HI GUYS! In this episode, we're getting real about the identity crisis that comes with being in-between as a 帰国子女— not for sympathy, but because we know some of you have felt this too.Growing up as a 帰国子女 (kikokushijo) may look glamorous from the outside, but nobody talks about what it actually felt like: the racism we faced in the States or the confusion of never fully belonging anywhere.Let us know in the comment below what you think!Hope you enjoy!WOOHOO!!

HI GUYS! We normally record in English, but this is a special all-Japanese episode! My cousin Jun, who was born and raised in Japan, joins us to break down the real differences between American and Japanese dating culture AND just how guys and girls think differently! 🇯🇵 What we cover:・How do "Reiwa-era" Japanese guys actually start dating, straight from a local's perspective?・We try to explain the American "talking phase" to my Japan-raised cousin lol・Hugging, physical affection: why it feels so different in the US vs Japan・Does spending change once you're "official"? Do couples share a wallet after marriage?・Who pays on birthdays, Christmas, and special occasions?It's a rare fully Japanese episode, great for Japanese learners who want to hear natural, unscripted conversation. As someone who spent 20+ years in LA, paired with my cousin Jun who's lived abroad, we dig into the cultural gaps most people never talk about!!📌 You'll like this if you're into:・Cross-cultural dating & relationships・Learning Japanese through real, native conversation・US vs Japan culture comparisons・How couples handle moneyHope you enjoy!WOOHOO!!

We dive into the pressure of chasing success, comparing ourselves to others, and how our definition of a "good life" changes as we grow older.We hope this conversation gives you something to think about.
