Every story has a beginning. This is ours. In our very first episode, we're pulling back the curtain on At the Root. What it is, why it exists, and the people behind it. Joined by David Kwok from YSpace and Agnes Lan from Change Connect, we sit down for a Q&A on how this podcast came to life and what we hope it becomes. At the Root is a podcast celebrating the stories, flavours, and voices behind the table; launching in honour of Asian Heritage Month as a space to honour culture, community, and the roots that shape us. This is just the beginning. Pull up a chair. David Kwok: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidkwokk/ Agnes Lan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/agneslan/ YSpace: https://www.linkedin.com/company/yspa...

    Episode 2 At the Root Feat. Clement Chu

    What if your community organization led to becoming best friends with Simu Liu and Jeremy Lin? In this episode, we sit down with Clement, a community builder, connector, and the man behind Asian Roots Collective ARC (formerly CCYAA) to hear how a scrappy basketball league born in 1995 evolved into one of the most dynamic Asian Canadian community platforms around. From co-branding with the Toronto Raptors to producing high-profile events, Clement shares the mindset shifts, unexpected opportunities, and values-driven relationships that shaped his journey. Whether you're trying to build your network, find your cultural footing, or just figure out how to say "yes" more often, this one's for you.
