From Med School To Pop Star

This week, we’re joined by the one and only Thuy 🤍 (and today is her birthday!)

We get real about everything — from growing up Vietnamese in the Bay Area, navigating family expectations, and learning to be proud of who you are… to becoming the first Vietnamese solo artist to perform at Coachella (!!)

We talk about:

The rumors that started at Remi's bachelorette

Cultural pressures + wanting to make your parents proud

Finding confidence when you don’t feel “good enough”

That Coachella moment people still talk about

And the very important story of the swallowed tooth gem

This is one of those heart-hug, laugh-til-you-cry, feels-like-family episodes.

So grab a matcha and come hang with us! 💗
