Pride vs. Shame Ep.02
from First Gen Second Thoughts Hosted by First Gen Second Thoughts
In this episode, we dive into the complex emotions of pride and shame within the immigrant family dynamic. We explore how the pressure to succeed—from that first “Student of the Month” assembly to the weight of being a “cash cow” after graduation—can shape our identities and our relationships. This is a candid conversation about finding the courage to disappoint those we love in order to finally find ourselves, and learning that holding family accountable isn’t “mean”—it’s necessary.
