What does the world feel like to a 15-year-old today?
In this episode, host Nicole Lee speaks with Joshua Goh, a student from National Junior College in Singapore, about growing up in a time of rapid technological change, rising competition, and the pressure to figure out the future earlier than ever.
They talk about AI, school, emotional intelligence, and career paths — and the deeper tension between wanting to enjoy being a kid and feeling the need to prepare for what lies ahead.
This isn’t a conversation about having all the answers at 15. It’s a conversation about curiosity, self-awareness, and how the next generation is making sense of the world around them.
