Identify Yourself - The Podcast

Clancy Ryan

Where am I from, you ask? My parents are gypsies at heart and when they got the itch to move to another corner of the world, I’d pack up my little suitcase and get ready to carve out another little space for myself in a brand new country. I loved moving! But the problem with feeling comfortable everywhere is that you belong nowhere. And so now at 23, I’m very culturally confused. This podcast will feature fabulous guests chatting about their own struggles and experiences with cultural identity.
