Advertise on podcast: Not Like the Other

Happy Pride Month (well it was when I recorded it)! It's our first Micro-sode! Join me your host Jonathan, as we do a little Micro-Aggression 101.  I'll delve into what a micro-aggression is and how it's different from being a shady bitch! And if you're like me, and learn by example, we'll pick apart one of the classics "You Speak English Well".  Learn why it's quite often taken in the way it may have been intended and how it's just another crappy way of saying to someone that they don't belong.  I know, confusing right?  Just when you thought it was safe to be complimentary!  Ah, the joy of the micro-aggression! Be safe.  Be well.  Be different.

For the first few episodes, we tackle the topic of growing up as an immigrant in predominantly white neighborhoods in Australia, the US and the UK.  My first guest Vicki discusses what it was like to grow up as an Asian female in a suburban neighborhood in Australia, and how that has shaped her life.

Before we get our teeth into the first episode, let's start at the beginning: Who am I and what do I know about being different?  I give a little background about who I am and what sparked making a podcast about something that has impacted everything in my life and that at times has left me feeling anxious and isolated, but other times has me so proud of who I am. 

Not Like the Other:  The Podcast where we explore what being different means and the things that set us apart.   Join me on some candid conversations with people who generously tell their stories and recount their experiences on how being different has shaped them and what it means to them now.
