In this heartfelt conversation, we sit down with Jessica Kumar, an American who built a life and identity across two cultures. Jessica opens up about her journey of adapting to India, navigating a cross-cultural marriage, and finding connection through language and community. From the challenges of communication to the joy of belonging in two worlds, she shares the lessons she’s learned about identity, empathy, and embracing difference. Jessica is a storyteller, podcaster, and Hindi language educator who has spent years living in India. Her passion for cultural connection and cross-cultural understanding has shaped her life and work — inspiring others to see the beauty in bridging worlds. She also opens up about her unexpected passion for learning Hindi, and how that journey transformed from personal discovery to purpose, helping others learn to speak, think, and feel in Hindi while understanding the deeper nuances of Indian culture. Key Takeaways * The realities and rewards of living cross-culturally * How language can open doors to deeper connection * Finding identity and belonging in a multicultural family * Why embracing both cultures strengthens relationships Connect with the guests: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/IndiaWithJessica Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IndiaWithJessica Website: https://learn-hindi-anywhere.teachable.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@IndiaWithJessica Tik Tok: http://tiktok.com/@indiawithjessica Please help the voices of our guests be heard by sharing this podcast with your friends and family.
