S6 E1 How Asians Grow Up

February 07, 2024 • Culturally Speaking • Season 6 • Episode 1

We’re taking it right back to the beginning for the first episode of Season 6 - growing up Asian. Were our school days on the playground footloose and carefree or full of extracurricular achievements to make Asian Tiger mums proud? Tune in to hear us recount how our formative childhood years shaped us, how the expectations of Asian parents have many similarities despite growing up in different cultures and countries. Family hierarchies and gender favoritism aren’t unique to Asians so let us know if this episode resonates with your upbringing.
