Welcome to the Two Suitcases Podcast, where we explore the Immigrant Experience. As teenagers, we moved from Zambia to the US with just Two Suitcases and a heart full of hope. As third culture kids, we explore immigrant stories and discuss topics transcending borders and cultures, topics that seemingly have little room in our social discourse within immigrant communities. Join us for these conversations, come unpack with us!

Balancing Identities | Pt. 2 | A Motherless Tongue

Our worldly experiences are reflected in how we speak – our Language, Accents & Pronunciations. We are constantly adapting to the society we find ourselves in. The ways we assimilate into different societies leave behind an imprint on our language, our accents, and our diction. The way we speak is probably one of the main ways we either associate or differentiate from those around us – it’s one of the main ways we define ourselves.


In this episode, we explore the phonetic footprints from our journey as third-culture kids. How they came about, and why they define us. As bilingual immigrants, we also unpack our complicated experiences with the languages. What language did we grow up speaking? What language do we express our deepest vulnerabilities in? What is actually our mother tongue?


Join us for this discussion, see if it resonates with your relationship with the spoken form.
