Episode 32: 2024 Reflections & Manifesting My Dream Life
About this podcast
Hi! It's Mel. As the youngest & baby of the ABG trio, I have a lot of questions about everything. I've been told I ask the things people are afraid to ask (because they're afraid to look dumb 😅). In this show, there is no such thing as dumb questions ;) and just an exploration of my curiosity about life. From those random shower thoughts, that personal question buried deep, to those random in between moments, we’re going to explore all of those in No Dumb Questions with Mel.
No Dumb Questions with Mel is part of the AsianBossGirl network.
