Descripción

Dads, do you feel supported at work? When CEO Xander Ong took the full 10 weeks of parental leave after the birth of his second child, he discovered lessons that extended far beyond parenting. Hosted by Michelle Martin, this conversation explores why so many fathers still leave parental leave untapped, what employers can learn from global best practices, and how supporting fathers may be one of the smartest investments organisations can make in wellbeing, productivity and human flourishing. Guest: Dr Xander Ong, CEO, Centre for Fathering. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

LIVE WELL WITH MICHELLE: Therme Singapore - Singapore's Newest Attraction Is Built on Wellbeing

Singapore has handed four hectares of rare waterfront land next to Marina Barrage to a wellbeing destination that breaks ground today.  Therme Singapore, opening in 2030, is a billion-dollar concept built not around shopping or spectacle, but around something harder to price: how people rest, connect and recharge. It's being called Asia's first large-scale social wellbeing development, weaving water, nature, culture and health into a single place. Michelle Martin sits down with the two men behind it - former National Development Minister and Therme Group Asia Chairman Mah Bow Tan, and Therme Group founder and CEO Robert Hanea. Together they ask why a city famous for planning decades ahead is now treating wellbeing as infrastructure and whether a billion-dollar development is being designed from ground up to feel like a space that's genuinely open to everyone.

MARKET VIEW: Why a Stock That Doubled Still Looks Cheap

Hosted by Michelle Martin, today's episode opens with a bold broker call: DBS sees 46% upside in Jardine Matheson and reckons the conglomerate's own targets are too modest. Closer to home, two SGX names to watch - Apac Realty and Lum Chang Creations. Then a genuine puzzle out of the US chip sector: Micron and SanDisk are having their best year ever, yet somehow screen cheaper than they did in February. In the daily UP or DOWN, Michelle runs through Intel's Trump-fuelled jump, Amazon's bid to take on Nvidia, SpaceX's bumpy market debut, and an Indian IPO that could hand early backers - Temasek among them - a 6,400-fold return. All wrapped before a quiet Juneteenth night on Wall Street. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

LIVE WELL WITH MICHELLE: Your Medicine is in Your Meal

Bloated after meals, wired on caffeine, drained on a full night's sleep - we've quietly agreed to call this "modern life." But what if small tweaks from a TCM perspective might help? This week, Michelle meets Joanna Wong, the bespoke TCM taste curator who left 30 years in corporate branding including 16 years at Eu Yan Sang, to do what most chefs wouldn't dare: slip Chinese herbs into fine dining, minus the bitter aftertaste. It's a conversation about digestion as the quiet engine behind your energy, focus and mood - and why what's on your plate may matter more than what's in your supplement drawer. The conversation is packed with small, intelligent shifts that let you eat well and feel well! See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
