88 | Navigating India Respectfully as a Foreigner

Does India seem intimidating? Are you afraid you'll do something which may offend people when you visit? Or even if you attend an Indian function outside of India, what do you do?


In this episode, Jessica shares a number of stupid things she did and mistakes she has made over the years, with humor and lessons attached.


She also talks a fair amount about overcoming a white saviorism mentality and learning to take a back seat to Indian leadership.


Additional Resources:

  • No White Saviors - Instagram
  • Episode 41 The Indian Education System
  • Book- When Helping Hurts especially helpful if you are a person of Christian faith. But also relevant for everyone to understand basic principles of development amongst the developing communities.



We also had a mic malfunction for part of the episode. Apologize for some muffled sound in the middle.
