#7 Pt2 - EOY Review: fingers crossed, holding thumbs, knocking on woods

Hey there, welcome back! Here’s Part 2 of our EOY review, and the topic is relationships - all the tea is spilled! Anxious Kitty reflects on her previous relationship and how to traverse through the dating app minefield (and let’s just say, we’re so proud of her journey from the start of this podcast to now), and Shy Kitty end up in a long distance relationship…? Wonder how that happened… Tune in for the goss!

#7 Pt1 - EOY Review: fingers crossed, holding thumbs, knocking on woods

Hey there, welcome back! We know, we know – it’s 2025, and here we are with an EOY review, but hey, better late than never, right? In this special episode, Shy Kitty and Anxious Kitty finally caught up in person (back in November 2024, but who's counting?) to share some massive life updates. We dove into the big decisions that shaped our year, the concept of Circles of Influence, and our belief that hard work will pay off in the end. It’s been a whirlwind few months, but we’re excited to take you along for the ride. Here’s Part 1 of our reflective chat.

#6 - Mulan, but make it sociological

Hey there, welcome back! In this episode of HFTQG, we have the pleasure of hosting Dr. Christopher Fardan, who will be delving into one of my all-time favourite Disney classics, Mulan (1998), from a sociological perspective.  Through his analysis of the film, we'll discuss how topics like gender identity, societal expectations, and ethnicity/class conflicts are still relevant today. We'll explore similar experiences in life, and hopefully, by the end of this episode, you'll feel as empowered by Mulan's journey as we have.

#5 - Quiet girl with many facades: Lolita fashion and Entrepreneurial 101 with Maya

Hey there, welcome back! This month's HFTQG episode is thrilled to welcome Maya (@⁠frillypotato⁠) as our guest! This amazing young woman wears many hats and has blossomed into a unique, authentic, and lovely person, shaped by her multicultural background. In this episode, Maya takes us on a journey through her early childhood, exploring the influences of her family and how she discovered Lolita fashion. We'll delve into how fashion has shaped her identity, and explore her path as an influencer and business owner. A highlight will be her new sustainable fashion brand, @maru.ism, inspired by Lolita fashion, and how she uses her platform to inspire others and contribute to the community.

#4 - Unlock your potential with the OG Quiet Girl

Hey there, welcome back! We have a new guest on HFTQG this month – the OG Quiet Girl, Jen, who inspired this very podcast!  This is a gem-packed episode where Jen kindly shares her life stories and key events that impacted her life as a typical quiet girl. We'll hear about how she eventually ended up where she is in her career path, her change in perspective, and her journey to becoming unapologetically herself. She'll also offer tips for job interviews and her advice on looking towards the future and self-improvement.  If you'd like to explore some of the concepts we discussed in this episode, here are a few links for your reference: Book - The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fxxk: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Subtle_Art_of_Not_Giving_a_F*ck] Learning Styles - ⁠VARK Modalities: Visual, Aural, Read/write & Kinesthetic⁠ [https://vark-learn.com] Organisational tool - Life Styles Inventory (LSI) [https://www.human-synergistics.com.au/our-diagnostics/leaders-managers/life-styles-inventory/]
