Growing up in a world where stereotypes about Asian individuals are rampant, it's easy to feel lost and struggle with self-doubt. Many of us are constantly trying to find where we truly belong, battling the labels and expectations society imposes on us. In this episode, we delve into the journey of finding one's sense of belonging and overcoming the deep-seated self-doubt that comes with growing up amidst these stereotypes. We are joined by a special guest, Danny Tseng. As a successful architect and co-founder of Syllable, an award-winning design firm in Canada, Danny shares his journey of finding his sense of belonging and overcoming self-doubt in a world that often imposes stereotypes on Asian individuals.
