I never dreamed of being a mom. In fact, I was told it might not even be possible. But life had other plans. From the shock of my first pregnancy to the absolute chaos of raising two kids, this episode is for anyone who’s ever felt unprepared, overwhelmed, or just really, really tired. Let’s talk about the messy, beautiful, and downright ridiculous side of motherhood.

This week’s episode of Eating My Feelings is a big one. It's the final recap of my experience on Netflix with a few more nuggets of stories thrown in.
I’m taking you behind the scenes of Crazy Delicious—what it was really like filming a cooking show while secretly 12 weeks pregnant, why I almost quit (twice), and how a single rice cooker accidentally made me Taiwan’s Light (台灣之光). Also, yes, I did make a disgusted face at a Michelin-starred chef. No regrets.
But that’s not all. I also open up a bit more on losing my love for cooking. After nearly 20 years of building my life around cooking for someone, I found myself completely uninspired in the kitchen. It wasn’t until I was invited to cook at the Taiwanese Ambassador’s residence that I finally felt that spark again.
So yeah. This one’s personal. Hope you like it!

From burnt brownies to Netflix—this week, I’m continuing the story of how I went from my little kitchen in north London to the next chapter of my cooking journey. How did I go from making inedible cookies to competing on Crazy Delicious? It all started with a small Taiwanese bento box operation, a supper club with way too many dishes on the menu, and an Instagram DM I thought was a scam. 🤦🏻‍♀️

In this episode, I dive into:

💃 That one time I was a professional flower girl… at a wedding with strippers?!
🔥 Hosting my first-ever supper club
🍱 How cooking for strangers led to unexpected opportunities

🍜 The behind-the-scenes madness of prepping dishes on the audition
📺 The moment I almost quit Crazy Delicious before it even began

This journey has been full of surprises, lessons, and plenty of kitchen disasters.
