Welcome to the BobaBoyTalks (BBTalk) podcast!

In this episode, Marcus shares a personal reflection on identity: how his understanding of who he is has changed throughout different stages of life. Growing up between Taiwan and Canada, he discusses the challenges of belonging, cultural identity, and how our sense of self is often shaped by the people, places, and experiences around us.

As an immigrant, it's easy to spend years searching for your "true" identity. This episode explores why that search may be more complex and more meaningful than it first appears.

Thank you for listening and for your continued support!
