In this episode, we are going to be talking with Sheena Yap Chan of the Tao of Self Confidence Podcast!
The Tao of Self Confidence Podcast is a show to boost the self confidence of Asian women. Spanning over 750 episodes (!!), Sheena has been on this amazing quest to share their voices, sharing their stories, vulnerabilities and lessons, to empower her listeners. I am personally a fan of Sheena, she has done so much for the Asian podcasting community. The first time I saw her name was when she wrote an ultimate list of Asian podcast! It was one of the influences in me starting this show.
We talk about:
- How she built over 750 compact, powerful episodes
- The factors that affect self-confidence in Asian women
- Her personal story in what compelled her to start podcasting
- Our thoughts on Asian identity
Enjoy the episode!
