Denise is such a good host! Asking all the right questions, doing all her research, and engaging yet humorous replies!
Her voice is so soothing! Love that local brands are having more presence in this world 🤓
wow, denise is such a great interviewer. especially how she was leading to a sensitive topic and tip-toeing around the interviewee's feelings that she may not be willing to share certain items. just wow, denise.
Well done Denise and team for your thorough research. Love how the questions allow Rach to share more. Hope you can invite her again to share about other insights that we may not have heard elsewhere! Well done team! Love this episode!
Marriage is a glass ball was the best 'chapter' here. Didn't really enjoy that she spoke in cliches but this chapter felt the most honest and transparent.
really loved the random self-help book debate tangent. i admire rach but her answers were sounding a bit self-helpy and preachy and so i was kinda glad jon challenged what she said, which i feel not all interviewers may be confident enough to do
Love this! More local entrepreneurs please!!
Jon Paul’s expressions throughout the podcast is literally me 😂
HAHAHAHA
I used to buy clothes from Bonito Chico in the past too. Gosh, it’s been so many years. I’m glad to see Love Bonito is thriving till this day.
The number of quotes I hear in this video is more than what i ever have heard in my life 😂
This was a great episode once againnnn. Yes the interviewing skills of the cast is really evolving and producing great results
Apart from listening to the podcast, I can’t help but notice Rachel’s glowing skin and how neat her hair is. 🤣
Appreciate Rachel's sharing here, very open and sincere. Learnt something here
This was such a beautiful episode as Rachel was so real with her experiences, kudos for that:)
Also to the hosts for doing research and giving her the safe space to be this vulnerable. Beautiful! More business owner stories please!
being an entrepreneur myself, this podcast has been really touching and relevant. thanks for sharing! please interview more business owners!
There was a time when my colleagues and I eagerly waited at 6 pm to buy Love, Bonito clothes during work, and sometimes, three of us coincidentally ended up wearing the same outfits on the same day. What draws me to LB is the model Jasmine Sim, and I consistently purchase the clothes she models. ❤
Very nice interview and refreshing to hear from Love Bonito Rachel’s experience with starting up and her personal life.
Was waiting for this interview to happen and it did ❤️
love rachel's voice! thank you for having her as i learned so much from her
Always appreciate the hwk that Denise does! Makes it pleasant to listen to 😊
Totally agree with Rachel, as a business owner myself we always try to put ourselves in our employee's shoes before other aspect of the business. For example winding up the business.
denise’s intros getting better and better HAHAHA
ikr cracked me up. soooo good
Jon's sleeve looking good omg
It's so funny because I was at TRX's Love, Bonito outlet and was wondering about the founder of this brand I TRULY ADORE of how she manages a business of this size with a marriage or relationship. How does a woman of her calibre handle these two incredibly important parts of her life. So much to learn from this podcast.
the biggest reason why i love TDK is.... the hosts can be so random & uncensored in their comments. loll.
One thing I learnt from Jon Paul is reading conversations, knowing when speak and when not to speak
Wow. What a strong and beautiful woman. Mad respect. SG pride 👍
"Type 2, Type 2." haha Love this episode & when is the enneagram episode coming out!
Such a good speaker
So interesting! Can y'all interview Joshua Chan, the Co-founder of Ergotune please? Love to hear more co-founders stories
Love this episode , and looking forward for L.Bonito menswear .
I believe working less and chill are not bad advice. We should not waste our lives hustling for stuff that don't matter. Instead, we should be relentlessly in pursuit of our life mission. Which gels nicely with the pareto principle where 80% of the outcomes are determined by 20% of the inputs. There is also some statistic that shows the diminishing impact of income and happiness. At some point, we need to decide if another bucket of gold or another hour with our family is more important.
A delightfully moderated episode, I appreciated the vulnerability and quality sharing from Rachael.
Appreciate the shoutout, John! 🫶🏼
Love this episode. Always feels so inspirited by Rachel and still can't believed I got to work with her many years ago as just a part-timer.
On a side note, If I'm not wrong, fallopian tube are actually not fix in place or directly connects to the ovary like what we see in those textbook 2D drawing. They can actually move around and pick up egg from the other ovary. So no, losing a fallopian tube doesn't make you 50% less likely to get pregnant again. It does lower the chance, but not exactly 50%.
Their prices are getting more and more expensive it’s ridiculous
👏👏👏Relatable. Looking forward to more guests :)
I used to make fun of Singaporean women being obsessed with Love, Bonitio especially the ‘live, laugh, love bonito’ herd community mentality. Ironically, I became obsessed with Love, Bonito pieces!! I have been wearing Love, Bonito pieces in the UK and I have gotten so many compliments!!
Jon's expressions are so funny, i can never go through an episode just listening on spotify instead of watching on youtube xD
I Love, Bonito flakes. Great for soup.
She’s so well spoken
First time I heard about Rachel Lim wrt to Love, Bonito. I always only related Dione Song to the business in the past.
i need to know what's that book john mentioned at 30:42!!
I think is a subtle art of not giving a fuck.
Vivocity outlet got place to sit down?
damn, her story reminds me of Anne Hathaway's character in The Intern. Just that in this case the husband didn't cheated la.
Rachel reminds me of Seina from terrace house
Who needs a degree? Look at Rachel. She so knowledgeable and well spoken. Love her sharing. Well done TDK! Rachel shares so many examples of life learnings and quotes. The one episode of TDK that I need to write notes while watching 😉
@@kelvinkwok5305 No dude.. You need to chill, lol. As well as to stop taking words literally. I can see that you don’t get it. So no point explaining and basically IYKYK. Besides, stop rephrasing other people’s comment into something else. That’s misinterpretation!
"who needs a degree" is probably an oversimplification here. degrees do not guarantee success. lack of degrees do not guarantee success either.
gotcha Jon
why jp so quiet
he sees through the polished rhetorics that she has carved throughout the years - let's leave it at that
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Algooooooooooooooo
First ❤
ya, sorry ah, but i've seen too many of these women 'girlbosses' to know that pretty much 95% of them are full of shit. the interviews and podcasts are usually marketing for their business, and to promote a fake 'you can have it all' message to young girls.
45 mins carved out just shows it's a priority, not -The- priority. which is incongruous with saying 'this is my glass ball', and definitely no where close to the 'so what if you achieve so much but in the end your marriage fails'. 45 minutes flies by leh. and what's after the 45 minutes? another call that you need to hop off to attend to? would you be thinking about the next call when there's five minutes to go? would you be saying 'oh sorry I have to wrap up soon'?
the fact is that if you prefer your work over your marriage and family. then just face it and admit it lo. e.g. outsourcing your kids to grandparents or helpers or someone else is NOT a substitute for time with them. 'it takes a village to raise a kid' is such a euphemism for 'it's mostly my village raising my kid'. yes, the child survives, have food and shelter, but let's not pretend that the relationship flourishes. children can't do without their parents, can do less without their father, but they definitely need their mother. when soldiers are lying in the ditch they don't call for their father - they call for their mother. it's just a fact that that love and bond and influence cannot be replaced.
what good is the multi-millions that you can live a few lifetimes over and never want for anything? it's the one lifetime that you need to care most about.
of course idk rachel personally. so who knows, maybe doesn't apply. but doubt it lah. unless you really outsource the business to your CEO et al to handle it, and you can be like mark zuckerberg, jeff bezos that purely act as a figurehead and don't actually run the business and can balonglong to really do whatever they want, then there's just zero way you can balance a business and family. and it seems like rachel is still quite hands on and wants to take the business to the next level.
i wish people would just apply the same standard as with men and say 'yes, a great entrepreneur, a great boss' and just don't pretend that the person is a great father or mother as well. there's a reason why so many rich families fall apart after the patriarch dies - it's because the business took that toll on the family. let's be honest and admit that these men were failures, and if we can avoid spinning bullshit to trick a new generation of girls into thinking this is the 'way to go', that would be great too.
Ok thanks nobody asked
wow, finally someone speaking sense.
I agree with you.
Surely there are the 1-5% exceptions.
But ppl take these exceptions and live by it.
Speaking generally, nothing to do with Rachel.
That is why, personally, i feel that the next generation is already screwed.

I strongly disagree with your point about how children need their mothers most, more than they need their fathers. We’ve seen generations of women (like my own mother) completely give up careers and other aspects of their life to be caretakers/homemakers. Women are constantly being told that their children need the nurturance and warmth of a mother’s love that no one else can provide. Frankly, I think that’s bullshit and fathers can AND should provide such a love as well. I hope that we can move away from such gendered ways of thinking about parenting because it places a much larger part of the parenting responsibility on mothers when fathers should be playing an equal role too.
And on what you say about holding women like Rachel to the same standard as men who neglected their families while, you forgot to acknowledge that women have significant odds stacked against them - people like you telling women that they can’t do both career and family, that their children need them the most. It was never a fair fight to begin with so why hold them to the same standard?
The way I see it is that you simply don’t agree with Rachel’s way of trying to prioritise her family. You are entitled to that opinion but let’s not make it an argument about gender. Truth be told, your comment is what sends a bad message to young girls.
"when soldiers are lying in the ditch they don't call for their father - they call for their mother."
that's because they were raised by their mother during that era. The previous era, its a very mother-centric child raising environment.
People will call out to whoever raised them. Children need a figure during their growing up lives, and this can be anyone.
Take a look at those single dad families. Children dont call up to the mother who isnt around.
"yes, the child survives, have food and shelter, but let's not pretend that the relationship flourishes"
Yea i do agree with this. Whoever raises the kid, the relationship with the kid will flourish.
Rachel is a brutal hardworker that can take it to unhealthy levels so she would take something different away from that book . jon is not that level so obviously why he doesnt see the same . none of those books actually overtly tell you to chill , dont bash the book like a badge of honor that you hustle
This. Every decision we make has an opportunity cost.
