#20. Part2. Are You Shrinking Your Cultural Identity to Fit In? Here’s What Expat & Immigrant Women Must Hear
Your origin story is not something to hide—it's the very thing that makes you powerful.
Host Yolanda shares the raw truth; It's precisely because you come from somewhere else that you offer something rare and irreplaceable. A soul to be connected with and enjoyed just as you are, for your mind, your excellence and for your origin. Experiences of being 'othered' are not supposed to break you, but they are tools for advocacy and leadership. Tools for equipping you naturally to speak up, to mentor and support others who feel misunderstood or underestimated or unseen.
