Sometimes the allure of working for yourself turns into just having a lot of bosses and you can end up getting burn out all over again. Lydia Lee walked down that path and learned how to put her life first, despite some interesting obstacles (there's a literal exploding toilet), and build her business around her life, instead of trying to squeeze her life into what's left over from work. She set up shop in Bali and started the Screw the Cubicle blog while serving clients around the globe, and now travels around the world. If you'd like more freedom in your business and your life, learn from Lydia's approach to creating a business that works for you, instead of you working for it. And if this business is a relationship business, that means it's a conversation business, and you'll want to use Mimiran as an "anti-CRM" to hone in on your ideal clients-- the people you want to invest your limited time with-- and stay in touch with them.

What do you do when you have a breakdown after working for a tyrant of a boss… but the boss is you?  That happened to this week's guest Lydia Lee, who we spoke to in Bali where she spends half her year. It turns out that a breakdown like that is a real wake up call.  Now Lydia coaches mid-career professionals who are looking for something different from the rest of their work life.   This is a great conversation about building the work life you want to live with; not a bigger career or a smaller career, just the right one for you.  We talk about entrepreneurship, delegating work, running a 1-person company, who to work with and how to repell the kinds of people you want to avoid.   More than anything we talk about being deliberate with the choices you make about you're work life.

Everything I Never Told You ist der Debütroman der amerikanischen Autorin Celeste Ng, die vor dessen Veröffentlichung im Jahr 2014 bereits Kurzgeschichten schrieb, für die sie diverse Auszeichnungen erhielt. Ng studierte Englisch und Kreatives Schreiben und ihr zweiter Roman Little Fires Everywhere dürfte hierzulande vielen auch deswegen bekannt sein, da er 2020 als Miniserie verfilmt wurde und auf einschlägigen Streaming Portalen zur Verfügung steht. 2016 wurde Was ich euch nicht erzählte, für das sie ebenfalls mehrere Auszeichnungen erhielt, ins deutsche übersetzt und im dtv Verlag veröffentlicht.Der Roman mutet zunächst wie ein Krimi an. Ein Mädchen ist verschwunden. Wir wissen, dass es sich um Lydia Lee handelt, die 16-jährige Tochter von Marilyn und James Lee, Schwester von Nathan und Hannah Lee. Und wir wissen ebenfalls, im Gegensatz zu den Protagonisten, dass Lydia tot ist. Eine Tatsache, die überhaupt das Erste ist, was der Leser erfährt. Als schließlich ihre Leiche gefunden wird – sie ist in einem See nahe des Hauses ertrunken – beginnt die Suche nach den Gründen oder Verantwortlichen, nach dem Warum, die Ng als Instrument nutzt, um ein Familienportrait zu entfalten und das Innenleben der Beteiligten frei zu legen.James Lee, der Vater der Familie und selbst Sohn chinesischer Einwanderer, strebt sein Leben lang nach gesellschaftlicher Anerkennung und hegt vor allem den Wunsch, durch Anpassung dazuzugehören und nicht ständig, aufgrund seiner Herkunft, ausgegrenzt zu werden. Während seiner Tätigkeit als Professor an der Harvard University lernt er Marilyn kennen, die zunächst seine Studentin ist und sich gerade aufgrund dessen, dass James nicht wie alle anderen ist, von ihm angezogen fühlt. Marilyn selbst möchte Ärztin werden und nichts stößt sie mehr ab, als die Vorstellung, wie ihre Mutter zu enden und ihre Tage als Hausfrau zu verbringen – eine Rolle, die sie verachtet.Doch als sie James kennenlernt, ist das Folgende geradezu eine selbsterfüllende Prophezeiung. Die beiden verlieben sich ineinander und Marilyn wird schwanger, woraufhin die beiden heiraten und Marilyn ihr Studium unterbricht, immer in der Hoffnung, es in ein paar Jahr wieder aufnehmen und zu Ende bringen zu können. Doch es kommt nicht so weit. Erst bringt sie Lydia zur Welt, die das Lieblingskind wird und später Nathan. Als Marilyn bewusst wird, dass sie nicht weiter von der Erfüllung ihres Traums Ärztin zu werden entfernt sein könnte und durch den Tod ihrer Mutter, der ihr schmerzlich bewusst macht, wie sehr sie ihr schließlich doch ähnelt, trifft sie eine folgenschwere Entscheidung und verlässt ihren Mann und ihre Kinder, um ihr Studium doch noch zu beenden. Als sie jedoch nach neun Monaten merkt, dass sie erneut schwanger ist, ist damit auch der letzte Versuch gescheitert und sie kehrt zu ihrer Familie zurück.Die in der Vergangenheit erlebten Enttäuschungen und Rückschläge der Eltern werden schließlich maßgeblich für deren Erziehung, getragen von dem Wunsch, dass es ihre Kinder besser haben mögen als sie selbst und nach dem Klischee, in dem Eltern durch ihre Kinder ihre eigenen unerfüllten Träume ausleben. Stets jedoch fest daran glaubend, dass es das Beste für ihre Kinder sei und sie es einmal besser haben würden. Geradezu quälend erscheinen dabei die Interaktionen zwischen Lydia und ihrer Mutter Marilyn. Lydia, die geprägt ist von der Angst um den Verlust ihrer Mutter – aufgrund ihrer neun monatigen Abwesenheit – hat es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, den Anforderungen ihrer Mutter um jeden Preis gerecht zu werden, um sie nie wieder zu verlieren. Dabei handelt sie entgegen ihrer eigenen Interessen, gibt vor, sich über jedes weitere wissenschaftliche Buch, das ihr geschenkt wird, zu freuen und ist auch zunehmend von Gleichaltrigen isoliert, zu denen sie ohnehin nur schwer Zugang findet.Während sich Marilyn für ihre Tochter nichts sehnlicher wünscht, als dass sie eines Tages Ärztin wird, wünscht sich ihr Vater – selbst stets Außenseiter gewesen – für sie, dass sie viele Freunde findet und, im Gegensatz zu ihm, integriert wird. Sätze wie: „»Versprich mir«, sagte er, »dass du mit allen auskommst. Freunde kann man nie genug haben.« machen gleichermaßen traurig wie wütend, denn sie symbolisieren, wie einsam sein eigenes Leben gewesen ist und auch, dass es ihm weniger um die Befriedigung ihrer denn seiner Bedürfnisse geht. Ihr Bruder Nathan ist ihr einziger Verbündeter, der sie auffängt und versteht, unter welch hohem Erwartungsdruck sie leidet. Doch auch die Beziehung zu ihm gerät allmählich ins Wanken, denn während Lydia sämtliche Aufmerksamkeit ihrer Eltern zuteil wird, wird ihm kaum Beachtung geschenkt. Von seinem Vater James wird Nath abgelehnt, denn er erkennt sich zu sehr in seinem Sohn wieder, was Naths Eifersucht auf seine Schwester nur noch befeuert und seinen Wunsch, endlich von zu Hause ausziehen zu können und in Harvard zu studieren, wo er sich seinem Ziel – der Raumfahrt – nähern kann, noch vergrößert. Hannah, die jüngste Tochter, scheint für die anderen Familienmitglieder fast gar nicht zu existieren. Allein ihr Zimmer, auf dem Dachboden, wirkt wie eine Metapher für ihre randständige Position innerhalb der Familie. Dass kaum jemand das Wort an sie richtet, sie sich meist versteckt und aus sicherer Entfernung beobachtet, was um sie herum vor sich geht, bestärken dies nur noch.Allmählich entfaltet Celeste Ng die einzelnen Charaktere vor dem geistigen Leserauge und geht dabei der Frage nach dem Warum von Lydias Tod auf den Grund. Die Geschichte, die daraus entsteht, ist jedoch viel schmerzhafter, als die tragische Mutter-Tochter-Beziehung, die davon beherrscht wird, dass die Eine für die Andere etwas möchte, was sie selbst nicht haben konnte. Während Marilyns unbedingter Traum Ärztin zu werden und sich von anderen abzuheben platzt, lebt sie selbst weiter in Ressentiments und Vorurteilen, denen sie entkommen wollte. So begegnet sie im Krankenhaus einer Ärztin, die sie für eine Krankenschwester hält und bedient damit selbst das Klischee, dass Arzt gleich männlich ist. Aber auch das Thema Rassismus ist entscheidend für die Entwicklung ihrer Charaktere und Grund für die Einsamkeit, die wir in ihnen immer wieder erkennen können. Vor allem an James und seinem unbedingten Wunsch sich zu integrieren, anzupassen und dazuzugehören wird dies deutlich. Ein Wunsch und vielleicht auch gleichzeitig Trauma, das er an seine Kinder weitergibt und eine Tatsache, die, so vermute ich, auch der Autorin selbst nicht fremd sein dürfte, ist sie doch selbst das Kind chinesischer Einwanderer. Und so ist die Geschichte auch immer wieder bestimmt von Rückblenden, die die Anfänge der Eltern in den USA beleuchten.Was ich euch nicht erzählte, beschreibt nicht nur auf feinfühlige und komplexe Art und Weise wie schwer das Nicht-Gesagte wiegt, sondern auch, wie jeder um seinen Platz in der Gesellschaft, der Familie oder Beziehungen kämpft und dabei vor allem oft mit sich selbst. Es geht nicht nur darum, sich selbst zu finden, sondern auch darum, anderen Raum zu lassen und sie nicht mit Erwartungen zu erdrücken. Es geht um Betrug und Ablehnung als Reaktion darauf, dass man sich genau das Gegenteil wünscht, ebenso wie um Alltagsrassismus und Integration. Das Portrait einer Familie, in der jeder mit sich selbst um etwas ringt, eingebettet in den Tod eines Familienmitglieds und den Wunsch, die Gründe dafür zu erfahren. Eine Innenansicht verschiedener Personen und deren Beweggründen, die Celeste Ng eindrucksvoll gelungen ist und mitunter auch wütend macht. Einzig das Ende erscheint mir angesichts der vorgefallenen Geschehnisse etwas zu euphemistisch, wenn es auch kein gutes Ende im klassischen Sinne ist. Aber ich nehme es als Symbol, dass Dinge sich zum Guten wenden können und Veränderung möglich ist. This is a public episode.

Hi! In this episode of Chinese Food Fight Club, we check in with Lydia and Leo Lee, the mom-and-pop team behind Cantonese barbecue restaurant RiceBox in downtown Los Angeles. Lydia and Leo Lee opened RiceBox in 2018 and quickly turned their tiny restaurant into a game-changing standard-bearer for contemporary Cantonese barbecue, including what Los Angeles magazine named as the city's best char siu in 2020. The success of RiceBox involves a family recipe from a Hong Kong restaurant that Lydia's grandfather owned. But the restaurant's ascension is also largely due to Leo's cooking experience and creativity, which has led to innovations like merging Cantonese roast pork with porchetta. Leo was born and raised in Mexicali, Mexico, where his parents had a Chinese restaurant. He then graduated from The Culinary Institute of America in New York and worked at the Patina Restaurant Group in LA before opening RiceBox with Lydia, who grew up in Hong Kong and Vancouver. The Lees are also new parents, who had their son, Ari, during the pandemic. Chinese Food Fight Club is a multimedia platform and consultancy inspired by a dining club created by Andy Wang and Danica Lo at Legend in New York City in 2011. Our mission is to connect the Chinese-American community with other Asian communities while amplifying the stories of Asian and Asian-American creators, chefs, artists, activists, policy-makers, technologists, entrepreneurs, and small businesses.

The Truth Prescription

Play Episode Listen Later Mar 1, 2021 47:15


Good people,Joining me today is Lydia Lee, career change coach and meaningful work advocate. She guides corporate employees transitioning from a 9 to 5 job to a business they love, based on their strengths, values, and personality. Originally from Malaysia, Lydia and her parents moved to Canada, looking for a brighter financial future. She grew up in Vancouver, where she was very successful in the corporate world; Lydia worked as a business developing manager, project sales coordinator, marketing specialist, and the list goes on. After suffering a burnout during a business trip that ended with her flying on an emergency flight back home, Lydia started thinking about meaning and purpose in life. Lydia's truth is about realizing there is no connection between success and overworking herself. Being a humble family in a foreign country, Lydia's parents planted on her the seed of working twice as hard to be considered worthy of an opportunity. That mandate of overproducing led Lydia into a path of exhaustion, including long years of work without a single vacation break that made her reconsider her life choices and eventually inspired her "Screw the cubicle" idea. Some Questions I Ask:Tell my listeners something either in your personal, professional life where you had a breakthrough after accepting something real about yourself. (4:43)You gave me three truths here. Listen to your body. Don't follow a script or somebody else's script for your life. And then, success is not overworking. Tell me which one you feel is the most prominent. (11:49)Did you decide to move to Bali as part of a plan to live in a country that allows you more financial flexibility? Do you recommend that to clients? Put yourself up financially first, and then figure the next move? (13:00)If you were to choose a movie theme that identifies your process of helping people transition from corporate to out of the cubicle into the entrepreneur partnership, what would that theme be? (29:03)In This Episode, You Will Learn:We can't separate personal from working life (5:05)Where following someone else's path can take us (10:05)You can get out of the cubicle; still, the cubicle might follow you (12:21)Waiting for the right moment could take forever (15:47)The difference between bringing the goal with us and going after it (23:40)Reinvention happens more than once in a lifetime (29:09)Yes or BS:The cubicle is a safe space (35:12)Pineapples are the best fruit to eat with meat (37:53)All business can be location independent (38:37)Freedom is not a destination (40:01)Talents and gifts are the same (40:57)Lydia Lee is going to run out and get the COVID-19 vaccine (43:39)Resources:Screw the Cubicle websiteConnect with Lydia:LinkedInYouTubeInstagram See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Today’s episode of Success Road features Lydia Lee. Lydia is the founder of http://screwthecubicle.com (Screw The Cubicle), a movement to inspire people to break free from the shackles of conventional work. Lydia works with talented professionals who want to repurpose their skills towards a more meaningful career. Lydia’s Story Of Becoming A Business Owner Lydia did not plan on changing careers. In 2012, she experienced a really bad health scare during a business trip in Russia. She had a nervous breakdown and wasn’t able to leave her hotel room for several days. It was during this time that she realized that she wanted more freedom and balance in her life. She did not like bureaucracy and politics. At first, she repackaged herself as a consultant, and her previous employer was her first client. This kind of business is what Lydia calls a low-hanging fruit transition business. Her current business, Screw The Cubicle, was kind of a bit of an accident. It was a blog that she started when she was struggling with her job. And it was also sort of a resource and a place that she would send her mother, friends, and colleagues. Now, seven years later, this is her primary business and is something that she absolutely enjoys. Common Challenges For Potential Business OwnersLydia says that many people know what they want to do for a business, but they often get tripped up when they ask, ”What’s the next step?” Often the moment someone starts to think too much into the future, the brain starts to imagine all sorts of consequences for quitting their day job.  Another issue is that as humans we want to belong. We want to be liked. So when someone switches careers, after having been in a different career for 15-20 years, and it is common to have your identity tied to your career. So, in many cases, the first challenge is a shift of identity when you pursue something different. The second obstacle is that it can be hard to imagine other ways to use your skills. Because we are busy living our lives, it's really hard to kind of step out of our own bodies, and observe. We need perspective. We are too close to the situation. It’s hard to think of new opportunities and to be creative when you are focused on the status quo.  Some Common Self Sabotaging HabitsAs you know, we live in a modern digital age. Rarely do we need more information. If anything, we often have too much information. In many cases, the bigger obstacle is getting out of our own way. That sounds sort of simpler, but I think that is actually a great place to take that reflection.  While there are many benefits to technology, it can often become a distraction. When we're about to make a life change, a lot of times we find ourselves browsing online or scrolling, as we look for inspiration. But that inspiration can quickly turn into comparison as we look at other people's lives or other people's businesses. Online, we often put our best profile out there. We're never talking about bad days on Instagram. It is really easy to feel like a loser when we compare ourselves to others.  Lydia also expands more on these concepts and shares why it is so important to not compare our beginnings with someone else’s progress. I highly recommend you listen to the full episode for more details. In addition, you can connect with Lydia on http://screwthecubicle.com (her website). Lydia offers some resources that will help you if you want to start or business or if you just feel unsatisfied in your career.  Thanks so much for listening to Success Road, and special thanks to Lydia for being a guest.

Gabi Macra was a top Canadian basketball player that never really thought about the "life after basketball" before dealing with a major injury towards the end of her college career. Instead of following any sort of traditional path, she headed East to Japan where she came to teach English. She loved her experience there and now reflects on the immense value of learning how to teach and coach others helped her in the following years. Instead of heading back to Canada, she headed to London where she had a successful career and journey as an actuary. She was a leader in her company but reached a point where she was dealing with health challenges and finding that her career was no longer giving her the fulfillment that it once was. She ended up deciding to take some time off and told her boss that she was leaving. However, she ended up staying another 18 months as she helped the team transition with some other internal changes. Just knowing she was leaving enabled her to approach everything completely different and think about how she could best serve her team while also taking care of her own health. She finally took the leap in 2018 and after several months of sabbatical, including some time in Bali, she realized that becoming a Yoga Therapist was something she was ready to commit to over the next few years. While preparing for that program, she also created a learning internship for herself in London (stealing this from Lydia Lee's podcast episode!) by taking 8 people interested in Yoga and creating a customized program for them. Her only goals: to learn a ton about how she can serve people and learn what to do next. What we covered: Her drive and motivation as a basketball player Her experience living and working in Japan after university Starting her actuarial career and what she enjoyed about work Becoming successful but questioning her role as a successful worker as the center of her life Her decision to take a sabbatical and leave the company (and how she ended up staying for 18 months but doing so with a completely different mindset) Her recent creative projects, "learning experiments" and decision to start a long-term Yoga therapist training program Links Instagram: Gabi Macra and Real People Do Yoga Website: Real People Do Yoga For More Boundless: Consider supporting the podcast on Patreon Join The Reimagine Work Course Starting March 24th Join The Boundless Newsletter - Reimagining Work & Life
