We brought the Unni onto the pod. This episode we're getting into the questions that don't always get asked out loud — how did your sibling order shape the way you show up in friendships? How many siblings you had, where you landed in the lineup, what role you played — it all did something to you, especially if you grew up in an immigrant family. We also reflect on how we can confront generational sin in an emotionally healthy way. Not to point fingers, but to name what was handed down so you can actually decide what continues and what stops with you. And the Enneagram? Present in all things as always. This one's reflective but it's also a starting point. The real question is — have you ever actually sat with yours? Pull up a chair. And maybe get ready to text your sibling after.

Asking Jadon and Evan a few questions about Matt on Father's Day! We love you, Appa :)

We're launching a new season of Koller Commentary — and I'm kicking it off with my girl Stephanie Kim, @tressuni. 🎙️ This episode? We went there. 🤍 Stepping into motherhood — the excitement, the nerves, all of it 🤍 Gender disappointment — and why it's okay to say that out loud to move forward 🤍 Sibling order and the impact it had on us 🤍 What we're bringing into parenting — and what stops here 🤍 The joy of growth waiting on the other side of all of it This season of Koller Commentary is for the first, second, or even third gen kid who grew up translating — not just language, but feelings, expectations, and identity — and is finally doing the work. The healing. The parenthood. The marriage. The figuring out who you are when nobody handed you a roadmap. We're going deep, but we're bringing joy with us. Late night feeds, long drives, laundry piles — pull up a chair. It's about to be a real conversation. 🎙️🤍

From LeBron to Steph to KD, we relive the epic moments and share our favorite highlights. Of course, we had to add our signature twist—breaking down some team and country dynamics through the lens of the Enneagram. What type is Jokic? How would we type each team's leadership style?

What happens when passion for Korean heritage, excellent leadership, and rooted friendship come together? In this case, it creates quite an amazing and impactful immersive Korean summer camp, Camp Hwarang, that’s shaping young minds beyond just one week. I sit down with the camp’s leaders, Hanna Chang and Hajin Yoon, to explore how their unique partnership as an Enneagram 3 and an Enneagram 1 helps them balance vision with structure, the powerful ways campers connect with their Korean heritage, the impact this has on the child and the family, and what makes this camp truly one of a kind. From navigating leadership dynamics to witnessing transformational moments, this conversation is full of inspiration for anyone passionate about culture, education, and personal growth. I left this time reflecting on how I can also do my part to bridge gaps and leave a mark to honor those who came before me and those who will remain after. 👉 Loved this episode?
