Own Your Heritage. It Matters. (ft. Spandana Gopal) | Ep. 38

Naturally, I think we’re all a little afraid of standing out from the rest of the crowd. Naturally, when you stand out, you’re open for criticism. Yet, so many of us come from places, cultures, and circumstances that others simply can’t relate to. So, what should you do? Blend in or shout every chance you get? We like to think there’s a lot of middle ground that’s worth exploring. So, this week, we invited Spandana Gopal, founder of Tiipoi to have a conversation about Indian design, cultural appropriation, and how we can all share parts of who we are through our work. If you’re someone who has been looking for a way to share more about your specific upbringing, nationality, or ethnicity, this episode was made just for you. Tune in.
