EP 13 - AARON TAM (@the.aaron.tam) - FIRST GENERATIONS PODCAST (@firstgenerationspodcast)

"Leave this world behind in a better place than what it was" - Aaron Tam 

Aaron is a Hong Kong Chinese Canadian CPA accountant that is also the founder/host of First Generations Podcast. First Generations Podcast share stories and lessons of people that paved their own path to success! It's a successful podcast with over 6000 followers on Instagram! 

He was such a joy to talk to as he was giving off such positive energy and vibe during the whole episode. He also shows great gratitude to what he has and he believes in living well means to serve well. I believe it is all that which has made him so successful in what he does. 

In this episode, we talked about growing up in Canada as a Chinese Born Canadian (CBC) and feeling like a black sheep/a banana. He also has a martial arts background and we got into it and talked about his martial art lessons. We talked about being Diaspora Asian and the question of where is home when you are Diaspora Asian (my favorite thing to talk about). Last, We talked about his podcast, why he is doing his podcast, what he has learned, the power of networking and his self-help/motivation/positive mindset. He ended it with book recommendations and some parting words for those looking for some positive reinforcement/words of encouragement.
