What My Life Would Look Like If I Never Moved to America

In this episode, I reflect on the life I might be living if I had stayed in my home country.

From chasing the American Dream to questioning who I would be today, this conversation explores the paths not taken, the sacrifices made, and the growth that comes from starting over in a new country. Whether you’re an immigrant, a first-generation kid, or someone who’s ever wondered how one choice can reshape an entire life, this episode will hit home.

Now settle in, get cozy, and grab your chai. 💛
