Code switching is an essential skill, especially as a PoC. As 2 females who come from a multicultural background, we talk, act and carry ourselves differently when we speak with our family vs. friends vs. colleagues. Our conversation touches on what it's like to alternate between our codes to become more adaptable, approachable, and accepted in various social settings, including the workforce. There are many strengths and challenges that come with code switching, and we discuss how we can balance being ourselves in these different spaces that we are in.
