Like many of us, Maggy Wang grew up with radio. There is something so comforting in hearing familiar voices discussing trending topics, hosting segments on local interests, or making quips before cueing in popular tunes. \u201cIt was my first love,\u201d she says, describing the joy she felt working in radio as a university student, after years of practising in front of a mirror.<\/p>\n\n

Today, she is a host, podcaster, and content creator. Wang takes time out of her busy schedule to sit down with BAZAAR<\/i>. Her demeanour is relaxed, despite her considerable to-do list. She is wearing the Vanguard Lady Crazy Hours Jisbar\u2013available at Franck Muller by Cortina Watch, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.<\/p>\n\n

For the modern audience, Wang has brought the inquisitive spirit of radio and adapted it for her podcast, Head Over Heels. With this new form of media, however, she wants to go deeper. \u201cI wanted to explore something more meaningful, especially in the conversations. The idea was to become \u2018the voice I never had\u2019,\u201d she says. The podcast launched in 2020; episodes are hour-long segments touching on a range of different topics, from women-specific issues and mental health to career advice. She would have these discussions with subject matter experts; or sometimes, sit with her microphone to record reflections on her own experiences. Equal parts entertaining and enlightening, Head Over Heels has become one of Malaysia\u2019s most popular podcasts.<\/p>\n\n

There are only so many hours in a day and Wang feels that all that time should not be spent \u201cswiping aimlessly\u201d on short form content every single day. She embodies the philosophy of our Make Every Second Count campaign, in partnership with Franck Muller by Cortina Watch.<\/p>\n

Wang gives BAZAAR <\/i>an insight into how a Head Over Heels podcast episode comes together. \u201cIt begins with a brainstorming session. We\u2019ll go back and forth with ideas, which can take up to weeks, but there are some ideas that can be finalised within a day because we know exactly what we want to do or who we want to speak to,\u201d she begins. Then, the idea is fleshed out and an intense period of research ensues, followed by the writing of a rough script.<\/p>\n\n

She caveats: \u201cWe make sure that every guest that we bring on is able to carry a conversation beyond the script. I would say that some of the best conversations we have had on the podcast are completely unscripted!\u201d<\/p>\n\n

The feeling of pride she feels after launching every episode makes the \u201csleepless nights of researching, studying, editing, and copywriting\u201d worth it, especially as she is able to connect with her audience. \u201cI have made it a point to be intentional and impactful with everything that I choose to do,\u201d she says, emphasising the importance of fostering a healthy relationship with her listeners and building a community of like-minded individuals.<\/p>\n\n

Building on the idea of spending time meaningfully, Wang has found ways to take the Head Over Heels podcast offline. She hosts in-person activations such as a girls\u2019 trip to Vietnam to take on the Ha Giang Loop or the annual community-led Heelers House, where Wang meets with listeners to answer their questions, hear their stories, and facilitate interesting conversations.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cI was working towards the goal of being \u2018the voice I never had\u2019, and now that I have found it, there is no stopping me,\u201d concludes Wang.<\/p>\n\n
