#61 - The Truth About the Entertainment Industry with Steven Lim (@stevenkwlim)

Perfectly Imperfect with Christine and Regina

From making videos in his apartment in Ohio to having one of the most popular shows on Buzzfeed, Steven Lim has done it all. After giving up his “stable” career in engineering to pursue the entertainment industry, he found himself in the spotlight living the LA dream he had spent years wishing for. He started to pave the way for Asian American representation and creating content that brought joy to others. Though he seemingly got everything he had hoped for, it didn’t take long for him to become jaded and confused. This week, we talk to our dear friend Steven about the trials and tribulations he went through while working in this seemingly picturesque industry, and why it ultimately led him to take a mental breather in NYC. What are the biggest differences between east and west coast? Is everyone in the industry really that terrible? How has his mindset changed about the industry since starting it a decade ago?
