    Episode 4: The American Dream

    The so-called American Dream is supposed to promise opportunity, but for many of us, it comes with invisible walls and generational debt. In this episode, Lucas and Min dismantle the mythology of the Dream and look at what it really means for people navigating systemic barriers. With honesty and insight, they challenge listeners to rethink success and imagine a future built on community, not compliance.

    Lucas and Dr. Jung Min Choi explore how imposter syndrome shows up in the lives of people of color—especially in creative and academic spaces that weren’t built for us. They share vulnerable reflections on what it feels like to question your place and your worth, and unpack how colonialism, racism, and capitalism fuel that inner voice of doubt.
