Awww thank you Chloe 🤍
vivian is very powerful. this is the first karat podcast i've seen where the guest is leading the conversation and not the other way around
Yea- she’s great 😊 and I want to try more of these where the guest leads!
Vivian is so candid, straight to the point, and full of confidence. She is so sure of what she is saying and knows her worth and it comes off in every single sentence and decision she makes. great interview guys.
loving this interview! speaking our childhoods. So happy for her success
Love this episode because it discusses how children of immigrant parents get out of the trap of living for your parents and instead pursuing your own dreams, passions, and redefining success on your own terms!!
Omg really don’t want this podcast to end. Can listen to her experience forever. Super captivating
Loving all the last episodes. Thanks sm for sharing

This is gold
Fuck yes sister!! So inspiring 🙌🏼 you go girl! My mom put me on and tbh I am here for all of this. New fan over here ❤
Wow! I stand Vivian! ❤
40:54! THIS is so true!
very informative podcasts as usual, her level of confidence and skillset are very impressive
Thanks for watching 😊
I really need more , I am creative but for some reason I always hold my self back. Always thinking about doing something but never follow through with it.
I need a mentor and learn how to get out of this rat trap
I kissed all the right ass. i appreciate her honesty.
Water makes its own level! Point on!
She is inspiring
Life is about making money and giving people what they want.
I’m really lucky that watch this video now I know what to do in my dream heading forward ❤😢
vivian im facing what you are facing in my current role in finance too ! >< i receive sexist comments all the time. i bust my a** over a year too because i wasn't similar to him.
Omg why does her boss sound like nate from euphoria at 8:30 time stamp
I really want to know if her parents…now knowing she’s “rich”….expect money from her? My Asian parents expect me &my siblings to give them money on a recurring basis…and make negative comments if the amount is too small (in their eyes). Wonder if she has to deal with that and how does she handle it?
That’s hard :( it sounds like your parents really see monetary donation as the main way to express love. I’ve seen a lot of my friends go thru similar experiences
What a lady!
I am an immigrant mom of 2 kids in the US. even though I didn't come from poverty, I don't think I will ever feel like a belong here. So your parent might be looking over their shoulders because even though they have the blue passports, they don't feel like this is home. so they, like me, might not know where they belong anymore.
🥺 thanks for sharing and for the work you’ve done
She's magical❤ great chemistry. Kudos❤❤❤
Interesting
❤❤❤

i need timestamp for this
added!!
@@trykarat wow, thank you!
What did Vivian do at Buzzfeed?)
She did sales- so the bulk of her compensation was from commission!
wait, did she ever report this guy to hr for making sexist and racist comments??
Yes and they never did anything about it lmfao 😂
In my opinion I like the other type of thumbnail you guys use, just a preference tho
Thank you for the feedback!! Yea trying out new things 😤
@@trykaratI think it was a pun? She put up my thumbs showing her nails.
A million view is about 30$ - how many views is a million dollars? 🤔
It’s an Asian parents thing, not an immigrant thing. They will go so far as to groom you to be an ‘insurance’ for their old age as Asian kids ‘are supposed’ to take care of their parents.
A lady who works @Tiktok in LA encourages me to start using the app for my little side hustle, dog walking
My answer was, I am inept!
Thank you for acknowledging the privilege that comes with being born in the heart of the world stage. 🫶🏻
