  • How to Have a Quarter Life Crisis
    Nov 6 2025

    Hey! We are Kristie and Chidinma! Just two girlies yapping about our times and trials of being the eldest daughters from immigrant families.

    If you don’t crash out can you truly lock in? That’s the question we pose on this episode of The Eldest Daughters, where we truly did not have it all figured out. There’s something about being in your mid-20’s that makes you want to move across the country and get bangs. Put the scissors down and chat with us as we discuss how we navigated our quarter life crisis, and how much better life is on the other side.

  • How to Date as an Eldest Daughter
    Oct 30 2025

    Hey! We are Kristie and Chidinma! Just two girlies yapping about our times and trials of being the eldest daughters from immigrant families.

    We agree - it’s rough out here in these dating streets. Unfortunately, it doesn’t get easier with age. In this episode we talk about the highs and lows (so many lows) of dating and how we think our experiences as eldest daughters and growing up with parents who had different dating expectations/experiences have influenced our approaches to dating.
