Perfectly Imperfect with Christine and Regina

As 2021 winds down and we begin to dream about all the amazing goals we'd like to reach for 2022, we're faced with the same questions: What's my purpose? How do I want to keep growing? What impact do I want to have on my world? In other words, how do you become "an artist of life and start creating your dream life through self discovery, self love, and living a meaningful life?" This week, our very special guest, Aileen Xu (@Lavendaire), not only has the answers for these questions but also the very practical guides on starting this journey for yourself. She's a mogul, content creator, entrepreneur, and a beautiful inspirational soul who we've learned so much from. Tune in on our final episode this year! Cheers!!

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.

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. We reflect on the patterns and self sabotaging ways that affected our past relationships or even how we date now. Thank you to our sponsor BetterHelp!

There’s a saying that “image is everything.” In today’s social media run world, the pressures of that mentality are more overwhelming than ever before. With a click or a swipe, anyone and everyone can see what your life is about, how you look, how talented you are, as well as being constantly bombarded with images of how we SHOULD look, act, and live. We're often left with the question, who am I really vs. who I want people to think I am? This week, we talk to our amazing friends Jason and Justin Rodjanapanyakul who share their journeys from moving down to LA to pursue their Youtube dreams to now discovering what their next chapter holds.

Sexuality is something that is not often talked about in the Asian American community. We grow up very sheltered and everything is very black or white in terms of what is allowed and accepted.. However as we get older, we learn that the spectrum of attraction, gender, sexuality runs so much deeper than what we’ve been taught. This week, we are so excited to have our dear friend, Kenson Lee, open up and talk honestly about his journey with his sexuality. During the pandemic, he allowed himself to explore and share what he’s been learning about what sexual attraction means to him including his fetishes.

When we were kids, our parents were our heroes - they seemed to do no wrong and taught us everything that we needed to know. As we got older and experienced life outside of our family dynamic, things started to change - we started to question those differences. Our instinct became to fight back, either with our parents or within ourselves.  This week, we share the family trauma we’ve experienced and how that has shaped us throughout our lives, especially now as adults. From mental to physical abuse, we talk about how intergenerational trauma has cycled into our lives, how we’re learning to recognize it, and how we’re breaking those toxic patterns.  Follow us here!

DISCLAIMER: Before we get started with this week’s episode about our thoughts on Disney’s new live action Mulan, we wanted to address the controversies surrounding the film. We understand the frustrations and concerns including the main actress, YiFei’s, comments on the Hong Kong protests/police brutality and Disney’s decision to film Xinjiang where there are active Concentration Camps. We do not in anyway condone their behavior or actions and believe that this is something that Disney needs to address directly, and we hope they do so soon out of the respect of the one million lives that are still in suffering.  With that being said, we respect everyone’s decision as to why they would or wouldn’t want to watch Mulan. This episode is meant to dissect the film based on our own love of the original animated one and the impact it has had on us as Asian Women, we hope you enjoy this episode. WARNING: SPOILERS Soooo, let's talk Disney's new live action Mulan. This week, we invite our incredibly talented sister, Minji, to help us dissect the film from an industry perspective, and we have a LOT to say. Having grown up with the animated film, we each have an emotional attachment to Mulan; she was the first Disney princess who looked like us and inspired us with her courage, perseverance, and loyalty. So, how did Disney do with the live action retelling? Listen in to this week's episode! P.s. Spoilers! Follow Minji here! Instagram: @minjeezy, Podcast: First of All Follow us here!

In this politically tense climate, it's easy to get pitted against one another through the media and circulating rumors creating a mob mentality where neither side can see eye to eye.

We meet, At Last, the women's workwear line that Regina has been working on over the past year! It is a culmination of the hopes and dreams she's always had of being able to inspire confidence in women by helping them realize that everything they ever wanted is already within themselves. The fashion industry is constantly polluted with images of unrealistic expectations of how women are supposed to look/dress and Regina realized how much of a toll it took on her own self esteem. With that being her why, she wanted to create a line with timeless classics that are long lasting and fit a variety of body types, which included creating a new sizing system! However, as picturesque as it sounds, the journey wasn't easy. It was filled with doubts, fears, and insecurities that were put on blast as she tried to navigate becoming a first time entrepreneur. From taking clothing design classes to traveling to China to learn about fabric and production factories, to dealing with a pandemic, to finding her purpose, what were the mistakes she made? What would she have done differently? Why fashion? Listen to this week's episode to learn more about the company she is trying to build, her purpose, and the efforts they are currently putting to helping first line responders during this pandemic!

This week, we dive deep and think back about all the opportunities we had once hoped and dreamed about, that never came to fruition.

If only love was always mutual. More often than not, we find ourselves (or the other person), being in the friend-zone, friends with benefits, the only one wanting to say I love you, or the only one who wants to get married and constantly waiting around for your partner to be ready... How do we overcome our fear of getting hurt or rejected while allowing ourselves to be vulnerable? How can we admit what we really want in a romantic relationship? When do you keep doing what is “comfortable” vs. stepping out and asking for what you truly want because you’re really not that happy? Let's chat

During a time when we are constantly surrounded by social media and watching everyone's highlight reels, it’s hard not to feel FOMO or jealousy for what everyone else is doing. Feelings of envy can be all consuming which can also lead to feelings of inadequacy and depression. So how do we combat this jealousy? Are we truly jealous of what others have or is there a deeper message behind this emotion? How do we use these triggers as opportunities for self growth and to find maturity to be genuinely happy for others while not letting their successes define us? Follow us here!

In light of the current events that have been happening all around the world right now with Black Lives Matter, we wanted to share some self reflections, with our raw and honest truths. Like many of you, we’ve been listening, educating ourselves, and reflecting about the deeply rooted injustices towards our black brothers and sisters. We are learning how to do our part to be strong allies and to fight for anti-racism; from checking our own privileges, to sharing how we’ve talked to our parents about the subject matter, to really diving in to what the model minority myth means for us, we are educating ourselves on how we can better bridge that gap from seeing each other as separate to fighting together for one truth. Equality for all. If you're going through a rough time right now, please feel free to reach out to us via email or DM, we're here for you #pipfam

Our incredible friend, Shelly Kim, joins us this week to talk about her journey of how she turned her hobby and love of hand lettering into a full blown business!

Wanting to make a living from doing what you love is a beautiful dream. But it takes so much hard work, perseverance, finding inspiration when you have none, and learning to adjust from things that didn't go your way.

Once a month we will be collecting questions on our Instagram (@perfectly.imperfect.podcast) for the specific theme that month and answer YOUR questions! This month, in honor of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month and Mental Health Awareness Month, we answered your questions around the theme of "identity." So much of who we are is through our heritage and traditions but we all know that it can have drastic affects on our mental health. How do we both embrace our heritage while trying to create our own identity? Should we try to just blend into the crowd? Listen in!

Always remember that you're never alone. Sharing your thoughts and feelings when you’re ready can help immensely to release and heal. The more that we are willing to talk about the challenges we're going through mentally and emotionally, the more that we understand one another. Mental health isn't scary. It doesn't define you. You are strong, and you will get through this.

Loneliness is an aching inside of us, a longing for understanding, acceptance, and comfort. It’s a feeling that happens to all of us and more often than not, can happen even in a crowded room. So why is loneliness always portrayed as the person who is the odd one out? What can fill that emptiness we feel? This week, we dive into the first time we felt loneliness (pre-Covid times). We discuss the ways that we’ve learned to cope with it, the mechanisms to help us get out of it, and how to approach a friend who may be experiencing loneliness.  If you're going through a rough time right now, please feel free to reach out to us via email or DM, we're here for you #pipfam

Growing up, we were constantly trying to find that balance between who society tells us to be and who we think we should be…but at the end of the day, who are we really? This week, we have on our beautiful friend Rowena Tsai who dives deep into understanding herself and her calling through lots of trials and tribulations. It’s easy to ignore your feelings and keep grinding towards a life you think you want, but when you hone in on your inner voice, you’ll realize that your purpose and mission are stronger than anything that was holding you back.  Follow Rowena here: Rowena Tsai - Instagram: rowenatsai; YouTube: rowenatsai and beautywithin (NTDHealthandBeauty) Christine - Instagram: @xoxochristinechen; Twitter: @christinechen4 Regina - Instagram: @regina.fang; Twitter: @reginafang Perfectly Imperfect - Instagram: @perfectly.imperfect.podcast; Facebook: perfectlyimperfectpodcast Remember to rate, review, and subscribe on iTunes and don't forget to tell a friend about the show :) See you guys next week!

During this very overwhelming time, we wanted to record a special episode of Perfectly Imperfect to offer some emotional support for everything that has been going on in the world. 2020 has been… a LOT and has really forced us to come to terms with a lot of social ugliness that we've gotten used to or overlooked in our own lives. What can we really take away from all this and how do we manage our anxiety during these trying times? We get honest about how we’re dealing with the pandemic and what we’re doing to stay well mentally and physically.

We're BACK!! Starting off 2020 with a bit of a cleansing as we talk about how we learned about when is it the right time to let go of something or to push through?

As we reflect on season 3, we can’t help but feel so thankful for each and every single one of you who joined us on our journey this year. A year ago, we were both lost, finding our footing, wanting to start something but letting our doubts and fears get in the way. There was so much growth that has happened in our lives and in our friendship this season that led to Christine starting her own life coaching business, Regina starting her own clothing line, and us joining forces with AsianBossGirl and First of All podcasts to throw our first live event, "Off the Mic." Ideas that were once dreams are now coming to fruition. This week, we talk about what season 3 has meant to us and answer some of your most asked questions! Thank you for supporting us, thank you for believing in us. Grateful for another season, see you guys in 2020!

From making videos in his apartment in Ohio to having one of the most popular shows on Buzzfeed, Steven Lim has done it all. After giving up his “stable” career in engineering to pursue the entertainment industry, he found himself in the spotlight living the LA dream he had spent years wishing for. He started to pave the way for Asian American representation and creating content that brought joy to others. Though he seemingly got everything he had hoped for, it didn’t take long for him to become jaded and confused. This week, we talk to our dear friend Steven about the trials and tribulations he went through while working in this seemingly picturesque industry, and why it ultimately led him to take a mental breather in NYC. What are the biggest differences between east and west coast? Is everyone in the industry really that terrible? How has his mindset changed about the industry since starting it a decade ago?

Growing up is hard enough as it is. Growing up as a star in the spotlight and constantly being judged on who you can or can't be, what you should wear, what you said or didn't say... it's suffocating. This week, our little sister Megan Lee joins us to share her story in the entertainment industry. Ever since she was a little girl, Megan knew she wanted to be an entertainer. She loved dancing, signing, acting, and saw the beauty in being able to positively influence others through performance - but after moving Korea to pursue it at full force, the harsh realities of what was expected of her started to settle in and she had to grow up really fast. Megan opens up about how the industry how affected her mental health, how she was able to overcome her rock bottom and why she still chooses to stay in the industry today.

The crossover episode we’ve all been waiting for!! Janet from Asian Boss Girl and Minji from First of All join us this week to talk about all the times they’ve had to hit the restart button. From changing industries to bad break ups to moving cities, everyone has had to start over. How do you know when it’s time to take a risk and pursue a different path without feeling you’re falling behind? Transitions take a lot of self reflection and self motivation that more often than not leads to self doubt, so how do we use this time for self discovery rather than self destruction?

Triggers. We all have them and yet most times we're unaware of them. They have a way of creeping up on us, catching us off guard, and evoking the strongest emotions in us ranging from intense sadness to deep rooted anger. When left unaddressed, they wreak havoc in not only our lives but the lives of everyone around us as well #triggerstrigger So how do we find our triggers? Where do we even start? How do we learn to let go of something that has dictated our feels for so long? This week, we dive deep into our personal triggers and learn to address them one by one. It can take years to truly understand how deep our triggers run, but by slowly identifying them, we can learn to set them free.

Women are catty. Women get jealous of each other. Women hate other women. These were narratives that were written for us before we even had the chance to decide for ourselves - it’s no surprise when we constantly feel pitted against one another. But what if it didn’t have to be that way? This week we talk about the importance of women supporting women. In a world where we are taught that if another women succeeds, we have failed, how do we change our perception of what female empowerment truly means? How do we get from hating on other women to genuinely cheering our sisters on and uplifting one another? Is it possible to truly be happy for other women without having that define our own success?

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? Will that bring us actual fulfillment? How do we learn to be confident from within and trust our own truths? Follow us on social!

Our 20's can be a super confusing and frustrating time. It's no wonder that 80% of us go through a quarter life crisis where we're trying to make sense of things. Where are we going? Are we moving fast enough? Which path is the "right" path? Am I making the "right" decisions to get to where I want/should be at in 5, 10 years? This week we bring on our amazing, extremely talented, and super punny girlfriend, Jenn Le who is currently going through her quarter life crisis. We go through the different phases of any crisis and reflect on what is it that we're searching for. Follow Jenn - Instagram: @_jdle Follow us on social!

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!

You’ve been good friends up until this point. They’ve been there for you…kind of…they’ve got your back…kind of…they've...wait..things are starting to not add up. Toxic friendships usually fly under the radar, it creeps up on you, the manipulation increases, and soon you lose sight of what’s true or false. Are we truly friends? Do real friends treat each other that way? And why do I feel mentally and emotionally exhausted from this friendship?! This week, we dive into the signs and red flags that you can pick up on if you’re in a toxic friendship/relationship and what you can do about it.

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. Are we all capable of opening ourselves up to love or are some of us wired differently? Follow us on social!

Online dating has taken the internet by storm. The endless options and judgement that goes into swiping can be extremely overwhelming, and you either come out with a slew of awful dating stories or you find your happily ever after. This week, Regina introduces Christine to the world of online dating + apps by walking Christine through decoding profile pictures, the red flags of hidden messages, and the dos and dont's of modern dating.

What separates a career from a hobby? Can you pursue what you love and make a career out of it? Do you keep your hobby a hobby so you can fully enjoy it without the pressures of making it a business? What if you want to start a business from something that started off as a hobby? This week we chat about the two different mentalities when it comes to work: chasing your passion or working purely to make a living. There's so much doubt when it comes to what're doing with our lives and how we should prioritize - on one hand, we are taught to chase what we love, the other, that work is work, do what you have to do and save play for later. So which path will you take? Follow us on social!

Friends fight, and we did too. The conversation becomes uncomfortable, emotions are flowing everywhere, and in the heat of the moment, it seems like this could be the end of what you thought was a lasting friendship. So how do you determine whether the friendship is worth pursuing? Can you even recover from a fight? This week, we talk about the fight we had, what led up to it, how it happened, and why we decided our friendship was worth fighting for. Follow us on social!
