๐ŸŽ™๏ธToday, I sat down with Urmi, a 2nd-generation migrant who shares her fascinating journey from life in Italy to building her second home in Canada. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡นโžก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ


We dive into what it really means to leave one country and start fresh in another โ€” from the culture shocks ๐Ÿ˜ฒ, lifestyle changes, and the languages we dream and think in, to figuring out where we truly belong.


Urmi opens up about seeing the world through the eyes of a migrant, how she defines "home"ย  (1st and 2nd home)๐Ÿก, and the surprising ways our identities evolve when we're caught between 2 cultures.

She also shared some invaluable tips towards the end of the episode for anyone considering a big move! โœˆ๏ธ
