Thoughts Across The Ocean: Recent Episodes
Thoughts Across The Ocean
Ever wonder if people have authentic and genuine conversations anymore? Wouldn’t it be nice to know that there are others across the ocean seeking that same feeling and connection? That there are others who want to talk about their fears, ideas, excitement, frustrations and thoughts — about anything and everything!
So, let's talk about and be a part of our journey as we unfold our Thoughts Across The Ocean!
With the Philippine election looming in! We have invited a few friends from the Philippines to talk about why they’re so passionate about the coming election.
We want to announce that this episode is a bit longer and is done in Filipino and English, to really embody our sense of diversity.
In this episode, we talk about why this election is so different from the previous ones, why so many people are so vocal and why many have really stepped up their involvement. Where is this passion coming from?
All across the country, or even all across the globe, we see Filipinos really proving what it means to be a Filipino – those who care for one another, those who offer talents and capabilities, those who give help and support willingly. So many people have given so much effort and time, at their own freewill and expense, to passionately support.
Now, the Philippines have an important decision to make. With exactly 1 week to go, let us remind ourselves what it really means to be a Filipino. We all have an important decision to make, may you be a voter or not, it’s vital for us to show how much we care for the country. The people’s decision can change the entire course of the Philippines' future and it is up to us, it's always been up to us to decide our country’s fate.

Fear always gets in the way for us to achieve our goals. We have to realize that although fear can work against us, it can also work to benefit us. Instead of thinking of fear as something that holds us back, we have to treat it as our catalyst for motivation in order for us to achieve our goals. However, to get there we must first overcome those fears.
In this episode, we talk about different kinds of fear that may or does hinder our very own success. We share those fears that hold us back and with the expertise of Geoff Seow, Founder of MindAxis Life Coaching, we get some helpful insights on how to overcome them and understand how we should recognize and face it.
If this episode helped you in any way, give Geoff Seow a follow on his social media accounts, maybe you're looking for some advice and have a chat - https://linktr.ee/mindaxislifecoaching

Do you ever feel like people expect you to be a certain way based on cultural norms, gender norms, and stereotypes?
In this episode, we share our personal thoughts and experiences on expectations placed on us by our families, society, and ourselves. We discuss how those expectations affect our upbringing, how they form us as adults, and how we can put a positive spin on them.
Share any expectations that shape who you are and who you want to be. We’re definitely interested to hear what you guys have to say!

We often wonder, especially as we mature, if there are any lessons we have encountered now that we can offer to our younger self?
In this episode, that’s exactly what we talk about. And, when we say advice, it’s not to dwell on the past, to regret what has already been done or beat yourself up over a stupid mistake. But, if you had the choice to have a do-over what advice would YOU say to yourself?
Start a conversation with us and let us know. We’re definitely interested to hear what you guys have to say!

2 months later… We are finally back with a brand new episode!
In this episode, we wanted something light to start it off again after a long break. So, here we talk about SUPERPOWERS!
Since the Batman movie was just released, it was a great idea to talk about what superpower we think would fit our personalities… or something we’d enjoy using. We also share what we think the best superpower would fit one another. Lots of laughs on this one definitely!
And, we’re curious… What superpower do you think you’d want to have?

Every start of the year we always hear the saying – “New Year, New Me”. We think that revolves mainly on the idea that we have to have some sort of New Year’s Resolution to give our year a kickstart!
In this episode, we share some of our resolutions that we had for last year and this year. However, not everyone really believes in resolutions, rather, goals we want to attain whether it be this year or in the long term.
What about you – do you believe in setting a New Year’s Resolution for the year? Or are you the type to say, these are my goals and I’m gonna accomplish them!

First of all, we’d like to wish everyone listening to the podcast a Merry Merry Christmas! We are so grateful for those of you who are always tuning in and never missing an episode.

For the past month we were unable to share our thoughts and record our episode. And oh man, did we miss it!
We were also planning for the next step of the podcast for 2022. So, we decided to make this in a 2-in-1 kind of episode. In this episode, we talk about taking risks and if you keep listening ‘til the end -- you’ll find out the big reveal!
Here are some of the main points we discuss:
- Are you a risk taker?
- The excuses of taking risks
- Not looking back and regret
- Jumping in the unknown
- How far are you willing to go?
- Announcing the plan for 2022
We hope this made up for that one week we missed last month. We will be waiting and excited to hear from all of you. So, do not hesitate to share your thoughts and reach out to us!

This was pretty much a spontaneous episode and we decided to have it as our “Halloween Special”.
This was a lighter conversation compared to our previous and more serious life topics. We wanted to just talk about ghosts, mythical creatures, some horror stories, cultural beliefs and whatnot. You'll find that -- one of us has had experience and one of us is a skeptic.
What about you guys? What do you think?
Do they really exist?
Tell us your thoughts about this episode -- if you’re a skeptic or a believer of these entities. Share us your stories, we’re genuinely curious and would love to hear them! Reach out and connect with us on our social media accounts.

In this episode we talk about the most asked question as a kid in school “what do you want to be when you grow up?”. Did it not feel like it was something you had to know at a very young age? We reveal the three (3) professions we imagined ourselves doing; if anything has changed now that we’ve aged and if we are in pursuit of our goals & dreams -- then what’s stopping us from just going for it.
Here are some key points we talk about:
02:24 - What do you want to be when you grow up?
03:13 - A cookie!
06:41 - Story-telling of the Top 3 Professions as a young child.
14:38 - Funny how they’re similar because of the situation we’re in.
16:17 - Sometimes we become indecisive.
16:45 - Do we take this question for granted?
16:56 - But, life doesn’t work that way.
17:08 - You learn as you go.
17:24 - Redirection is not a waste of time.
17:47 - But, there’s always something that will keep holding you back.
18:16 - You hinder yourself!
18:36 - Everyone feels fear.
19:39 - The “what ifs” of a dream.
20:16 - It’s time to take the risk!
21:49 - Did anything change?
26:02 - The 5 Questions
34:48 - Motivational quote
