The EntreAsians Podcast: Recent Episodes
Dale Ting
Rita Ng is an app programmer turned world traveling macaron business owner. She tells us about her current travel adventures before teaching us the secret to macron making with a rather interesting analogy. We also find out how her love of cooking and traveling led her to her current business, and how despite all the traveling it is also a lot of hard work. BONUS CONTENT: Rita swoons over bottarga, an Italian delicacy.
Courtney Pong is the owner and general manager of ComedySportz Boston. She performs improv comedy and trains people how to think on their feet. We talk about how she failed at theater, how to get your values "off the wall" and into people's heads, play an improv game, and how, like improv, sometimes it's better to say yes and go with it. Oh and how she lost her guts in Iowa.
Rebecca Okamoto retired - I mean graduated - from the corporate world after a 29 year career as a supply chain engineer. Rebecca turns the tables a bit and provides some mentorship and insights for me before talking about her career as a supply chain engineer at Procter and Gamble (P&G) and how she got excited about teaching personal branding after she left the corporate world. Stay for some great bonus discussion at the end on failure and how it's not that bad.
Ian So of Chicken and Rice Guys joins me from his car as the first ever EnterAsians podcast guest. We talk about Asian American presidential candidate Andrew Yang, the secret to entrepreneurship, buying a food truck off eBay, the hardest recipe to create in a chicken and rice dish (the white sauce), and his "why" for keeping Chicken and Rice Guys going when it would've been easier to shut it down.
Join me as I kick-off the long awaited very first episode of the EntreAsians podcast! I talk about how this whole thing got started with a Facebook group, how I got walked out of my corporate job, and a rundown of some of my own ventures.
