In this episode, we have a special guest, Grace Motahari, who shares her personal story of navigating the challenges of informing her middle eastern parents of her decision to change her career path away from medicine. Growing up in a collectivistic culture, Grace faced difficulties in expressing her desire to deviate from the traditional path of becoming a doctor, which her parents had envisioned for her. Despite initially facing resistance, Grace was able to effectively communicate her true passion for wedding planning to her parents, ultimately leading to their full support and understanding. Through Grace's experience, this podcast aims to empower its audience to find the courage to have difficult conversations with their families about career changes and discover their own true passions.
