Melody Cheng, Helen Wu-Wang, and Janet Wang are the co-creators of AsianBossGirl, a multimedia company for the modern day Asian-American woman. AsianBossGirl was founded to share their experiences as 9-to-5 professional working women, balancing careers, social lives, cultural identities, and personal development while living in the city of Los Angeles. What started as a passion project podcast has turned into a multi-media business that they now run full-time. On their platforms, you’ll find conversations about the nuanced experience of being an Asian American woman navigating the corporate world as a person of color, mental and emotional health as children of immigrants, interviews with inspiring Asian women (and men), and even blind dates recorded on the mic. Their mission is to make everyday Asian-American women feel heard, seen, and connected.

episode 183: Janet’s Egg Freezing Journey - Giving Yourself Time to Start a Family
As many listeners may already know, Janet is going through the process of freezing her eggs. At the time of this episode’s release, she just finished her first cycle, and she’s planning to do 1-2 more cycles to collect additional eggs. Fertility is still a topic that is not often talked about, so today, Janet is here to share her personal experience and walk us through every step of the process: why she decided to freeze her eggs, how her day-to-day life was affected, and some helpful tips she’s learned so far in her journey. She’s here to shed light on parts of the procedure that may seem scary to some (costs, medication, etc.), the ups and downs of the egg freezing process, and how this whole experience has given her more awareness of her own body.
For more information about egg freezing and IVF, you can also listen to our episode with Dr. Huang.
