Season Three Kickoff: My Taiwanese Trauma Drama
Manage episode 427069672 series 3302283
Or ever found yourself up late at night, belting out Celine Dion songs with a new lover who feels like a mirror to your past?
Join me, Owl Medicine, as I kick off Season Three of the Speak Plainly podcast by sharing my heartfelt reflections from a recent international trip, with a special focus on an emotional and intense week in Taiwan. Together, we’ll unravel the tapestry of cultural challenges and personal connections, starting with a touching bond I formed with Will, my best friend's cousin. Despite his struggles with family expectations, career setbacks, and a painful breakup, we managed to find solace and joy in our shared moments, reflecting on how these experiences shaped our resilience.
Stay curious and stay uncomfortable.
