Growing Sprouts
Cat & Tami
We’re two best friends based in SoCal, USA trying to navigate life and stretch out of our comfort zone. This podcast will share our non-traditional experiences as young, 2nd generation, Vietnamese American women just trying to figure things out. This will be a little bit of our therapy sessions to catch up with one another and share our experiences as we grow through life personally, professionally, etc. Join us in the journey of growth! -Cat & Tami
Mini Epi: Therapy recap w/ Tami - I'm not responsible for your feelings
Hi! Welcome back to Growing Sprouts Pod! It’s just me, Tami, today. I want to do these mini solo episodes to recap and remember my epiphany moments from therapy. Cat has just been busy and hopefully you’ll get an episode from both of us soon. Today's episode recaps on reconnecting to feel closer during busy seasons. Also through this example, I noticed a moment of anxiety that I had. Thanks for listening!

Let's dive into everything hobbies! What counts as a hobby? Is life more fulfilling with a hobby? Can you dislike and be bad at your hobby? Is it okay to have no hobbies? In this episode, Tami and Cat share their personal experiences and insight on hobbies and what their hobbies (or not hobbies) mean to them.

17. We can't be casual drinkers | social drinking, drinking over the years
It’s been many years since our hard liquor drinking days… but honestly we couldn’t drink that much to begin with. We now avoid shots like the plague. From liquor… to soju… to 5% or under drinks… we will share our current and past preferences. We also share some of our thoughts around drinking and how it has changed for us over the years. We’re definitely only social drinkers now and weak af. Spoiler alert: I (Tami)  definitely get Asian glow and my body does NOT like ingesting alcohol. If you enjoy our podcast, follow and rate us.
