Becoming a parent has been the wildest crash course of my life. There’s the sleepless nights, the tiny socks, and the big thoughts—What am I shaping here? How much of our kids is nature, and how much is nurture?

Whether you're a parent, considering a mental health career, or just care about the next generation, I hope you find this conversation both reassuring and inspiring.

泰语小课堂 泰国人最常挂在嘴边的一句话就是：“ใจเย็น（jai yen）”，中文谐音是“哉焉”，意思是“冷静”或“心平气和”。其中，“เย็น”原意是“凉”或“冷”，引申为情绪上的冷静。为了加强语气，泰国人常常会重复这个词，变成“ใจเย็นๆ（jai yen yen）”，也就是我们常听到的“哉焉焉”，用来劝人冷静、不要着急。

上期节目中，嘉宾云蝶提到她南加州大学新闻学院的同学里，有人已经有了自己的电影制作公司。出于好奇，我火速联系到了这位名叫Balin Schneider的有为青年，发现他的电影之路，始于大学时的一次电影课作业，起初只想为自己喜欢的乐队——上世纪九十年代风靡芝加哥的强力流行摇滚组合Material Issue——拍一支短片，但没想到这一拍就拍了整整五年，最终成为了一部让他得以在电影界闪亮登场的长片。连片中的主人公——Material Issue仍在世的两位成员——都说：“Balin，我觉得你现在比我们自己都更了解我们的过去”。此后Balin便与该部纪录片的制作班底共同创立了一家电影工作室，一边给BlackPink、Ed Sheeran、Panic! at the Disco等音乐大咖拍片挣钱，一边继续为自己的严肃纪录片理想努力。我请他聊了聊他与电影的结缘、开公司的经历、在南加州大学新闻项目深造的体验，还有从美国中西部小镇搬到大城市洛杉矶打拼的心路历程。顺便还问了问他：除了像奈飞这类的流媒体和奥斯卡提名名单，我们还能从哪儿发掘值得一看的优质纪录片？
They Preserve Your Story Better Than You Do, with Documentarian Balin Schneider
When the power pop band "Material Issue" soared to stardom, Balin Schneider was just born. Yet it's as if he was right there in the crowd at their concerts, experiencing every beat and melody firsthand, after he spent several years making a documentary about the band’s ascent and downfall. What began as a short student project blossomed into a full-fledged feature film and a lifelong passion for filmmaking.
In this episode, Lulu talks with Balin Schneider, a LA-based documentary filmmaker/reporter/Executive Director of arvonia films. His first feature film, Out of Time: The Material Issue Story (https://www.arvoniafilms.com/outoftime) premiered at Sound Unseen Film Festival and played in theaters nationwide. He has directed projects with artists such as Gym Class Heroes, Panic! At The Disco, The Academy Is…, BLACKPINK, Cobra Starship and Ed Sheeran. He currently attends the University of Southern California (USC) for his Master of Arts in Specialized Journalism with a focus on International reporting. He has written for LAist, The 74 and his work has been featured in Forbes, Axios, Brooklyn Vegan and Pitchfork.
You’ll hear about: What inspired him to tell the story of a band that seems 'out of time'? What does it like to start one’s own film production company? Why might a filmmaker be interested in pursuing a journalism degree? Where can we discover good documentaries?

The Essence of Chongqing Hot pot, All in a Jar, with Hotpot Queen
For ethnic cuisines, navigating the balance between authenticity and adaptation can be tricky. While there’s a strong urge to stay true to the original recipe, compromises have to be made to appeal to the local palate. But Jia, the founder of a Chinese sauce brand called Hotpot Queen, doesn’t want to play it safe and aspires to bring the boldest Sichuan flavors to Americans’ plates — from sandwich to ice cream. Besides the unapologetic spiciness and numbness, her sauce has a secret element that adds a kick — the love and passion passed down through her mom and generations of Chongqing women.
In this episode, Lulu talks with Jia, the founder of Hotpot Queen, whose fiery personality tastes just like her sauces. You’ll hear about: * How do brands get the most out of Natural Products Expo West? * What are the top organic food trends for 2023? * What makes Hotpot Queen different from other hot sauce brands? * Which foods pair surprisingly well with hot sauce?

The Spice That Throws A Party in Your Mouth, with Yao Zhao
We never get tired of foods that give us a funny feeling. Like mustard that sends a shockwave through our skull. Like carbonated drinks with a playful fizz in every sip. It’s not necessarily the flavor that sets us on fire; it’s the sensation that does the magic. For those in the food industry, creating a sparkling sensory experience would be key to crafting a killer product. This is precisely what inspired Yao to start 50Hertz, a brand featuring the unique taste of Sichuan Pepper. Don’t mistake it for the fiery red chili pepper you typically see in a Sichuan dish; it’s the small round berry that hides in the plate.
In this episode, Lulu talks with Yao Zhao, the founder of 50Hertz Tingly Foods. They explore what makes Sichuan pepper special, how well it has been received in the US market, and how it can make mealtime more exciting.
You’ll hear about: * What was the founder’s ‘aha moment’? * What’s the science behind Sichuan pepper's buzz? * How did Yao get his early customers? * How did Yao get customers to repurchase? * What goes with Sichuan Pepper oil?
Not Your Average Asian Americans, with the Filmmakers of Unconditional
When the thirteen-year-old Zao first saw Margaret Cho’s standup comedy on TV, he was intrigued by her loud and unapologetic persona and wished to see more not-your-average Asians on stage and screen.
Later, Zao became a filmmaker himself and met Joyce, a producer who also aspires to debunk the model minority myth by creating more “irreverent” Asian characters. The two hit it off and went on making a proof-of-concept film to promote the idea. Joyce even brought Margaret on the cast and Zao was thrilled to work with his idol. Though the story is about an Asian American family, Zao and Joyce don’t think it’s ethnicity-based. It intends to address something universal, with the Asian idiosyncrasies being the cherry on the cake. And they’ve been working very hard to turn the short film into a full-length one…
In this episode, Lulu talks with Zao Wang (ins @zaowangfilm) and Joyce Liu-Countryman (ins @joyceliucountryman), the director and producer of the film Unconditional: A Family Guide to Hunting. They share their takes on breaking Asian stereotypes in the media.
You’ll hear about: * What’s their film about? * How to get a famous actress in your film * Why is funding for a film important? * How did Daniels make Everything Everywhere All At Once with Adobe? * Why do we love Everything Everywhere All At Once?

全球最大的视频网站YouTube上有这样一则“洗脑”广告，很多学生党都能将其全文背诵：“Writings not that easy, but Grammarly can help. This sentence is grammatically correct but its wordy and hard to read…”
Next time you proofread your writing, watch out for timidity — anything that sounds vague, indirect or hesitant unless you truly mean it. It's not just the grammar that matters, but the tone. As much of our communications have gone digital across text, emails and shared docs, it’s even more crucial to know how to add sparkle to what we write so that the readers would jump up and implement what we suggest.
This also raises the bar for online writing assistants —besides catching typos, those smart ones can even help tweak the tone of our writing, depending on whether we’d like to sound personable or professional.
In this episode, Lulu talks with Zachary, a perpetual creator / product marketing manager @Grammarly who shares how Grammarly has gone beyond fixing college essays and turned to revamping everyone’s everyday writing. As generative AI like ChatGPT takes the stage, could productivity tools like Grammarly still find their niche?
You’ll hear about:
* How could Grammarly attract two diametrically opposed groups of users?
* What is inbound and outbound marketing?
* How to avoid being a "solution in search of a problem"?
* Why should marketers diversity their digital ad spend?

When Charles M. Schulz, the creator of Peanuts comic strips, first learned a museum would be built for him, he wasn’t really up for it. Thankfully, he was later convinced it would be a huge treat for his fans to see his original drawings up close (and it truly is!) At Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center located in Santa Rosa, California, one could either indulge his comics craving, or stop by the cafe table where Schulz had been seated for 4 decades, eating his go-to tuna salad sandwich while conceiving the strip of the day. On the 100th anniversary of Schulz's birth, Lulu talks to Benjamin Clark (Twitter: @BLClark), a curator at Charles M. Schulz Museum / a book writer who authors "Charles M. Schulz: The Art and Life of the Peanuts Creator in 100 Objects". Like Schulz, Benjamin is also a Midwesterner who's got a great sense of art and humor.
You’ll hear about: * How the museum celebrates the centennial * What’s the curator’s favorite object from the collection? * What are some interesting facts about Charles M. Schulz? * Why is the Peanuts gang still poplar after so many years?

If there’s one thing that all human beings love, it's probably food. It nourishes our body, mind, and soul. For some, food is about desire, pleasure or taste. For others, it’s a creative outlet, and they even translate this passion into a career. Not necessarily a cook; there are many other niches in the market — food photography, recipe design, food styling and the list goes on. You may not realize it, but their work is everywhere — from the crispy-skinned, well-seasoned chicken wings on your food delivery app, to the medieval banquets or 19th-century dinner parties you see on the silver screen. Besides all the sweet perks, working with food is not always glamorous: it also calls for endurance, patience, and ability to work under pressure.
In this episode, Lulu talks with Marta Fowlie, a LA-based food-focused content producer who builds an online marketplace — Phoode to helps thousands of talents like her seek new clients. Ready to cook up something creative with her?
You’ll hear about: * How large is the food-focused creative economy, and what are the key drivers of its growth? * Which niches are trending? * How to stay competitive in the market? * A food photographer reveals her most challenging shots

This is the stereotype we have of pharmaceutical scientists: smart, isolated workaholic who spend most of their day in a laboratory. They have a clear roadmap for drug discovery. They are close to offering the world a new promising cure. In fact, scientists are also employees like you and me. They can feel stuck at work or struggle to collaborate. Besides studying compounds and organisms, they also seek to advance their career and step into leadership. That’s how the Learning & Development department (L&D) comes into play. Scientists help us learn and L&D help scientists learn.
In this episode, Lulu talks with Serene Yu, a L&D professional @AstraZeneca/life-long+life-wide learner/Christian/wife/idealist with a to-do list/not-quite Bostonian, who aspires to bring the joy of learning back to adulthood. To date, her team has delivered five innovative medicines approved for the treatment of seven rare diseases.
You’ll hear about:
* What is a rare disease?
* If rare diseases are so rare, why do they matter?
* How does L&D help pharmaceutical professionals navigate the drug discovery odyssey?
