7. From Healing To Thriving in Costa Rica w/ Selena

10. Leaning Into Your Own Voice w/ Dom Magwili

Ever feel like you’re looking in from the outside? This week on Who Says That!?, Dom Magwili pulls up his chair and invites us all in. We get into what it really means live the Asian American experience—and how the media world often acts like Filipino Americans are barely a footnote— Dom, Cindy Lynn, and Cini Lee get into: * Why Hollywood barely gets Filipino stories right (spoiler: it’s not about the actors, it’s who’s writing the checks and calling the shots) * What happens when you lean into your own voice—literally!—from self-publishing to narrating your own audiobooks * The wild mashups in Dom Magwilli’s stories: think Filipino Pirates of The Caribbean , meets the magical adventures of Narnia, space, and old-school labor heroes. * Why chasing joy (not just dollar signs) matters, especially when you’re teaching, performing, or charting your own creative path Ready to break out of the boxes? Kick back, listen in, and get inspired to make your own lane—no permission needed. Links: Want more of Dom’s work? Check out www.dmagwilly.com [http://www.dmagwilly.com].

9. Writing our Own Adventure w/ Aloura Charles

Ready to write your own adventure—on the page and in life? On this episode of Who Says That!?, Cindy Lynn welcomes the endlessly creative Aloura Charles: book author, screenwriter, director, mom, and accidental vitamin prankster. From swing dancing nights in Burbank (with Beck in attendance!) to epic bike rides, parenting with purpose, and wrangling the inner artist after life’s curveballs, this chat is a testament to staying curious, connected, and just a little chaotic. We cover everything from the origins of Aloura Charles’ “Sucked In” middle grade series (and why reading aloud really, really matters), to handling grief, to building your own tribe—one crazy story (or science-faction script) at a time. Plus: the sweatiest Italian Halloween, Ghostbuster costumes, and why foaming at the mouth is sometimes inevitable on a film set.

7. From Healing To Thriving in Costa Rica w/ Selena

We’re here for it. Want your own taste?

6. That's Very French

Ever think you knew all there is to know about France—croissants, romance, and perfectly-behaved kids? Think again! This week, Cindy Lynn and Cindi Lee invite Fabrice to spill the real-deal French tea, and trust us... it’s messier, more musical, and SO much funnier than you imagined. We get into everything—from the trauma of chasing the LA music dream, punk rock mosh pits (and accidental elbow punches), naked bar dancing in Strasbourg, all the way to peeing in the woods. Yep, you read that right. If you've ever had bathroom drama on a hike, you’ll feel right at home here. Find out why Fabrice left the hustle for a tiny French village, ended up building two houses with local help, and started hosting one-on-one French immersion weeks (no English allowed, sorry!). Plus, does life in France actually live up to the movies? Is French food as good as everyone says? Do French kids really eat everything? And do Parisians really deserve their rude rep? We cover it all—with plenty of laughs, some real talk about creative burnout, and tips on how to “pour from a full cup” when life gets wild. Thinking about learning French (or just trying out another life)? Want to be immersed in good food, good people, and zero judgment for your hiking bathroom tactics? Fabrice’s immersion program is up and running—details at www.la-marette.com [http://www.la-marette.com] French countryside chickens included.
