Tiffany holds a law degree from China University of Political Science and Law. Raised in a small town with a big dream, she launched her career straight into top law firms, the Big 4, and now thrives as a legal and compliance lead in fintech. A self-proclaimed “least serious lawyer,” Tiffany brings grit, humour, and heart to everything she does. She’s a debate-trained, multilingual adventurer who’s run back-to-back 55km trail races and sees every new language as a door to another world. Fluent in English and Mandarin, she’s also picking up Dutch, German, Italian, and more. Tiffany questions everything, often to her Dutch boyfriend’s amusement, and lives life full speed, sometimes barefoot, always bold.
Should we really be married and having kids bef...
Should we really be married and having kids before we’re 30? Is there a right time—or is that just an outdated idea? Many in the younger generation are starting to question the traditional path laid out by their parents. What if we want to get married later, have children later, or maybe not do either of those things at all? Is that selfish? Irresponsible? Or simply a new kind of life path that reflects changing values and realities? In this thoughtful and open discussion, we’ll explore how cultural expectations, generational pressures, and personal goals intersect when it comes to relationships, family, and the timeline of life._x000D_

This session will be hosted by Tiffany, a highly educated, adventurous Chinese woman in a loving, committed relationship with a foreign partner, and someone now feeling the pressure from her own family to marry and have children “on time.” She’ll be your guide in a warm and respectful conversation about generational gaps, cultural norms, and the emotional balancing act many of us face between personal freedom and family duty. No matter your age or background, this talk will help you reflect on your own choices and better understand the social expectations shaping our lives._x000D_

我们真的是应该在30岁前结婚生子吗?究竟有没有“正确的时间”,还是说这只是一个过时的观念?越来越多的年轻人开始质疑父母为他们设定的传统生活路径。如果我们想晚一点结婚,晚一点生孩子,或者根本不想做这两件事呢?这是自私吗?不负责任吗?还是说这仅仅是一种反映价值观和现实变化的新生活方式?在这场深思熟虑且开放的讨论中,我们将探讨文化期望、代际压力与个人目标如何在关系、家庭和生活时间线上交织。_x000D_
