Listen Later

In this powerful Pride Month special episode of "Bottom Up," I have a heartfelt conversation with Xin-Feng, a courageous individual who shares her profound experiences as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Join us as we delve into the struggles she faced while coming out in the regressive country of Singapore, a decision that ultimately led her to leave her beloved family behind and seek acceptance in the United States.

Xin-Feng fearlessly opens up about the hardships she encountered on her journey, shedding light on the profound sacrifices she made to live her truth. Through her candid narrative, she provides a firsthand account of the challenges faced by queer individuals in societies that are slow to embrace diversity and inclusion.
As the discussion unfolds, Xin-Feng guides us through the complexities of navigating life as part of a queer family, highlighting the unique obstacles they encounter and the resilience required to overcome them. Her story serves as a testament to the enduring power of love and the strength found within chosen families.
Towards the end of our conversation, the tables turn as Xin-Feng compassionately seeks to understand my personal journey with cerebral palsy in a country like Nepal. Her genuine curiosity allows us to engage in a dialogue about the struggles, triumphs, and misconceptions surrounding disability in different cultural contexts.
Join us for this enlightening episode as we explore the intersections of LGBTQ+ struggles, familial love, and the realities of living with a disability. "From Silence to Pride" is an episode that aims to foster understanding, empathy, and inclusivity, celebrating the strength and resilience of those who defy societal norms and pave the way for a more accepting world.
