Episode notes

Children of immigrants are often challenged by high functioning anxiety. Is this anxiety caused by the pressure of not failing your family? Is it the pressure brought by maturing at an earlier age? Maybe it was the translating and interpreting for our parent/s at the age of 7? Or maybe it is the generational trauma we carry in our genes? Actually - it might be all of the above.
