In January 2023, I sat down with Amy Choi and Rebecca Lehrer, the cohosts of The Mash-Up Americans podcast. Our conversation centered on their series on grief. We discussed grief, how we can understand it without over-pathologizing the sentiment, and why it’s both universal and personal. The most remarkable about the conversation is that we kept it light and honest.”

Today, I am so psyched to share an episode from their podcast- their interview with Lisa Ling. The celebrated journalist, executive producer, TV host, author, and mother sits with Rebecca and Amy to share her journey to heal her familial bonds, compassion for her mom, and hard-won friendship with her religious Korean mother-in-law. I hope you enjoy this episode, and don’t forget to return next week for Immigrantly’s new episode.
