Episode 29: Big City. Bigger Lessons. She's Back.
What does it mean to chase your dreams… and almost lose yourself in the process?
In this episode, Priya & Priyanka sit down for a long-overdue catch-up as Priyanka returns to Singapore for her summer break.
Five months in New York — a city built on ambition and constant motion — brought more than just culture shock.
From financial shocks and emotional burnout to family guilt and quiet moments of doubt, Priyanka opens up about what really went down behind the skyline.
Together, the PRI-TEA ladies explore the hidden costs of staying strong — the power of finally saying: “I wasn’t okay.”
Because sometimes, the biggest lessons don’t come from the big city. They come from starting over — 9,530 miles away from everything you’ve ever known.
