Dissecting Life With Mike: Recent Episodes
Michael Owen
Building perspective can only happen from understanding multiple points of view. This podcast aims at helping people grow through reinterpreting the reality we experience.
This episode is a result of an article I read on the benefits of lowering your expectations as well as finding in yourself the thing you try to get from others.

In this episode, I talk about the three lessons that I have learned from growing 2 avocado trees over the past 2 years.
The lessons I learned are:
-
It is possible to outgrow your pot
-
Be mindful of the soil that you're in
-
Reaching your potential requires renewal
If you are a plant grower or like hearing development stories, this episode might be for you.

** This episode is raw, open, and unapologetic
Grace Yang from thegraceyang.com and I talk about Patriarchy, our own coming-of-age sexual experiences, and what we have learned from them.
Grace and I also explore the sexual expectations that come from her being an East Asian woman, and me being a Black male.
It's a fun episode. Come with an open mind.

In this episode, my friend Borin Chep and I dive deep into the makings of our identities. From being a Black American who's had to learn what his presence means in certain spaces, to my friend who is Second Generation Cambodian American, refugee, and Queer. Together, we reflect on how we got to the points where we currently stand.

Perfectionism, shame, and control play an essential role in our everyday lives from the encounters we have with people, the societal expectations that we place on one another, and especially how we internalize how we are supposed to be.
In today's episode, I have invited my friend Imagine to help us unpack and understand how exactly these three work together.
I would also like to celebrate her work in spiritual wellness, self-love, and liberation work.

There is an illusion and fantasy around marriage. People think once you get married, you've made it and everything will magically work out. In this episode, I talk with my good friend Joel Montoya about what a successful marriage looks like and counter some of the myths.

I told myself that I would release new content every Wednesday at 8 am CST. I didn't say the content would be perfect or fabulous. But I'm keeping my word and remaining consistent, even if it's a little sloppy.
