Cross-cultural Stories

Episode 016 Global Roots: A Chinese Scientist's Search for Belonging (English)

31 Oct 2025

Description

In this special episode, the tables are turned as podcast host Ray, me, becomes the interviewee. Gently guided by Stanford volunteer Brad's insightful questions, I open up about my journey across three cultures: China, South Korea, and the United States. I share my upbringing in China's Henan province, how living in Korea helped me find a self that felt "seen," and my navigation between career and passion as a research professional. I delve into why living abroad strengthened my connection to my Chinese roots and what ultimately inspired me to create a podcast dedicated to capturing cross-cultural stories. This is more than a personal narrative; it's a genuine conversation about identity, belonging, and the pivotal turns in life's path. I hope this episode could resonate you whoever you are.
