Immigrants start at the ground level yet are expected to meet shoulder to shoulder with their peers on every level. That’s why episode 3 of The Navigating Culture Podcast is about taking control of immigrant stereotypes!

In this episode of The Navigating Culture Podcast, Akanksha Aurora shares the importance of being proud of who you are and how she finds her ability to code switch a privilege, not a disadvantage. Some of the talking points Akanksha and I go over in this episode include:
- Code switching as a way to not fall victim to the stereotypes of immigrants but to regain control of what parts of you the world is allowed to see.
- The lack of immigration representation in the media and how Akanksha’s goal is to change this.
- The concept of being a “good immigrant” and the expectations and burdens that are behind this.
- Staying true and authentic to the person you were born to be while paving a new pathway to your dreams.
There's a lot of power in being able to control your own narrative and how people see you.
Remember, we are living by the mantra, “Who Cares What Aunty Thinks, Live Your Life.”
