Thinking Twice is a post-grad life podcast from a multicultural lens. We will discuss the most common issues postgrads have to deal with, but with the consideration of different backgrounds. For multicultural grads, every life-changing decision they make, they will have to think about it twice; from their perspective, and their families/cultural perspective. We will feature different guests that have experienced some of the topics we will be discussing, such as dating, finance, health and wellness, etc.
