S3E1: Finding the self between borders We are here, too - on mental health abroad
-
- 정신 건강
Emerging from a long hiatus, I, Francesca, return to the microphone with a tale that resonates deep within the heart of anyone who's ever found themselves rooted in foreign soil. This episode peels back the layers of identity shaped by the lands we call home and the internal tug-of-war between assimilation and authenticity.
This conversation is a gentle nudge to embrace the richness of our heritage and the unique stories it weaves into our lives. It's about finding strength in our foreignness, allowing the cultural friction to propel us toward growth rather than erode our sense of self. Join me as we tenderly nurture our foreign identities and celebrate the diversity they bring to the tapestry of life.
Two questions lie behind it all: how much of me am I willing to sacrifice to adapt? For how long am I going to hide the pain behind the quest for adaptation?
