Thinking about things

But generally about my podcasts and YouTube channel

So, you know, I’ve been thinking a lot about my podcast and my YouTube channel, how my audience still feels very broad, like almost too broad. And if I’m being totally honest, I’m not entirely sure what I’m doing yet or exactly where this is going. I do have a direction and there is an end goal in mind, but it is still a bit blurry. What I do know is this I think I want to speak to people like me. People who spent part of their childhood in Korea. Um, but raised generally in places like Canada, the US or the UK, say in an English speaking environment. Um, people who studied, worked and built their lives in English, but were raised by Korean parents with Korean values and expectations and emotional language. So on the outside, you function completely fine in a Western world, but internally, there’s still a very strong Asian framework shaping how you think, how you relate, how you make decisions, how you build your relationships. Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And I think a lot of us live in that in-between space. Not fully one thing, not fully the other. Sometimes that feels confusing. Sometimes it feels like you have to choose. But maybe we don’t. Maybe we don’t have to let go of our Korean identity to live fully in our Western world. And maybe we don’t have to force ourselves to fit neatly into one box, one category Korean or Canadian or American or this or that. And what if the space in between is actually where we belong? I think that’s the conversation I want to explore here. That’s the conversation that I think a lot of us would be interested in. Um, yeah, so think about that. Bye bye.
