Meera Patel
Hey you! Thanks for coming thru. I'm Meera. My accomplishments include immigrating to US by myself at 15, being a therapist to my friends and having a yearly identity crisis. I'm a 23 year old attempting to connect deeper, learn and share. I'm gonna be talking about immigration experiences, cultural shocks, intersectionality of identities (woah big words I know), personal growth and just random BS sometimes. I'm still figuring it out.

Observations & experiences of your young immigrant
What's good homies? This episode is less informational and more observational- from a baby Meera's point of view (ok teen Meera but same thing). I just talk about things I noticed as a high school student and experiences as I processed them. I also briefly talk about my mathematical language barrier and Troy Bolton heartbreak deal (it was tough).  Psssst. Can you also PLEASE rate me & write me an itty bitty review? I wanna hear from you! And it kinda helps me a LOT.

Stereotypes with masala
Ever have friends or relationships betray you? Yes? Well guess what won't betray you? STEREOTYPES! No matter where you go stereotypes will remain with you forever. With a twist tho. Intercultural stereotypes. So stereotypes WITHIN the desi community.  Also... If you enjoy this episode PLEASE rate and review this episode. Helps me out a lot.

Identities and the 'in-betweens'
Have you ever felt like you just didn't 'FIT IN'? Or that you feel double overwhelmed because of multiple aspects of your identity? Or that you didn't completely identify with just ONE identity (wya my first & second gen immigrants)? I'm here to explore this concept that might just blow your mind- intersectionality of identities.  You can find the sources here (as I promised on my episode)- https://chaispicedchats.com/2022/01/26/identities-and-the-in-betweens/ Oh also. Do you like my episode? Can you take maybe 20 seconds of your time and fill this out? It might just help me get our podcast funded!!  https://www.podcash.com/love-letters/p44fa --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/meera-patel3/support
