"活在當下, 體驗工作, 為身邊的人和自己帶來意義”This episode is worth listening to just for Leo’s late-night FM DJ voice! We certainly had a lot of fun recording this episode xD Leo is a very fun person to talk to, making lots of jokes. In this episode we explored what shaped Leo as a person he is today, his early career choices and encounters, his attitude towards work-life integration, and how we should approach our career. At the end he made a pretty dangerous comment that might jeopardise his marriage :O Hope you enjoy :)(1:55) Early career and experiences in voice acting(14:59) What are your proudest moments in voice acting?(16:39) Obstacles and difficult times in your voice acting career?(27:00) On a scale of 1-10 - How would you rate your career?

“希望大家可以喺百忙之中搵到自己小小嘅天地, 小小嘅空間”Hey guys! First and foremost, please join us in congratulating Grace and Greg 🎊 When we were recording this episode, their second daughter was still on its way. Now we are happy and grateful that Ember has arrived. Together with their first daughter Edna, we wish them a blessed and happy family!!Yes, it's mid-August 🤦🏻‍♂️ Apologies for the long wait. It's hard to assign chunks of time for editing with a full time job and commitments to studying. But hey here we are at last.In this episode, we have Gregory Siu. Now a certified Stretching Instructor, Gregory used to be a nobody in a large corporate body. His desire for meaning and influence triggered a very important decision that he made - leaving the corporate world and pursuing something he’s passionate about. Apart from the career change, he also revealed both the active and the sentimental side of himself, sharing with us how much he loves his family, and his biggest regret in life. As always, please enjoy!Gregory's profile (蕭偉傑 Siu Wai Kit; Kit Sir): - WebsiteHong Kong Pain Free Exercise Center (香港舒痛運動中心): - Website- Facebook page Hong Kong Stretching Exercise Association (香港伸展運動學會):- Website- Facebook page***Remember to follow us on Instagram: @furtherance.lifeFollow Ben: Instagram: @ben.h.auTwitter: @BenHauSurgeryLinkedIn: benhauWebsite: benhau.comFollow Gary: Instagram: @garyto.lifeFacebook: @garytocoachWebsite: garyto.lifeGary's music studio: Music Essence*** Attributions: Easy Lemon (30 second) by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3695-easy-lemon-30-second-License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseEasy Lemon (60 second) by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3696-easy-lemon-60-second-License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license     

"唔好俾人地覺得啱嘅嘢去操控你"Welcome back peeps!  This was a spontaneous, honest conversation between the three of us that went for over an hour. Editing this episode was challenging. I listened through our conversation at least twice myself. We inspire each other and end up with a list of things to reflect on each time we talk. Today, we talked about what's new in our lives - our new adventures, experiences, processes, mindset, purpose, goals, and worries. How should we set our goals and measure our progress? How do we deliver a positive influence in work? We also revisited the concept of work-life integration. Isaac also brought in a new term "slasher" into our dictionary. Lastly, we talked about the long-overdue and underrated topic of relationships. As always, please enjoy!(3:06) Updates in life - our new adventures, experiences, processes, mindset, purpose, goals, and worries. How should we set our goals and measure our progress?

Hey guys! I've been pushing myself to have this episode ready within two weeks from the last, and I'm glad that I'm ahead of schedule :D This episode we have a special guest, someone with a career you might not have heard of. His name is Erwin Chan, an Occupational Psychologist, a career coach and consultant, and co-founder of Expivotal Consultancy. He has a big mission to help all of us escape the mundane 9-5 life, to find meaning and success in our work, relationships, and lives. What he wanted to do didn't exist in Hong Kong, so he built a start-up from scratch. It's important to have balance in life, where all the forces work together to keep your "life-pendulum" in place. Only then can we have true "work-life integration". We were inspired so much in our conversation, and I hope you do too. Enjoy :)Follow Erwin: - LinkedIn:  erwin-chan Expivotal Consultancy:- Instagram: @expivotal_workpsyc- Website: expivotal.com***Remember to follow us on Instagram: @furtherance.lifeFollow Ben: Instagram: @ben.h.auTwitter: @BenHauSurgeryLinkedIn: benhauWebsite: benhau.comFollow Gary: Instagram: @garyto.lifeFacebook: @garytocoachWebsite: garyto.lifeGary's music studio: Music Essence*** Attributions: Easy Lemon (30 second) by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3695-easy-lemon-30-second-License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseEasy Lemon (60 second) by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3696-easy-lemon-60-second-License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license   

Hey peeps, episode 5! It's been four weeks since the last episode. I really hope to dedicate more time to editing so we can achieve an episode every fortnight - let's see how it goes! This episode we have Florence. She is a nurse in a public hospital in Hong Kong. We met in the same team we used to work with. She shared with us what made her decide to go to nursing school, what she thinks now, and how she's dedicated to delivering warmth to her patients and people around her. As a side hustle, she runs a bakery with her friend - Feels Like Home. Their mission is to remind all of us what it means to be alive, to remind us to live in the moment. Please enjoy.
