Summary

The holiday season is upon us! It’s the time of year where everyone gathers to spend time with loved ones - family, friends, and that special someone in your life. Amidst all the potlucks and parties, you may find yourself having to introduce your Significant Other to friends and family for the very first time. Or, you may have the equally intimidating task of meeting their loved ones - how can you prepare? On today’s episode, we share our tips for these first-time meetings based on our personal experiences: When is the best time to introduce your SO to family and friends? After you first start dating? Or when things get really serious? And what sort of gifts should you bring when meeting your SO’s parents for the first time? __________________________________________ Hosts: Melody Cheng, Janet Wang, Helen Wu Editor: Michelle Hsieh __________________________________________ P A R T N E R S • Vaccines: Find vaccines and boosters near you at vaccines.gov • Almost 30: Tune in wherever you listen to podcasts!
