Celebrating the Military Child with Michaela Nee

MESSAGE ME HERE!April is the month of the military child, and my guest this week talks about her unique experiences and how they have led her down the path of being an advocate for others. Michaela currently lives in San Francisco living & working in San Francisco and is working for a study abroad nonprofit bringing college & graduate students from US and international universities to the Bay Area for internships. Her education is in international studies & French, and she has a Masters in Nonprofit Administration. She grew up as a mixed kid in a military family and has experienced the ambiguity and difficulties of being mixed in a lot of places throughout the US, in addition to what it's like to be mixed while traveling internationally in various regions of the world. Like a lot of mixed people, she grew up never quite belonging to either side of my identity and have gone through different phases of acceptance/denial/wrestling with who she is and what exactly who she is "supposed" to be. Join us for her story!If this is your first time with OTC, check out  EPISODE 1: START HERE for more background on the show.
