ep. 08: reflections on growing up biracial

What defines you?

In this episode, my friend Jayden shares how being biracial and darker than her family impacted her journey to discover herself. We discuss the importance of learning to love yourself, becoming comfortable with your culture, and embracing your natural hair.

We also talk about disconnecting your identity from your ethnicity and the role of Eurocentric beauty standards in dictating “good” physical features.
