (Ann Wynn, Pink Plastic Babez)Book: What I Know For Sure by Oprah WinfreyFollow us on social!Christine - Instagram: @peachiechristine; Twitter: @christinechen4Regina - Instagram: @regina.fang; Twitter: @reginafangPerfectly Imperfect - Facebook: perfectlyimperfectpodcastNEW episodes every TUESDAY!

#18 - I Hate My Body

This week, we talk about love, relationships, and friendships and just how toxic they can be. We've had our fair share of letting bad people stay in our lives longer than we should of because of the fear of being alone, settling, convincing ourselves it's us not them, or chasing a fairytale. What are the signs of a toxic relationship? What are the red flags you shouldn't ignore? And how do you break up with someone in a thoughtful and considerate way?It's never easy to let go of someone you've loved. But you have to ask yourself, are you more afraid giving up on the idea of someone or facing reality. Admitting and facing the truth is the hardest part. However, once you can be honest with yourself then you open up that space for REAL amazing things to finally come into your life.Christine's one on one chats: peachieloveblog.blogspot.com/2017/02/lets-chat-peaches-tea-with-christine.html?m=1Follow us on social!Christine - Instagram: @peachiechristine; Twitter: @christinechen4Regina - Instagram: @regina.fang; Twitter: @reginafangPerfectly Imperfect - Facebook: perfectlyimperfectpodcastNEW episodes every TUESDAY!

#5 - Selfish vs. Selfless: Where is the Balance?

The movies make love seem easy, an instant connection between the pair, a slight disagreement in the middle, but in the end, a happily ever after.From a very young age, we are taught to chase love. It allows us to have a partner in life, to have the family we've always dreamed of, and to feel accepted for everything we are. But what happens when we want all of those things, but are ultimately afraid to love?This week, we dive into how society has often romanticized love and make it seem so effortless. We discuss our fears when it comes opening up and being vulnerable to giving/receiving love and how those fears have affected our relationships in both the past and present.

#36 - Why Being Single was the Best Decision I Ever Made

What is wrong with me? Not good enough get into the university I wanted, not good enough to get a date, not good enough to land a job, not good enough be loved...NOT GOOD ENOUGH!Sound familiar? We've all had these thoughts about ourselves, and probably thought worse things in our heads. It feels like no matter how hard you try, you can't dig yourself out of this rut. We let these negative voices take over and then it's a quick downward spiral of us against the world.But here's the secret: failing and taking risks is what helps you level up in life. Achieving your impossible dreams is done by learning from your mistakes and taking that risk over and over again until you are molded and shaped to be the right key to unlock the next level. You'll then discover that life will open up and unfold in ways that you never thought possible! And it will happen to you because you were created specifically to fight and win those battles.In the meantime, take a moment to look up at the stars and breathe in how wondrous life is. It will help you see that you had the power all along to change... everything.Follow us on social!Christine - Instagram: @peachiechristine; Twitter: @christinechen4Regina - Instagram: @regina.fang; Twitter: @reginafangPerfectly Imperfect - Facebook: perfectlyimperfectpodcastNEW episodes every TUESDAY!
