Navigating the Intersection: Being an Ethnic Minority & a Woman
Manage episode 422802179 series 3420924
In this episode, join us as we delve into the intersection of being an ethnic minority and a woman in the professional world. Our featured guests from Zühlke, Shen Xu and Li Gardner, who are the first in their families to migrate to the UK from East Asia and are accomplished professionals in their own right, share their insights, challenges, and triumphs.
We explore the subtle nuances between being British-born and a first-generation migrant, discussing how different upbringings and educational backgrounds can shape one's experiences. Language barriers, stereotypes, and the importance of awareness are key themes as we unpack the complexities of navigating corporate environments.
From stereotypes such as the 'hardworking Asian woman' to the challenges of fitting into male-dominated work cultures, Shen and Li provide invaluable perspectives and practical advice.
Join us as we explore the power of community, the importance of self-reflection, and the journey toward authenticity in the face of cultural expectations.
