Are you guys ready for the first ever Tiger Sisters Live?
I'm going to need you to start moving and make some noise for your Tiger Sisters, Gene and Cheriebrook.
Who is the number one misunderstood Disney Zaddy?
How do you feel about sardines for breakfast?
All right.
What are your thoughts on revenge?
Oh my gosh, this cat!
And I think I've learned how to let the fear kind of inspire me because if you sit for a minute and you listen to what it's saying,
And it usually guides in a different direction.
Like, what is the next reinvention?
Reinvention.
Yeah.
And that includes motherhood, right?
For both of us.
Yeah, big transition.
It's a whole other thing.
Our mission has always been to empower and uplift a billion women.
And we really do think we can change the world.
So, like, if anyone thinks that's cringe, then, like, who cares?
We are your Wall Street and Silicon Valley Big Sisters.
And we're a top 10 business podcast bringing late night sister talk meets boardroom strategy.
Hello everyone. Welcome to Tiger Sisters Live. Make some noise. Make some noise. Are you guys ready to see Sheree and Jean? How are you guys ready? I am so excited to bring them out. After leaving their careers at Goldman Sachs, Snapchat, and LinkedIn to bet on themselves and build something entirely on their own, these two sisters have turned late night conversations about money, power, and love into one of the top business podcasts in America. Give it up for that. DJ.
Hit that track.
All right.
I'm going to need you to start moving and make some noise for your Tiger Sisters,
Jean and Cherie Brooloo.
Hi.
Dylan, bringing the energy.
Oh, my gosh.
This is a historic moment.
This is the first ever live show for the Tiger Sisters.
Oh, my God.
I'm like, my heart is being really fast right now and kind of looking out and seeing all of you here.
I know some of you have flown in for this.
of, you know, an hour plus to come to our live show.
Like two hours in L.A. traffic.
Right?
That's love.
That's love right there.
And also just looking out of you guys right now, what a beautiful and amazing community.
Thank you so much for joining us today.
We have an incredible show.
It's going to be so much fun.
And it is a show.
And it's a show.
And it's a show.
And it's a show.
It's a show.
It's a show.
Oh, well, I'm so excited to be here.
And I think let's start with some questions about you guys and about the podcast.
How does that sound?
All right.
Let's do it.
Right.
So what is something you believed about adulthood or success at 25 that you absolutely do not believe anymore?
I think something I believed early in my 20s is that like success was defined as like something that was like really hard to achieve.
You kind of have to like do it with your like teeth gritted and your hand.
and like a fist, you're like, oh my God, I need to grind those late nights and do everything.
And I think that helped get us to where we wanted to be in our career, which we talk about
on the pod. But now I'm in my 30s for the last six months. I feel like a lot of it has been like
what has gotten me to where I am now will not get me to the next step of my life, my career,
and whatever I want next. And so I think something I believed early in my 20s is like,
you have to grind it out and it has to be so hard, but I'm like, that's not the mindset that I'm
bringing into this new decade, a new chapter of my life. Yeah, I love that. And I, so I like
Sharii answering first because then I can think about my answer. Great. Thank you. I always
have her answer first in case you guys haven't noticed. But I think to add to that, I would say
thinking that any situation you're in is permanent, like whether or not you're in a great place in
your life or if you're in like a place where you're not really happy with, like things just change
all the time. I mean, like, look at us. Like, I don't even recognize myself. Like, what is going on?
I think, I feel like this is like a fever dream. But so I think it's just good to remember, like,
whatever situation you're in, it doesn't have to be permanent if you don't want it to be.
I love that. That is beautiful. I love that. And the grind mentality. I'm like, that is very Asian.
Right. I'm like, I got us here. But I'm like, I don't.
I don't know, that grind mentality, I think it wears you down, right?
It burns you out after a long time and it doesn't feel sustainable.
And we're looking for the sustainable thing for the long term.
Yeah, and there's no honor in grinding just to grind.
I think that that's like a mindset I had to get rid of very, very recently where it's like sometimes
you feel like, oh, when you're in the grind, it's like honorable in a way.
But that's not necessary.
Like I feel like we can really shed that.
I love that.
Q-Moulon.
I don't know if I'm an honor.
Okay, next question.
What brings joy to you now that maybe wouldn't have impressed your younger selves?
I feel like I can answer for Sheree.
What?
What are you going to say?
I'm scared.
You do like 50 million hobbies.
Yeah.
I mean, I have to make time for the hobbies in my life.
I'm not going to say it's about balance because I feel like that's like very trite.
But it is figuring out ways, like I said, to make things sustainable for your life.
So it's like, how do you weave in those friendships in the,
time for yourself and your hobbies. I would say last year, building Tiger Sisters,
we're like two years in now. So like the first year, it did feel really tough at times because
we were working a lot. So for this like second year, I think the approach is like, how do I weave
in my life into the work? So it doesn't feel so burnout-e. Yeah. I would say, I feel like since
we're all friends here, I can say an answer that I feel like on the surface,
might seem superficial.
But I think in the last year, I, like, learned how to do my hair.
Oh, yeah.
I learned how to do makeup for the first time.
Shout out Kelly Zhang, who taught me at her makeup class.
We actually went to a makeup lesson.
Yes.
It was necessary, guys.
No, and it changed my life.
And then I also got my colors done.
And, like, all of it is because now, you know, we're more in the public eye.
And, like, we're in a role that is more visible.
But I really wish I had done it earlier.
And I think my whole life, I thought.
my value was only my brain. Do you know what I mean? I was like, oh, like, what everyone says
is that I'm smart and I work hard. So, like, that's all I focus on. But it's actually a lot healthier
and that you feel better when you can invest in your whole self. So I feel like that's a message
that, especially as Asian women, like, we don't get a lot. Like, you're not, you're not told,
like, actually, it's healthy to invest in these parts of yourself. To learn how to do a blowout
for yourself.
I love that.
It's the matchmaker,
Mulan.
Learn how to do a blowout.
Okay.
This next question
comes from someone
in our lovely audience.
Do you have any advice
on marketing yourself
in a way that is authentic to you?
I love this question.
And thank you guys
for filling out the pre-show survey
because we were able to collect
some questions from you.
I think about marketing myself
and that sounds really weird.
and gross to say, like it's, I don't know, people, there's like an ick or like kind of like a stink
around. Like, how do you talk about yourself? Like, does it sound like you're bragging? But my thing is
that like no one will talk about you or represent you or tell your story. So it is your job to figure out
how you want to come across. And that might be a LinkedIn post. That might be on Instagram.
But what it comes down to is your personal brand. Like how do you want to show up and how do you
want to be known when you enter a room? So I think, I mean, obviously, like I'm posting on
Instagram every single day and on LinkedIn, check it out. But like, how you come across is so important.
So spend some time investing and thinking about like, what are the values that I have and the features
that I have that I want to be known for. And so I think it's all about personal brand. And no one
will care more about your personal brand or your career more than yourself. So it's something you
need to spend time doing. And I would say two things I learned from Sheree in this, because I feel like
she's the like master at this and I learn a lot from her is that one it doesn't have to be this really
like heavy scary thing it's like trying to change your mindset around it and thinking about it as a
fun thing like oh this is a fun project this is like a lighthearted thing that I get to do in
in branding myself and that's the first one I think the second one is when you create content
and put yourself out there thinking about what are all the times when I've seen content from
someone else and I really appreciated it and it made me happier in that day or it actually made
me think or changed my perspective about something in a positive way and I personally used to be,
I think I still am like very, very private and I had to sort of think about like, oh, putting
myself out there is helping people. So I think thinking about that mindset is really helpful.
Yeah, I'm so proud of Jean for her journey over the last two years with Tiger sisters and on social
media. Okay, guys. Thank you guys. This is what I need. This is what I needed. It's not a surprise that I started
a podcast. I've been like on social media and like since I was five years old. I'm like, hey guys.
Yeah. And all my childhood videos. So like it's not really a surprise for the youngest child.
Yeah, I'll say I'm the youngest. Hey. Hey guys. Right. But I think for Jean, I mean, it's a complete career pivot for her.
So I'm just so incredibly proud. And as her little sister, seeing the transformation. I mean, if I can do it, you guys can
a thousand percent do it.
Like anyone here could do it if I,
if I can put myself on stage like this.
I love that.
The next question is very related to that from the audience.
It says,
I'm a pretty private person,
but want to start building a brand online.
Have you struggled with the discomfort of sharing online?
What helped you break out of that discomfort?
I mean,
I think what I just said.
Yes, yes.
I might have jumped ahead.
Anything to add?
Well, I mean,
I think it's definitely easier when we have the two of us,
You know, like it's the Tiger Sisters.
We can rely on each other.
Jean can wait for me to say my answer first so she can think about her.
I thought of something else, guys.
Typical.
It's good that it's the two of us.
So it's easier.
And I'm not saying like, you know, starting online, you should definitely do it with someone.
But like when you have kind of a co-founder, a co-pilot, like when you're starting a company,
whether it's a startup, a media venture, like it's always easier when you have someone to
bounce ideas off of. So I'm very thankful for that. All right, what are you going to say?
Okay. So what I'll add is that I think for us, when we first started thinking about building Tiger
Sisters, we actually talked about the mission from the very, very beginning, right? So I think you guys
know our mission has always been to empower and uplift a billion women, which sounds kind of crazy.
And we never used to say it out loud to people because I feel like we were bashful about it.
It sounded like too big of a goal, but now we say it. And I think,
having that goal sort of grounds us or like anything we do is in service of that goal.
So like how could it be cringy or even if it is cringy?
Like who the hell cares, right?
Because we're trying to do this thing.
We have this mission that we deeply care about and we think is really important.
And we really do think we can change the world.
So like if anyone thinks that's cringe, then like who cares?
Back them.
Yeah.
Back them.
I love that.
Okay.
Two more questions.
one from the audience.
How did you start to find your voice
negotiating salary and promotions with your manager?
And what has an AHA, what was an AHA moment for you?
Hmm.
A-ha moment.
Also, no mess.
I'm like, I'm so dumb.
I'm like, is that business?
What A-H-A?
He's like, what was an A-A-P-I?
I mean, A-A-H.
I love it.
A-H-A-A-A. I don't know.
I'm sorry.
I'm a dumb...
I love it.
Okay.
The show is a roller coaster.
How do I put this?
I don't like confrontation.
Like, that's who I am, and I've grown to, like, run towards the fire.
And if there is confrontation, like, how do I grow from it?
But I kind of see, like, negotiating as a bit of a confrontation.
Maybe it's not, but, like, in my mind it is.
So, like, I would shy away from it.
But, like, I said before, like, no one's going to care more about your career than you do.
And it is completely up to you to know.
to negotiate and to ask because if you don't ask, definitely nothing will change.
But if you do ask, something great can come out of it. So like, what is the best that can happen?
And I think the tactical takeaway for this for negotiating is practicing. It sounds kind of
uncomfortable or crazy to do, but like doing it in the mirror and like having a script,
it's like if you're negotiating with your boss and, you know, like, hey, I would like, you know,
a raise. And they're like, okay, here's the number.
and they give you a number, you're not like, yay, thank you so much. You're like, kind of poker face
and being like, okay, like, this is great information. Like, I'll take it back and think about it.
Like, let's set up a follow-up meeting. Like, you don't have the pressure to be, like,
responding right in the moment. I think the biggest negotiation tip is, like, you can take
time to think about things. Yeah, and practicing it, like, actually saying it out loud one time,
you'll be surprised by how much that helps you because even just, like, talking it through,
it like does something in the neurons of your brain
where like when you hear yourself saying it out loud,
you're like, oh, I've said it out loud already.
And if you don't want to do it yourself,
you can just ask a friend.
Any new friends here?
You can be like, hey, can I,
can we talk for 10 minutes on the phone?
And practice.
Actually, we did this in business school.
We actually had a class on role playing,
business role plays.
Literally, it's just like the conversations
that are the toughest to have
if you practice them ahead of time,
whether it's asking for a raise, whether it's hiring someone or I guess giving someone a promotion
over someone else, that's a really tough conversation to have.
I think it's always worth practicing.
It's all about those AHA moments.
Amazing.
Do you guys want to know a wisdom that my mother told me about growing up?
Yeah.

Okay, now back to the show.
Final question from the audience.
How do you make, I love this question, how do you make time for adult friendships and invest in those relationships?
I love that.
Oh, I can answer first.
Hey, guys.
I think as you get older, especially as your friends move into different stages of life,
especially when people start having kids and having to focus a lot of time on managing their families,
I think there's two parts of it.
The first one, I haven't thought of the second one, but the first one is actually being kind of like organized around it and being a little bit type A.
So one thing that me and my girlfriends from HBS do is that the four of us arrange this kind of like retreat every year where we have, I think I've mentioned this before on the podcast maybe once, where 20 of us girls all from the same class, we all get together once a year for one weekend. And we just do a weekend of like bonding and catching up. And like, you know, we've tried, we've done a little bit more formal programming before where we've had like, oh, a fireside chat where.
one of our girlfriends who goes is the CFO of a public company.
So we're like, what's it like being the CFO of a public company?
Like tell us every, you know what I mean?
So I think part of it is being very intentional and creating that recurring event,
whether it's yearly or maybe quarterly, and then doing it with a group.
So having a few people do that together, that's really helpful for having like a group event.
and then I think the second thing
I have one if you want time
to think about your second answer
the second thing Cherie will be answering
mine's also a two-parter
and I have my second part
the first one is
I mean like Jean said it's about intentionality
but I think a lot of it
as we're like in our 20s 30s 40s beyond
like life gets busy
it's all about the follow up and you need two people
who are both open
to having a friendship
and having the follow up
Because like I've been in the situation where like you're like, you're the person in the friendship where there's just like, hey, are we hanging out? Like blah, blah, blah. And like they're really busy. Maybe it's with work. Maybe it's with a new partner. They're just like not in that season of their life, which is like my second point is that like I think friendships and adult friendships are all about different seasons. And it's okay if you have like a season, whether it's literally a quarter or like half a year or even a year where you're like very invested in the social part of your life. But things happen. Different things evolve in your life.
And it's okay to kind of like fade in and out, I think, of the socialness of your life.
Yeah.
Didn't I have a great second point, guys?
Yeah.
I love that so much.
A lot of the time I feel like we think success is being by yourself grinding, but success
comes from bouncing ideas off of other people, friendship, getting.
And I mean, you're working with someone who you're your best friend in college here is today, right?
Who you're working with right now.
Shout out fortune questions.

We're so happy to be here.

Okay.
So we have a couple of questions
for you, but before we dive
into that, we have a bit
of an icebreaker game
for you guys.

They don't know what's coming.
They don't know what's coming.
I'm okay

meanwhile
sardines
okay guys
we're gonna ask
through a couple of slides
are you more
Jean or Cherie coated
and by the end of this
there's only a couple
of questions
you're gonna figure out
are you more like
Jean or Shari
So the first one is...
This is a very high stakes test, guys.
So nervous.
Okay.
Okay.
So how do you feel about sardines for breakfast?
I'm going to say no.
No.
Sardines for lunch?
For lunch.
Okay.
So you are pro sardine?
No.
No.
Wait.
At all?
Oh, for lunch, though, not for breakfast.
Is that weird?
Pro sardine, but not...
In general.
Yes.
But not for breakfast.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
In general, yes.
Sorry.
Okay, that's kind of like a halfway, halfway there.
Are you familiar?
Like, sardines are like trending right now, like on TikTok, on Instagram.
Everyone's eating them.
And I have a very strange craving first thing in the morning.
Actually, it starts even before then.
When I go to bed, I'm always thinking about what I'm going to have for breakfast the next
morning.
And it is sardines.
How?
What's the ingredients?
Just by itself?
Sardines, a piece of toast, some flaky sea salt, a pinch of, like, lemon.
I've air fried them before.
They're pretty good air fried.
Air fried?
Yeah.
Give me a little crisp.
Okay.
I'm into that.
I would say we're halfway there.
Okay.
Yeah.
This group is very good on omega-3s.
We're good.
We're good.
Okay, the next one.
How do you feel about binge watching an entire series in one night?
Have you ever done that?
Oh, yeah.
Wait, really?
Yeah.
For sure.
Okay.
How often?
Not very.
I would say more so before I had kids.
Before I was a mom.
Yeah.
And now it's like I'll watch like 30 seconds of a show.
Turn it off.
Come back.
Watch like two minutes.
Come back.
Like it's very disrupted.
It takes me like six months to watch a show now.
Meanwhile,
you watch Moana like 50 times a week.
Yes.
This is true.
I have watched Moana like 150 times.
Yes.
In total.
Yes.
Same.
Okay.
But if you could,
you would be binge watching.
Yeah.
An entire series.
Definitely.
Okay.
Because this is, this is me.
This is a Gene special.
She's very good at binge watching an entire series in a single night.
Thank you.
I like how you turn that into a positive.
I'm very good at it.
She's very good at it.
I have a special skill.
What kind of genre?
Like anything.
I liked reality TV, but like anything.
She's big on reality TV.
Yeah.
That's another.
Oh, yeah.
That's another difference between us.
You're not so much with the.
I just doesn't watch TV.
She has too many hobbies.
I have too many hobbies, as we've said.
She needs to, like, spin pottery and stuff.
I go swimming and do pottery.
I play tennis.
But I don't really watch that much TV.
Honestly, guys, I think I'm scrolling.
I think that's my TV time is my script.
That's true.
Fair enough.
I already think I'm gene-coded.
We have way many more questions.
You can't decide that.
Come on.
Well, do you guys also, last question.
Do you binge?
Binge read?
Do you binge read also?
Ever binge read?
Like you'll read a whole book in one night?
Definitely.
Okay.
That's me.
I mean, free children, though.
Like, I will fall asleep five minutes in now.
But you, yes, I would definitely read a whole book in one night.
Okay.
We'll do the next one.
Okay, the next one.
All right.
What are your thoughts on revenge?
Oh my gosh, this cat.
How do you feel about revenge?
Just in general.
Revenge.
Oh, Jenna has something to say.
No.
No.
Yes. No, no, I'm not into revenge. I'm not so into it. What if it's so, what if it's
paired with this really cute cat? Yeah, that's fair. What if you saw an X that you no longer,
I mean, it was not an amical breakup. What if you saw them and they're like dusty now and you're
like, oh, they don't look as good anymore. Like, well, how do you feel about that? I'm into that.
Are you into that? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. I just think it like active revenge is not really
the game we play.
But, you know, I'm into passive revenge.
Passive revenge.
We've created a new category of revenge.
Passive revenge.
Passive revenge.
So it's basically just living, living the best life is the best revenge, something like that.
Yeah.
I think you get what you give.
And I think we got to give kindness and whatever they get they're going to get, you know.
Sounds like she loves revenge, guys.
She's really into revenge.
Karma is going to get you.
It's a little passive revenge.
Passive revenge.
Passive revenge.
Okay.
How do you feel about an early morning workout?
Where you and I go are separate ways.
We're on completely different schedules.
Wait, us too.
Wait, say more.
Tell us.
6 a.m. every day.
6 a.m.
Wait, what are you doing?
What are you doing?
Like a hit training mate, like workout at 6th.
Oh, right.
Training mate.
Wait, you've hit like 400 or something crazy session.
500 classes, guys. Damn. It's crazy. Wait, is that like an app? No, no. It's in like Santa Monica. Well, it's like a studio. It's by these Australian people. So what do you? Yeah, it's very cute Australian people. Very positive vibes. Yeah. Not revenge. Not vengeful. Not vengeful. Okay. What about you guys? And what about you? Well, we know. I want to hear about you, Allie. Yeah. Allie, what do you do, Allie? Oh, me. I haven't worked out in all long.
time. I blame pregnancy, new motherhood. But I mean, you know, I'm like walking around the block
with Charlie. So I feel like that counts. Yeah. Getting steps in, daily steps. Yes, but I'm not a 7 a.m.
in the morning, like generally workout type person. And we're complete opposites because when I'm kind
of preparing lunch, you're like preparing dinner. Eating dinner. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm a night owl.
Yeah. Me too. Oh, see. So I'm the early working out person. I love an early morning workout. I'm like,
start your day, drink your lemon water.
Sorry, I sound unbearable.
Eat your sardines.
Right?
Eat your sardines, get your omega-3s in the morning.
Start the day off right.
She will, like, put on a swim cap and go swimming.
Like, who is she?
Oh, my God.
Wow.
I haven't done that in a little bit, but I think it's the early morning workout that just gets me, like, going.
No, I could never.
Yeah.
I love that for you.
I love that for you.
Yeah, I'm a night owl.
Ooh.
Chicken paw.
How do you feel about chicken,
chicken paws. It is AAPI Heritage Month. So, I know. This one's controversial.
I've had them once. Yeah. And I loved them. Yeah. Okay, but I ate them on a cruise ship.
Oh. Doesn't sound right. I was a kid. And it was, hey, do you want to try this? And I was, sure.
And I ate them, they were fine. I'm shocked. I'm still here. But you haven't had them since.
I have not. Okay. But I would. Yeah. She's an open-minded queen.
Open-minded.
Good for you, right?
Oh, they're really good.
They have a lot of collagen.
Yeah.
What are you?
I've never had them.
Oh.
Today's the day.
I'm into, I love food.
I'll try mostly anything, but if they look like that, I don't know that I would.
It is too obviously a paw.
Like, it is a paw.
Do you clip the nails or the nails stay on?
No, it's a legitimate question.
Yeah, no, the nails are clipped off.
They need a manicure.
The paws need a manicure.
No.
Well, not by us, by the person who's preparing.
No.
Cut short or gone?
No.
Gone.
I'm gone.
I don't think so.
Anyway, this is Sheree's number one order at dim sum.
Oh, my God.
Don't worry, Jenna.
I'll take you out for dim sum.
We'll get some chicken pies.
It's just going to be...
All chicken paws.
It's going to be only chicken paws for the dimsum.
Would highly recommend you guys tried if you haven't already.
Open-minded.
Okay.
Okay, how do you feel about four days, no hair wash?
I feel like we're traumatizing you with our slides.
And we're really far too much about ourselves.
It really learned a lot today.
It could be three days.
It could be two days.
Four days is too long.
Pushing it for me.
What's the longest you've stretched it?
Yeah, how long?
It's a really good blowout.
Oh, yeah.
With the blowout, you could go maybe like five.
Yeah.
Six days, maybe.
Yeah.
If I'm just on Zoom and I'm home,
Sorry.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
The longest I've stretched one is probably three days.
Yeah.
But it doesn't hold.
Like a blowtry won't hold my hair for three days nicely.
That's why you need the dry shampoo.
I know, but it won't.
It really doesn't work.
It doesn't work.
I'm an everyday hair washer.
Okay, next one.
Having hobbies as an adult, I feel like I've already been outed for this one.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes? Yes. What are some of your hobbies? What do you do? Was tennis a hobby?
Tennis? Yeah. Apparently washing your hair sounds like a hobby.
Washing your hair. Sounds like a job. She does it like every day, guys.
I feel like when you have kids, you're a constant crafter. And we like make necklaces and bracelets all the time.
So like I like, it's very relaxing. We do crafts. We paint. We do beads. So I feel like my adult hobby is tennis.
and my kid hobby is like crafting.
Do you have hobby, Sally?
My hobby is watching Survivor and the Pit.
I love Survivor.
We don't ruin it.
I haven't seen the latest episode.
I am not saying a thing, but season 50.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Obsessed.
I love her.
One wood.
Can we, the Billy Isish Hidden Idol or the Billy Island?
The Blue Ribbon Island.
Anyone?
Anyone?
Anyone.
Yes.
Survivor and the Pit.
I like that.
I do think for, in terms of.
hobbies, there are a bunch that I'm like, when I have kids, I'm going to start doing this again.
Or like, when I have kids, I'm going to buy all the stuffies that I want. I love stuffies,
but I can. It's a great opportunity for stuffies. Yes. We actually have a lot. We have a lot of
stuffed animals between the two of us in our shared place. But not nearly, not nearly as many as I want.
We have, there's zero children, just two adults. But stuffies are in. I mean, you know, the Luboo's and
the blind boxes.
You got to have them.
Yeah.
They're little comfort items.
Uh-oh, here we go.
Okay, next one.
Buying designer on vacation to save money.
We got to get that that refund.
You get that VAT refund.
Oh, got it.
Yes, when you go to Europe.
Or when you're in Hawaii, the tax is lower.
So it makes sense, right?
Right, right?
Yeah.
I'm into it.
It feels a little stressful, though, because it's such a big purchase.
It's like when you're there in the moment, I get kind of stressed.
You can't really sleep on it.
Put it back.
Yeah.
Put it back.
But the savings, the savings, you know.
The savings is good.
It's an investment.
I think it's an investment.
I'm into it.
Okay.
The next one is ordering mild Thai food or no spicy.
No spicy.
No spicy.
No, no.
No, no.
You got to have the spice.
The spice.
Who's mild?
She is.
Oh, she can't handle.
I can't handle spicy food.
Everything she ordered.
No spicy, no spicy.
It's not.
She doesn't say it.
We're not related in that sense because Jean will have it like Thai spicy.
I love spicy.
She loves spicy.
And I am the wimp between the two of us.
Yeah.
So there are certain dishes that she can't have that I order.
That we have to compromise on.
Yeah.
We're like the papaya salad like no spicy.
No spicy.
Spicy all the way.
Oh, I think this is the last one.
Right?
Is smoothie a meal?
I like how you guys are taking it so seriously.
I know.
We're like overthinking every question.
I know.
I kind of want to know with the audience thing.
Yes?
No.
No.
Everyone's really split.
I feel like I'm more hungry after I eat a smoothie.
Is that crazy?
No, I don't think it's a meal.
I don't think it's a meal.
It's like an appetizer.
Yeah.
It's like first course.
Yes, exactly.
Yeah.
And a moose push.
I eat smoothies a lot as like, not like a meal replacement,
but I feel like during the day recently,
I don't feel like ingesting like hard food.
Real food.
She will be drinking a ton of smoothies though.
Also, she's on the go a lot.
So I think it's just on the go, guys.
I'm so on the go.
Wasn't there someone on Love is Blind who blended chicken?
Yes.
Right?
I remember that.
But chicken was something, right?
I can't remember.
No.
Yeah, they made like a chicken smoothie.
I had another friend who.
has an aversion to eating.
Like he's like, I don't enjoy food.
So he's like, I'd rather stick everything into a blender, blend it and just drink it
really fast than eat it.
And I was like, how is this possible?
And they were Asian.
I was like, I don't believe this.
I love eating.
I live to eat.
Me too.
It's like one of my favorite hobbies.
Yeah.
We can all agree on that.
Cue the chicken paws.
Yeah.
I think that was our last one.
Well, I guess in terms of like Sheree or gene coded.
I think I think Allie is more gene coated.
For sure.
And Jenna is more shriek-led.
I think so.
I think so.
It makes sense.
It makes sense.
Okay.
That seems fair.
I feel it.
Yeah.
Yay.
You guys.
You guys pass the test with flying colors.
Thank you so much.
That's why we're here.
We just wanted to get the A.
Yeah.
You're backstage like, gosh, they're so smart.
They're like professors.
You guys are so smart.
Meanwhile, we're like, is a smoothie a meal?
Right, right.
That's, I think, why we came out and we're like, bringing out the questions for us, you know?
Yeah.
But we do have some actual real conversation questions with you.
And, I mean, the theme of today is reinventing yourself and also bringing more joy into your life.
And so we wanted to talk more about those two topics, especially as it relates to a PI month.
So the first question that we had is that you guys have both had really incredible and
storied careers. That's changed directions multiple times. So how do you know when it's time to evolve
versus when it's still time to push through what you're currently doing? Bortem is a really good sign
of when it's time to change. I also think that being scared, there's two types of scared to me.
Like there's a scary, this is not right, something's wrong, get out of here kind of scared, like a fear.
And there's a scared, like a very exciting, challenging, scared.
Like, it's a great sign that I should be doing this, like stepping into the next chapter.
So I think listening to those kind of feelings are really good signs to, you know, move and kind of like guide you in your path.
And that's kind of how I let, like, those are the feelings that I kind of lead with.
Game as fast as they could.
It's been too long, cowboy.
From Disney and Pixar.
So that's Lily Pat.
What are you?
Some sort of old man toy?
What?
She thinks you're old because you're bald, Woody.
Toys are for play.
Tech is for everything.
Toy Story is back.
I want to talk to you, device.
The long toys.
Turn her off.
Sorry, spotted.
I have plastic fingers.
Featuring Taylor Swift's All New Song.
I knew it, I knew you.
Available now.
No way.
Oh, yeah.
Disney and Pixar's Toy Story 5.
Now playing only in theaters.
Tickets available now.
Rees knows a thing or two about great combinations.
chocolate and peanut butter, obviously, but there's more than one way to Reese's. From
indulgent Reese's big cups with caramel to crunchy Reese's pieces and Reese's miniatures,
there's a delicious Reese's for every mood. It's the same combo you love, just with more ways
to enjoy it. So whether you're snacking, sharing, or just treating yourself, nothing else is
Reese's. Love that. Yeah, I think similarly, I think through my whole journey, I, similar,
similar to what you said, whenever I'm faced with two journeys and one of them is very scary
and one of them is not, I always tend to try to go the scarier path. And scarier meaning, it feels
like a challenge, feels like something I've never done before. I feel like in my career,
I did comedy for a long time. And I remember talking to Trave, my partner, and I was like,
I'm just a comedy person. I'm just a comedy person. He's like, what do you mean? I was like,
I'm just here to try to make people laugh. And he's like,
But I think you can do more than that.
And I was like, no, I can't.
No, I can't.
And it took me a long time for myself to be like, oh, wait, maybe I can do drama.
Okay, maybe I can like, you know, try to start something like AGC.
So I think it's been my own kind of letting go of seeing myself as just one particular trait or path.
I love that.
One follow-up question I have on that topic is that I don't know if you guys know this,
but I have followed both of you online for a really, really long time.
I'm like genuinely both of your long, long time fans.
We are fan-girling.
We both are.
We are fan girls, we all.
I know.
And so as part of it, I feel like I've always seen both of you in your lives as so, like,
glamorous and like that is very much how it looks from the outside, right?
So can you give us a little bit more like behind the scenes?
Like, what's a time when you change something or you had that big reinventing
where obviously it looks glamorous from the outside, but on the inside it was actually really
terrifying and maybe even like really difficult.
I mean, I still have imposter syndrome about this whole founder position, right, of founding
something because it was something that I sort of started by accident, you know, and it was just
based on this need of, I said, does anyone else feel this way? And, you know, just people came
from everywhere and said that they did. So I think
yeah, I'm still kind of coming to terms with that I can kind of be that.
Stepping into the role as like, I am a founder.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because again, I just think of myself as, oh, I'm just an actor.
I don't know, you know, how to do this and do that.
But I think, like, learning along the way has just been huge and being open to that, too.
Yeah, I think that both Alley and I started as actresses when we were both very, very young,
like under the age of 10.
And so it's been a long journey in the entertainment industry as actresses.
And I think for me, going from theater to then, you know, working on Glee for so many years,
which looked glamorous, but it was not.
It was a really big shift after Glee because Glee really opened up all the doors.
It was like a lightning in the bottle experience that changed our lives forever in so many ways.
But afterwards, as an actress, you think, like, I,
I've made it. I'm going to work forever. And the truth was, nobody wanted us in their audition
rooms. Nobody wanted to hire us because they couldn't see us as anything but those characters.
So people really needed a break from seeing us all over the place. Like we were sick of
seeing ourselves. And I think that was a really scary moment of coming off the show and thinking,
we're all going to go back on another TV shows and everybody's going to work. And none of us did.
And so pivoting to producing and going back to New York and going back on the stage, all of those things felt scary.
I went directly back and I did some Broadway, which was like so much fun, but there's so much pressure that comes with that because now everybody's watching.
What are they going to do next?
And I think that those moments were so terrifying.
And they may seem like, wow, they're just working.
They never saw the low in between.
and they never saw any of the transition.
And so I think that was like a big, a really big one for me.
Yeah.
I feel like I love that we're talking about this so publicly and on stage in front of everyone
because this is kind of the reality of it, right?
It's like we see the shiny exterior on Instagram or LinkedIn,
but I think career paths are so, like the path kind of goes like this, right?
But then like only looking backwards, can you really connect the dots?
They're like, oh, it made sense in that time, and maybe there was a lull and a pivot.
But like, you can kind of explain it while looking back, but during it is sometimes terrifying.
Totally.
It's so scary.
And I think I've learned how to let the fear kind of inspire me, because if you sit for a minute and you listen to what it's saying, then it usually guides in a different direction.
Like, I remember, similar to Jenna, I hadn't worked in a while, like, acting wise.
And I was like, what are I going to do?
I don't, I'm going to quit, I think.
And then one day I was like, you know what?
really want to make something. So I just woke up on a Saturday morning and I got my dog was in it.
We just filmed it my neighborhood. I got a friend to like film it and we posted it on YouTube and it got like 70 views and
I was like, oh, this is a failure. No one cares. And then randomly like a few months later I got a call and they were
like, oh, they want you to be in Toy Story. And I was like, what do you mean? How? I didn't even audition
for this. And they were like the Pixar casting department went on YouTube and they found this video you made.
Oh my God.
And they saw and they were like, that's the character.
And I was like, so you're telling me one of the 70 views that I got.
Oh my God.
Because I think we don't think about the people as real people.
That's 70 real people like 100 people of today.
You are all amazing people that showed up and came out.
And I think we tend to forget that.
We see, oh, that's a failure.
Like no one liked that.
But it's not true.
Like you could be impacting so many people and we don't even know it.
Right.
And your next opportunity.
Like you never know when you put yourself out there, it just opens up so many more possibilities and like room for collisions, whether it's like going to an event, putting your content out there, putting yourself out there. You never know who's going to be in that room. And what is that Lady Gaga quote? Like what does she say? That's like, oh, she says like if there's a hundred people in a room, like you only need that one person to believe in you. To like believe in you. And that one person found you. Of that 70 views. That's right. I'm feeling really inspired by you guys and your story. And I think that's,
takeaway for me is just like, I need to be brave. Like, I need to be brave. Yeah. I also, I'm just really
grateful that you guys are sharing the story with us because like when I think about you two,
you're both these incredible multi hyphenates with amazing resumes. But now you guys are giving us
the inside scoop where you're like, well, actually the only reason I became a multi hyphenate is
because I thought that this part of my career was over. Like I thought that it came from like a place
of need. Yeah, I feel like everything maybe kind of
of the biggest parts of my personal journey have been from moments of being rock bottom.
Yeah. And then using that to kind of figure out what is the next, I don't even want to say
next iteration, but what is, what is, you know, going to, what is the next convention?
Reinvention. Yeah. And that includes motherhood, right, for both of us. Yeah, big transition.
It's a whole other thing. Yeah, really big transition.
If you guys enjoyed our recent episode about communication with Professor Matt Abrams, you should check out his podcast, Think Fast, Talk Smart.
Yes, this was one of my favorite conversations.
And Professor Matt Abrams was my speaking coach when I did my TED Talk last year.
We basically manifested this episode because we literally talked about him in an episode the year before.
And then now here we are besties with him and recommending his podcast.
Check out Think Fast, Talk Smart.
It's a podcast that comes out twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays.
They go over everything about communication and speaking, whether it's presenting, small talk, networking.
They cover it all.
And communication is such a universal topic.
There's something for everyone.
This is also a very full circle moment for Gene and me because I actually saw Jenna when I was 15, maybe 14.
This was when I was, I think, a freshman in high school or something.
and Jean had bought tickets for the both of us to go to Glee the concert.
So I have photos of me in my like Warbler's T-shirt.
We need the photo.
We don't have the photos.
But imagine this.
You guys can see it on the podcast we did with Jenna.
But yeah, I was just watching Jenna on stage like 15 years ago.
And so this is like so.
And it was a huge, huge gleeck.
She was obsessed.
I loved it too.
And I was, I had just started my first job out of school.
So I had some, you know, disposable income.
And I was like, okay, I'm going to buy this as a really big gift for Sherey.
And even though I had started making money, I could still only afford like the worst tickets.
So we were like in the literally the furthest back row of NASA Coliseum.
All the way in NASA Coliseum.
But it was like life changing.
I have a Jenna story too.
No, stop.
No, I do.
Because even though we kind of grew up in the industry together, it was always like,
rooting each other on from afar.
Yeah.
But I remember there used to be these big Halloween parties in the industry.
Halloween was a big deal.
And they had one at Pink Taco.
R-A-P Pink Taco?
It's not there anymore.
It's still there?
Oh, no.
Oh, I don't think it's still there.
And I was at this Halloween party, and I went to go to the bathroom, and there was a long line.
And so I'm just waiting there.
And then I see the person in front of me has, like, these pink knee highs.
And then I look up.
You're outing Jenna right now.
It's Jenna.
Because it was a Halloween costume.
I don't know.
Do you remember?
No, I don't remember.
And I look up and it's Jenna and I was like, oh my gosh.
I'm right behind Jenna.
She's ugly.
She starts singing a solo for you.
No.
But that's the funny part is that Allie and I didn't really know each other.
But every time we'd go on auditions, sometimes we'd go on the same things.
But you would hear like the same names over and over like, oh, you didn't get it, but
Ali did.
And she'd always, they'd always be like,
Ali got it and I'm like Ali got it
and honestly like cheering
her on because it's not if it's not
my part it's not you know we're so different
first we're like who's this bitch
yeah like this bitch no
no revenge we're just so different
but like you know but we'll go up for the same
stuff but always it was like
this like phantom girl
that I was like get it Ali
and now you guys
are C O and CEO
of AGC
you work together every single day
We do. We're on Zoom every day.
Like for hours.
Yes.
But again, I think what we're talking about is a leap of faith moment.
I kind of remember how this all happened.
And Jenna, I don't want to speak for you, but I'll tee up the story is I got a call from Jenna one day.
And you're like, I just had a baby.
You're like, I just had a baby.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I had always admired what Ali had built with AAG, you know, for the seven years before I came on.
and she had built a community and a place of safety
and a place of, you know, belonging.
And we had always been talking about a podcast.
And she was like, I want to do a podcast.
And I was like, I'll help you.
But then, you know, we had babies and life happened
and she did Toy Story.
And it was just like we were working.
And I had had my kid and my second kid.
And I said, what are you doing with Asian American Girl Club?
And she said, I just feel like this is the time
that we got to get real serious with it
because you were bootstrapped before, you had really kind of done this rogue on your own
with our amazing chief of staff, Tia, and built this amazing brand by yourself.
And so I said, well, let me help.
Let me come on.
What do you need?
How can I be of assistance?
And so we started working together, and it's been really amazing.
It's been so wonderful to, you know, work alongside her as a friend and a colleague
and somebody just like deeply respect you know like what a joy it is to enjoy the people that you
work with so important yeah it's it's really like life's true luxury to to love the people that you
work with and enjoy and be happy and excited to go to work every day and be like oh I get to see my
friend you get to see my best friend yeah we always like to say like keep it in the family and
it's it's true like you're legitimately doing that but we're legitimately blood related
literally.
We have to find those people, right, that just get you and are, you know,
going to go through the ups and the downs, the highs and the lows because this isn't,
it ain't easy.
What you're doing, the amount of work it takes that I've learned to do a podcast and all
of the stuff in between, we're backstage and we're like, okay, now I got to do this.
And you're like, let's make a TikTok.
And it's just never ending, right?
So I really applaud you ladies for just everything that you've done.
It's so inspiring.
Nice.
Should we go to an audience question?
Yeah, let's do it.
You want to ask the first one or the second one?
Yeah, the first one.
I pick this question.
I would love to hear y'all ladies' answers on this.
So Asian American female voices have become louder in this generation.
Love.
Love.
Love.
What challenges do you still see as persistent or areas we need to work on?
Thank you to the audience member who submitted this question.
Yes.
I definitely think asking for more.
It's something that I still struggle with.
I get like embarrassment after when I kind of stand up for myself or even if I'm
speaking about myself.
I'll be like, oh my gosh.
Like why did I say that?
I don't sound humble.
Like I sound like I'm asking for too much.
And I think that's just something that comes like you were saying with practice.
when I first started even doing press and doing interviews,
I would say things and I'd get so embarrassed after.
And then I kind of realized that even if I feel that way,
I need to push through that.
And it gets easier every single time to kind of refine your voice.
And no one can really take your story.
And no one can take that away from you, right?
It's my perspective.
It's how I see it.
And I always try to look through that lens now of,
okay, if people want to say this or that, like that is, that's my truth.
So that's all I can go off of.
I can't beat that.
That was so good, Allie.
It's not a competition, Jen.
No, I mean, it's always a competition.
Ellie.
No, I'm just kidding.
It's, no, I think it was perfectly said.
I totally agree.
Yeah, and I think people are asking you because they want to hear from you.
That's something that I think it's easy to forget.
Like, we don't just have a platform because we're just like speaking into the ether.
I think it's actually really important to be who we are and to put it out there and to show people that it's okay and you should be speaking up.
Yeah.
And I think really beautiful things, my takeaway is that like really beautiful things come from moments of discomfort.
Like making the ask that's uncomfortable or like choosing the scary path like you said, Allie and like being brave but like running towards the thing that makes us uncomfortable.
which is the hard thing and not the easy thing.
And I think the second aspect to running to the hard thing is having,
just knowing that there'll be people who support you on the other side of that
because I think that's huge.
AAG would not exist without all of the people who helped along the way
who were like, I'll wear the shirt or, you know, talked about it in rooms.
So I would say without that, it's pretty lonely and scary.
And I think that was the first part of our career.
and then once kind of representation happened, I mean, even just us teaming up, right?
It's like, it's just such a morale booster of like, okay, this is hard, but at least we're in this together.
Guys, the first ever collaboration between AAG Tiger Sisters Live podcast show.
More to come, more to come.
Yes.
I think the last thing I'll say is that it is about community.
It's like everyone in this room, like just like look around the person next to you, the people that you, the people that you,
you will meet, like before and after, we have our reciprocity ring or that board, that white
board, put down your ask.
Like, this is why we're so excited to do this live show is to meet you and also to ask and
also receive help, whether it's offer a hand or a recommendation or a babysitter or travel
wrecks, whatever it is.
Like, this is community.
This is real life.
I love it.
Something interesting has been happening lately, which is people have been telling us that
watching Tiger Sisters is like getting a free MBA.
Right, because every single Tiger Sisters episode is so well researched.
We bring case studies, we bring mini exercises, we bring frameworks from everything that
Gene and I have learned at Harvard Business School and Stanford's Business School.
Not to mention, we have incredible guests. So you guys are getting all the insights from a very
expensive education when you're listening to Tiger Sisters and just folding her laundry or
commuting to work or doing anything in the house. So big news, we also have a
companion newsletter dropping.
