Welcome to The Brown Girls Journey where we embark on a profound exploration of a 35-year-old South Asian woman's personal journey. Amidst misconceptions on social media about her being white she reflects on the complexities of South Asian representation in mainstream society.

Sharing her family history, our host traces her grandmother's roots being born in Canada, to moving to India, to going back to Canada. She does this by weaving together tales of cultural fusion and resilience. From the sawmill town of Mackenzie, BC, to the diverse landscape of Surrey, BC, she paints a rich tapestry of navigating dual cultural identities amidst Western influences.

This episode challenges stereotypes and embraces the hybridity of South Asian heritage in Canada. As someone whose worked as a therapist, educator, and curriculum developer, our host prepares us for episodes of insights into social justice, anti-discrimination advocacy, and the intersectional nuances often overlooked in white mainstream feminism.
