    Mind Games (ft. Nanseera Wolff)

    When TCKs grow up in a world that is constantly changing without having anyone explain what is going on in the process can leave a child believing a lot of different things about themselves. Today guest, fellow TCK and singer-songwriter, Nanseera Wolff shares her stories of growing up TCK and how she deals with the different games her mind plays when navigating the world around her. Nanseera is a Nashville-based singer-songwriter with an old soul and a distinctive style. The London born performer grew up in Uganda and Ethiopia, moving to the United States for high school and university. Taking inspiration from artists like Tracy Chapman, Lianne LaHavas, and Sheryl Crow, Nanseera weaves together poetic stories of losing home, love, and sense of self, then somehow finding them again.
