  • Episode 24: From Figure Skater to 2x Founder - Eleanor Mooney on the Cost of Always Holding It Together
    Dec 18 2025

    Send us a text

    Eleanor Mooney grew up between two worlds - a white father and a Filipina mother who worked in hospitality, where kindness and service weren’t just values, they were survival.

    As a kid in Massachusetts, she watched her mother remember everyone’s name, favorite drink, and story - even as people sometimes dismissed her accent or heritage. That early contrast shaped Eleanor’s life mission: to make people feel seen, included, and cared for.

    Years later, she carried that same warmth into business. After building a career in luxury retail, she founded deVivre Concierge, a lifestyle service for New York’s elite, and Verdant, a lingerie brand designed for women in motion. But as her companies grew, the habit of over-giving, inherited from both culture and family, began to catch up with her.

    One night, while answering a client email at dinner, Eleanor had a panic attack that forced her to pause.
    That moment became a turning point, not away from ambition, but toward awareness.

    In this episode, we explore:
    · Growing up biracial and learning belonging through service
    · How Filipino hospitality shaped her leadership and empathy
    · The thin line between generosity and overextension
    · Rebuilding boundaries without losing compassion
    · Designing lingerie - and a life - that’s truly made for women, not for the gaze

    “You can’t take care of others if you’re not taking care of yourself.”

    🎧 Listen to this episode if you’ve ever been taught that saying yes makes you worthy, and you’re ready to learn that peace can be productive too.

    Nov 27 2025

    Send us a text

    Jason Lim has lived life in the fast lane, quite literally.

    From leading social media at Netflix Southeast Asia and helping ONE Championship grow from zero to millions of followers, to co-founding Stratgeist, one of the region’s top digital agencies, he’s been at the center of Asia’s attention economy for over a decade.

    But behind his adrenaline-filled life, from skydiving and scuba diving to scaling startups, lies a deeper story about mastering fear, learning self-awareness, and redefining what it means to win.

    After a near-fatal car crash, Jason experienced crippling anxiety that forced him to rebuild his mental strength from the ground up. What began as survival became transformation, teaching him that courage isn’t the absence of fear, but the mastery of it.

    In this episode, we unpack:
    · Why self-awareness is the real foundation of entrepreneurship
    · How to stay calm in chaos, in business, and in life
    · What it means to “build while falling off a cliff”
    · How gratitude, not hustle, became Jason’s new metric of success

    “Courage is not the absence of fear. It’s the mastery of it.”

    🎧 Listen to this episode if you’ve ever felt like success alone wasn’t enough and wanted to find the calm within the climb.

  • Episode 21: From Malay Minority to Tech Founder - How Hafiz Built a Multi-Million-User Startup Beyond the Hustle
    Nov 13 2025

    Send us a text

    When you meet Hafiz Kasman, you don’t feel hustle. You feel a presence.

    Hafiz grew up in a lower-middle-class Malay family in Singapore, where stability was prized and risk-taking came second. He started his career as a management consultant — a path few from his background dared to walk. But at 25, he did something bold: he left it all to build Kinobi, an ed-tech platform helping students across Asia navigate their careers.

    In just a few years, Hafiz and his team grew Kinobi to reach hundreds of thousands of users across the region and earned a spot on Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia. But what’s more striking than the numbers is Hafiz’s mindset — calm, grounded, and deeply intentional.

    In this episode, we explore:
    · What it means to succeed as a Malay founder in Singapore’s startup scene
    · How to build for purpose, not validation
    · The invisible privilege of inner peace

    “I don’t mind starting from scratch. My lifestyle was humble from the start — I can go back to that anytime I want.”

    🎧 Listen to this episode if you’ve ever wondered how to build without burning out, and still win.
