Hyphenated Identity Broadcast

What happens when four women take up space in their identity? What happens when they are seen and heard? This podcast embraces the contradiction of being able to button up and button down in multiple worlds. Of understanding Brooklyn and Barbados. Miami and Trinidad. Corporate America and Caribbean family politics. Respectability and rebellion. Tradition and reinvention. The Caribbean has always been more than beaches, rum, and music. It has been labor, migration, survival, politics, empire, and global influence. Here we let the food touch. These ladies explore their lived experience when navigating identity, family, dating, career pivots, culture, integration, and Americanism across their 20s, 30s, and 40s. A conversation about everything and nothing through the lens of women connected by lineage but shaped by Caribbean and American culture in different ways. One episode might unpack cultural expectations and citizenship. Another might spiral into why parents think every job should be a government job. Then somehow end with dating men who “love the culture” a little too much. No forced accents. No watered-down identity. No “curry chicken” gimmicks. Just Women of a Caribbean American identity being honest, funny, layered, and unapologetic about what it means to exist between cultures without hiding either one; A cultural experience Where does my "Americanness" start? Where does my "Caribbeanness" end? Why am I separating them?
