In Episode 49, Mayank and Sunny sat down with incredibly energetic, dynamic duo Tiana and Thuy Nguyen! These lovely people are the hosts of their very own podcast 'Unapologetically Asian' where they have honest and candid conversations about adulting, careers, relationships and everything in between. They started the podcast to share their perspectives and stories about navigating through adulthood as Asian Australians with a hope of creating content that is relatable and representative of their community.
In this conversation we chatted on quite a few topics:
💡Dialogue around mental health whilst growing up in a South-East asian household
💡 The humble beginnings of creating their own podcast and following living out their own mission and vision
💡 Experiencing racism and methods to deal with racist behaviour
Available on Spotify and Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts!
