So, are all asians good at maths and studying to become doctors or engineers whilst being super timid & quiet with a love for anime?
In this episode we deep dive into the stereotypes associated with being a good asian and deduce whether we're good or bad?
From studying the Asian 5 to typical Asian career choices, and being a goody two-shoes who loves all things Asian to being frugal; we uncover the common pressures from society that has shaped our decisions and impacted our search for validation as Asian Australians.
