Summary: What happens when your biggest critic is you? In this raw and reflective conversation, Selyn Hong shares the messy, defining moments that pushed her from law to HR, from obligation to intention. We talk about the moment she dropped out of college to reconnect with her estranged father, how she redefined what it means to “play it safe,” and why fear can actually be a compass. This episode is about transformation—from compliance to courage.Chapters: 00:00 – The Weight of Expectations and Internal Pressure03:45 – Reaching a Breaking Point in College07:30 – Losing and Finding Her Father11:15 – A Scary But Empowering Decision to Withdraw15:00 – From Compliance to Clarity: Living Into Her Values18:30 – The Second Diagnosis That Changed Everything Again22:00 – Prioritizing People Over Prestige26:15 – From Lawyer to HR: The Unexpected Pivot30:45 – Designing Human-Centered Workplaces33:15 – Redefining Safety, Risk, and Regret34:45 – Advice to Her Younger Self: “Lean Into the Fear”Host Alexa Beavers: linkedin.com/in/alexabeaverspmpGuest Selyn Hong: linkedin.com/in/selyn-hong-b467784aExecutive Producer Jim Kanichirayil: linkedin.com/in/drjimk Music Credit: "Lost in Dreams" by Kulakovka
