In this episode of The Empathy Project, I sit down with Wezizwe O’Driscoll — a young woman navigating life, identity, and self-discovery in Taiwan. We talk about the growing pains of building a life abroad, navigating grief and loss away from home, and the quiet weight of shame so many young women carry without naming it.

From culture shock to celebration, Wez takes us through the messy, honest middle of her journey — and where she’s landed: grounded, graceful, and at peace with who she’s becoming.

Note: this episode has a few audio imperfections due to technical issues during recording — but the conversation itself is one every young woman should hear.
