Instructions on how to be an adult and live happily ever after. Do you want one? What if we were already given one but we just don’t like what is written? In this episode, Angela Kim from The Why Moments Podcast discusses the internal and external pressures of marriage, to have or not have kids, going to therapy, and how to tell all this to your Asian family. Content warning: suicide.

Highlights:

Why we confirm and more importantly, what happens when we don’t
How to tell your Asian parents you’re not ready for marriage
What is it like being the black sheep of a Korean Christian Family?
Telling mom about therapy and having panic attacks

Takeaways:

Parents can equate their self-worth based on how their children are performing. This is not your responsibility to upkeep.
If you want to dance, cry, laugh in public… just do it! The next person will be encouraged by you and we can all be a little more authentic with our emotions
You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t so you might as well do and live life to your own values
You don’t need to have something “wrong” in your life to go to therapy
