Welcome to the Uncertain Pathfinders or UP podcast, the show where we invite listeners to "Invite Uncertainty" and "Unlock Possibility." We all know that the only certainty in life is Uncertainty (with a capital "U"--let's give Uncertainty its due respect). On this show it's our goal to befriend Uncertainty and treat it with a positive growth mindset. Uncertainty could mean disaster....it could also mean opportunity. We will hear from individuals from all walks of life to learn more about how they approach Uncertainty, as well as hearing them share personal experiences of what the process of Uncertainty was for them in the moment. Let's Press Play Together! 🎙️ 歡迎來到（Uncertain Pathfinders，簡稱 UP）Podcast 這是一個邀請聽眾 「邀請不確定」 與 「解鎖新可能」 的節目。 我們都知道，人生唯一的確定，就是「不確定」。（既然如此，就讓我們給這個大寫的「不確定」應有的尊重。） 在這個節目中，我們的目標是與「不確定」交朋友，並以正向成長的心態去面對它。 因為不確定，也許意味著危機……但同時，它也可能代表著機會。 在這裡，你將聽到來自各行各業的真實聲音，分享他們如何面對「不確定」，以及他們在當下經歷這段過程時的心路歷程。 🎧 讓我們一起 Press Play！

That Uncertain Inner Child (with Raven)
Welcome to the Uncertain Pathfinders (UP) podcast, where we ask listeners, cohosts, and guests to invite Uncertainty and unlock possibility. (中文往下👇） On this episode, cohosts Jeffrey and Miranda welcome Raven into the studio. Raven is an artist and Mindfulness & Life Coach helping people reconnect with their inner voice, navigate emotions, and cultivate presence in daily life through guided meditation and one-on-one coaching. She is the founder of Visiting Now, a brand built on the power of presence. It is a practice of visiting life, inviting you back to the "now." On this episode, Raven shares her own journey with Uncertainty, a journey that was predicted to end over a decade ago. Ever since then, Raven has been "living beyond the script," and given multiple chances in the "video game of life." She talks about discoveries made while traveling, the video game philosophy of life, poor advice given by HR managers, and her connection with music, art, and the beauty of all things. She also reminds us to stay in touch with the inner child that resides in us all.

Uncertain Fish Out of Water: 不確定的離水之魚 （中文為主）
在這一集的 Uncertain Pathfinders Podcast 中，我們展開一場有點不一樣的對話——這次的起點，不是來自職場上的連結，而是來自一段更貼近生活的人際關係。（English Below) 在這集以中文為主的節目中，我們邀請到的來賓是魚魚老師，她曾是主持人 Jeffrey 女兒的幼兒園老師。當我們得知她即將離開教職，踏上一條全新的道路——進入室內設計領域時，也引發了一個問題： 👉 當我們像「離水之魚」一樣跳出舒適圈，去迎接新的挑戰時，那會是什麼樣的感受？ 在這段對話中，Jeffrey、Miranda 和魚魚老師，一起探索轉換跑道所帶來的不確定性、重新成為新手所需要的勇氣，以及在全然陌生的環境中，如何面對那種「格格不入」的感覺。 我們談到她對教學的熱愛、個人價值與家庭期待之間的拉扯，以及那些看似安靜卻深具力量的練習——像是寫日記，如何幫助她在過程中持續與自己保持連結。 在對話的過程中，我們也輕鬆地延伸到「小費包」的哲學，並一起思考：當我們逐漸長大，該如何持續學習、成長，並勇敢地挑戰自己。 這是一段關於轉變、關於自我認同，以及關於那些夾在其中的過渡空間的故事——在這些空間裡，「不確定」始終扮演著重要的角色。 🔗連結： Uncertain Pathfinders website Uncertain Pathfinders IG 魚魚老師IG Connect with Uncertain Pathfinders In this episode of the Uncertain Pathfinders Podcast, we step into a different kind of conversation—one that begins not from a professional network, but from personal connections. On today's Chinese-language episode, our guest, 魚魚老師, was the previous preschool teacher to the daughter of one of our hosts, Jeffrey. When we learned she would be leaving teaching to pursue a new path in interior design, it sparked questions: 👉 What does it feel like to suddenly jump out our zone of comfort to pursue new challenges, like a fish out of water? In this conversation, Jeffrey, Miranda, and 魚魚老師 explore the Uncertainty of changing careers, the courage it takes to become a beginner again, and what it means to feel like a “fish out of water” in a completely new environment. We talk about her love for teaching, the tension between personal values and family expectations, and the quiet practices—like journaling—that help her stay connected to herself along the way. Along the journey, we even take a playful detour into the philosophy of 小費包, and reflect on what it means to keep learning, growing, and challenging ourselves as we get older. This is a story about transition, identity, and the spaces in between—where Uncertainty plays a major role. 🔗Links: Uncertain Pathfinders website Uncertain Pathfinders IG 魚魚老師IG Connect with Uncertain Pathfinders Leave a comment and share your thoughts: https://open.firstory.me/user/cm81rx1oo07d7012vcyv33asu/comments

(中文往下👇） This episode is Part 2 of our series, “Spotlight on Uncertainty: Joyful Curiosity,” released in the lead-up to Mental Health Awareness Month. As part of this series, we’re highlighting perspectives from mental health professionals on how we can better understand and navigate uncertainty in our lives. In Part 1, we heard from mindfulness practitioners John Ho, Bernice Chai, and Joanna Chen, who shared their experience collaborating on a mindfulness workshop at COSCUP Taiwan 2025, a major open-source technology conference.

In this episode, we continue that story with licensed art therapist Stephy Hsu, joining us remotely from Vancouver. Stephy shares her personal journey with uncertainty, her work in art therapy, and her perspective that uncertainty is always present—the key lies in how we choose to respond to it. We also explore her upcoming transition into entrepreneurship as she prepares to launch Soulverse in May 2026. 🎧 Tune in to hear how creativity, mindfulness, and “joyful curiosity” can transform our relationship with uncertainty.
