Today we talk to friends of the show Jackie Wang and Andrew Trapp.  We discuss Andrew's decision to leave China after over a decade and Jackie's renewed perspective after leaving to live abroad and now returning to Shanghai on a visit.  We talk about the factors behind Andrew deciding to move back to America and reflect on his time living in China; what he learned  enjoyed, will miss, and won't miss.  We also talk about the small day-to-day experiences and also bigger things like personal growth and worldview.  We share what brought us to China in the first place and how we've changed by being here.  We also talk about preparing for reverse culture shock when going back to the US after living abroad for so long.  We talk about the idea of rebuilding your life with a fresh start by moving to another country.  We joke about more practical matters like getting a car and figuring out tipping etiquette.  Aric and Jackie give emotional goodbyes to their close friend who will be missed.Don't forget to leave a rating and subscribe!Add us on WeChat: THD_Official小红书: THD The Honest DrinkEmail: [email protected]: thehonestdrink_Find us on: Apple, Spotify, 喜马拉雅, 小宇宙, 网易云音乐, 小红书, Bilibili, YouTube...

Today Justin and Aric reflect on inner demons or "old friends" that cause torment, such as self-doubt, unmet expectations, fear of repeating hurtful patterns, and the feeling of time slipping away.  We discuss acceptance vs being content, guilt vs shame, and mindfulness.  We talk about our awkward friendship and explore what makes a "one-on-one" friend.  We also talk about the limits of human perspective, when false assumptions collide and zooming out across time and space to see the larger context around people, events and conflicts rather than a narrow recent view.Don't forget to leave a rating and subscribe!Add us on WeChat: THD_Official小红书: THD The Honest DrinkEmail: [email protected]: thehonestdrink_Find us on: Apple, Spotify, 喜马拉雅, 小宇宙, 网易云音乐, 小红书, Bilibili, YouTube...

We ask if Americans are less humble today than they were in the past and how a rich economy attracts better talent.  We talk about the immigrant work mentality and if foreigners have an advantage over the local residents of a country like the US when it comes to chasing the American dream.   We also talk about growing up rich vs growing up poor and what we would change about the way we were raised.Don't forget to leave a rating and subscribe!Add us on WeChat: THD_Official小红书: THD The Honest DrinkEmail: [email protected]: thehonestdrink_Find us on: Apple, Spotify, 喜马拉雅, 小宇宙, 网易云音乐, 小红书, Bilibili, YouTube...
