Episode 167: Our Changing Asian American Identities

As we evolve as humans, it’s only natural that our identities evolve with us - from growing into new roles (like becoming a mother) to deepening existing ones (like becoming a confident entrepreneur), our identities are ever-changing. Today we’re going to talk about the cultural component of our identities - our relationship with our Asian & Asian-Americanness. We recorded an episode a few years ago talking through this exact topic (Ep 64). However, with the spread of hate crimes against Asians throughout the pandemic, and after co-hosting a podcast for Asian American women for 5 years now, it’s no surprise that our relationships with our identities as Asian Americans have evolved. Today, we want to explore what it means to us, in this moment in time, to be Asian, American, and Asian American.  This month, we are working with Old Navy on a campaign to celebrate our AAPIHM heritage. We are so pleased to be partnering with them on this very important conversation, so thank you, Old Navy, for sponsoring this episode.
