Layer#8: A Migrant's Answer to Fear, Belonging & The Immigration Debate - Divesh Sareen

In a time of divisive headlines and anti-immigrant rallies, this question cuts to the very heart of a national conversation.

In this timely conversation, Pan sits down with Divesh Sareen, author, tech entrepreneur, TEDx speaker and a powerful voice for the migrant community.

Drawing on the ancestral echoes of the 1947 Partition and his own journey from Punjab to Australia with just $1000 in his pocket, Divesh unlayers the psychology behind the "us vs. them" mentality.

It's a deep dive into the nature of fear, the fierce determination of the migrant spirit, and a powerful reframe of what it means to be "Australian by choice."

𝗧𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗱:

Unlayering the human fear behind the current immigration debate.
The ancestral roots of resilience, passed down from survivors of the 1947 Partition.
"Going to war with yourself": The immense internal battle of the migrant journey.
Moving from feeling like you belong to "neither" country to forging a new, powerful identity.
Shifting the narrative of the migrant experience, from being a "burden" to a "builder."
Divesh's mission is to create platforms where migrants can own their stories and shape the future.
