Here, There, and Everywhere: Leni’s Story

Tell Us Your Wait... What's Next?What does it mean to grow up caught between cultures, languages, and worlds, and still carve out a space that feels like yours? In this week’s episode of Wait… What’s Next?, Laura flips the script and interviews co-host Leni about her story as a first-gen daughter of immigrants. From navigating college without a roadmap, to stepping into the startup world without a guidebook, Leni opens up about what it means to live in-between, not fully from here, not fully from there, but somehow building everywhere.We talk about:Growing up in-between cultures and identitiesBuilding confidence when you don’t have the blueprintWhy being scrappy isn’t just survival — it’s a superpowerHow belonging is less about fitting in and more about creating your own table It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s a story so many will recognize: finding strength in the spaces where you never quite felt like you belonged.Wait...
