The Halfachickenlaksa Show
Podcast Description
Like many people living with ADHD, I was left feeling dissatisfied and uncertain in life—so I took a leap of faith. In 2025, with encouragement from close friends, I created The Halfachickenlaksa Show—a long-form conversation podcast designed to engage, inform and perhaps inspire others. With a background in school-teaching and psychotherapy, and a deep curiosity to understand what makes people tick, I sit down with fascinating people and attempt to uncover what drives them, trying to understand how we can all live richer, and more fulfilling lives.
