casual cry club

This episode started with a simple question: Are we actually productive... or are we just very good at looking productive? 👀 Somewhere along the way, we became the kind of people who buy planners, make elaborate to-do lists and create screen time limits (which we continue to ignore anyway). In this episode: • The productivity systems, planners and life hacks we've enthusiastically adopted and...

This episode, we fully lean into our 2026 goal: becoming haters. We’re sharing our most honest (and slightly chaotic) unpopular opinions on trends, lifestyle and things everyone seems to love... but we just don’t get. Take it with a pinch of salt, we’re just your online besties being a bit judgemental over coffee ☕ (or matcha?) In this episode: • Why every home looks like Japandi / Wabi-Sabi now...

New year, new goals… but make it slightly delusional. In this episode of Casual Cry Club, we came together and caught up about the very serious goals we have for 2026, from personal growth to completely unserious life ambitions. From trying to embody top management energy at work to deciding it’s finally time to stop doom-scrolling before bed (maybe), we share the goals we’re actually trying to st...

It finally happened: Sherry has quit her job 😱 In this episode, we talk honestly about what pushed us to leave our jobs: months of anxiety, crying at work, losing sleep, bad managers, micromanaging, and that constant feeling of being triggered by every message from your boss. We unpack the red flags we ignored, the internal struggle of staying vs quitting (especially in Singapore where quitting f...

In the final episode of our travel series, we’re wrapping things up by sharing our travel highlights and comparing what it’s actually like getting around overseas versus back home in Singapore. We talk about scary encounters while travelling at night, including being watched in train stations of unfamiliar cities. From there, we get into the everyday stuff that really shapes a trip: food, transpor...

Travelling with family is already chaotic. But now add foggy mountains, surprise costs, and a very convincing tour guide. In Part 2 of our family travel series, Sunny shares how a Zhangjiajie tour slowly turned into a series of tourist traps: cable cars that doubled the price of a tour package, mountains you couldn’t see because of fog, being locked in a “no-shopping” tea experience, and parents c...

Travelling with family sounds cute and wholesome… until you’re actually in it. In Part 1 of this two part series, we’re sitting down to debrief our recent family trips. No romanticising, just the real mess. 😉 In this episode, we talk about: ✈️ • Sunny’s family trip to China featuring zero food planning, altitude sickness, lost luggage at a chaotic train station, and trying to survive travel admin...

Welcome back to another episode of “we’re grown adults but somehow still living like teenagers.”This week, we’re talking about the Asian rite of passage no one prepares you for: being in your late 20s/30s and still living at home — with absolutely zero privacy, zero boundaries, and zero chance of closing a door without someone opening it 5 minutes later. Here’s what we get into:• growing up with 1...

Welcome back to Part 2 of our “rock bottom era" (yikes) This week, Sherry confesses how she somehow ended up seeing three different therapists, while Sunny admits she fully treated ChatGPT like her personal psychologist: analysis, life direction, emotional dumping and all. We also get into: • The office heart-to-hearts we hoped would “fix everything”... until they didn’t • Turning work perks...

Welcome back to another episode of 'our lives are falling apart but at least we have each other.' 🥲 This week, we’re talking about our low points in life - but don’t worry, it’s not that deep. Sherry shares how changing roles at work somehow unlocked a new skill: crying in office meeting rooms. And Sunny talks about getting retrenched, ending up in a job she hated, and suddenly developing...

💔 We always say we would never stay in a toxic relationship… until we do. In this raw and honest episode, we open up about the abusive and toxic relationships we found ourselves in: how they started with “love bombing” and ended with fear, shame, and finally, freedom. Sunny shares her story of dating someone who slapped his own mother, controlled her daily life during exchange, left her cruel “te...

Welcome to our first episode! We’re Sherry and Sunny, two girls who went from intern vs arrogant senior to retrenched office besties. We share how we met, roast each other’s toxic traits (from Sherry saying “skinny legend” unironically to Sunny going to the temple for every problem), and reveal our quirks: bad memory, bad sense of direction, and more. We talk about why we started this podcast, our...
