Unscripted Curiosity

A Perfectly Unsurprisingly Great Conversation with Caroline Cheng

Scott & Jenn Season 1 Episode 6

In this episode of Unscripted Curiosity, we sit down with Caroline Cheng, a mental health educator with the RCMP, whose journey has taken her from science labs to forensics to the front lines of mental wellness in law enforcement. Caroline shares stories of growing up in an immigrant family shaped by academic pressure and high achievement, how she’s learning to quiet her inner critic, and why she believes curiosity and community are central to healing.

We talk about the shift from independence to interdependence, how perfectionism and cultural values can shape our mental health narratives, and the power of crying, cold plunges, and aerial circus arts as regulation tools. Caroline also reflects on integrating wellness into first responder culture, what she’s still unlearning, and the big, open-ended questions guiding her life right now.

Expect laughter, real talk, and an inspiring reminder that growth is rarely linear—and always better when shared.
