# CLOSER with Rachel Lim Page: https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501 Text version: https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501.md RSS feed: https://rss2.flightcast.com/cdzgxanz9eqfjcxk8fpnb69q.xml Official site: https://rachreflects.com Author: Rachel Lim Episodes: 83 ## Resource CLOSER with Rachel Lim is about the conversations beneath the surface. Rachel sits down with people who fascinate her to explore not just what they’ve done, but what has shaped who they are: the experiences, relationships, contradictions, failures, beliefs and questions that have made them who they are today. Alongside long-form conversations are personal reflections from Rachel on what she is learning, unlearning and seeing differently in her own life. There may not always be a clear answer.. but perhaps the point is to come away seeing someone differently, seeing ourselves differently, and feeling a little closer. To ourselves. To each other. To what matters. ## Machine-readable JSON: https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501 Markdown: https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501.md ## Episodes - [Raising Conscious Humans: Raising the Child You Have, Not the Child You Want](https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501/raising-conscious-humans-raising-the-child-you-have-not-the-child-you-want) — 2026-09-15T23:45:00+00:00 - [#60: SG's Fastest Woman on What Success Never Taught Her](https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501/60-sg-s-fastest-woman-on-what-success-never-taught-her) — 2026-08-11T23:45:00+00:00 - [#59: What Success Never Prepared Me For with Ingck](https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501/59-what-success-never-prepared-me-for-with-ingck) — 2026-07-22T23:40:00+00:00 - [#58: What If Your Next Chapter Is Bigger Than You've Imagined?](https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501/58-what-if-your-next-chapter-is-bigger-than-you-ve-imagined) — 2026-07-01T23:40:00+00:00 - [#57: What 'Kiasu' Culture Is Really Costing Us with Teo You Yenn](https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501/57-what-kiasu-culture-is-really-costing-us-with-teo-you-yenn) — 2026-06-16T23:30:00+00:00 - [#56: Minister Indranee Rajah: What Does It Take to Want a Future in Singapore?](https://stenobird.com/podcast/closer-with-rachel-lim-6348501/56-minister-indranee-rajah-what-does-it-take-to-want-a-future-in-singapore) — 2026-05-19T23:30:00+00:00 - [#55: The Fertility Convo That's Long Overdue ft.
