Ever wonder what happens beneath the surface of an immigrant's journey? Our latest conversation pulls back the curtain on the unspoken realities of building a new life in Canada.

Take a seat at our table as we explore those quintessential immigrant moments that shape identity from the confusion when "vegetarian" suddenly has a whole new meaning (no, fish is not vegetarian!) to the triumph of bringing family members across oceans to share in a hard-won dream. Our guest opens up about navigating cultural transitions while staying true to core values, sharing how refusing to compromise led to unexpected rewards despite being told to simply "aim for passing."

The conversation weaves through nostalgic memories of comfort foods (makki di roti with sarsu da saag, anyone?), the transformative power of finding your people in a new country, and those magical Canadian winter moments that somehow feel both foreign and familiar. We dive into the delicate art of unlearning how letting go of previous certainties creates space for reinvention and growth.

What emerges is a thoughtful reflection on the immigrant experience as not just a personal journey but a collective contribution to something larger. Each story, each struggle, each small victory adds another drop to an ocean of shared experience that creates more welcoming spaces for future generations. As our guest beautifully puts it, success isn't just about making it individually, it's about creating "a better space for each other to thrive in."

Listen in and perhaps discover parts of your own story reflected in these honest exchanges about finding your place in a new world.
