Alice Pung
For our first episode of 2021, we had the pleasure of speaking with Alice Pung, an award-winning writer, editor, teacher and lawyer based in Melbourne. She is the bestselling author of Unpolished Gem and Her Father’s Daughter and the editor of the anthologies Growing Up Asian in Australia and My First Lesson. Our discussion spans stories about Alice's family, her experience of giving birth and raising a child in the wake of COVID-19, the future of Asian parenting and much much more. Speaking with Alice has been one of the biggest highlights of our podcasting career and we're so excited for you to listen.
