  • E14 Language Legacy | Leaving Taiwan at 18: A Journey of Language, Identity & New Beginnings

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome to Episode 1 of the Language Legacy Project Series, a 5-part community storytelling initiative capturing the powerful conversations between youth from Alabama and elders from immigrant and refugee communities.

    In this first episode, a young teen sits down with an elder who left Taiwan at 18, uncovering a deeply personal story about language, identity, family, and the journey of making a new place feel like home. Through guided storytelling and cultural exploration, they dive into memories of childhood in Taiwan, learning English in the U.S., navigating cultural misunderstandings, and the rich traditions passed down through the generations.

    You’ll hear stories of:
    ✨ Growing up in a multigenerational Taiwanese household
    ✨ Facing the challenges of learning a new language and culture
    ✨ The emotional realities of immigrating as a teenager
    ✨ Why idioms, tones, and tiny language differences matter
    ✨ How Mandarin and cultural traditions are being passed on to her granddaughter
    ✨ The humor behind a Mandarin filler word that caused a major English misunderstanding
    ✨ The warmth of Chinese New Year celebrations, storytelling, food, and family rituals

    About the Language Legacy Project:
    Language Legacy is a youth-and-elders interview series designed to preserve linguistic and cultural heritage through storytelling. Alabama teenagers interview elders from immigrant and refugee backgrounds to capture their language memories, idioms, childhood stories, and first-language expressions. These conversations are then edited into short video stories and shared across online platforms to foster intergenerational understanding, cultural appreciation, and community connection.

    Through this project, we hope to:
    🌏 Bridge generational gaps through the power of storytelling
    🌏 Elevate and preserve the lived experiences of elders
    🌏 Celebrate the richness of languages and cultural identities
    🌏 Empower youth as interviewers, listeners, and cultural documentarians

    If you’re inspired by stories of culture, identity, migration, and language... This episode is the perfect place to begin.

    🎧 Watch/Listen now and join us for Episode 1 of 5.
    New stories from the Language Legacy Project are coming soon.

  • E12 Between Worlds: Cass’ Journey from Third-Culture Kid to Tech Leader

    Send us Fan Mail

    Growing up across the Middle East and Southeast Asia, Cass learned to feel at home in difference and to see cultural fluidity as a strength. Her story traces how global events like 9/11 shaped perceptions of identity and belonging, and how being mixed race taught her to navigate worlds with empathy and awareness.

    Now a leader in tech and host of the podcast How She Got Here, Cass shares how living between cultures became her superpower: helping her lead diverse teams, bridge perspectives, and champion representation for women in tech.

    In this conversation, Cass opens up about overcoming fear and perfectionism to launch her own podcast, redefining confidence as the simple act of showing up, even when you don’t feel ready.

    Takeaways:

    • Cultural fluidity builds resilience and empathy
    • Confidence grows from keeping promises to yourself
    • Representation matters, especially in spaces that lack it
    • Difference isn’t a flaw; it’s the spark that connects us

  • E11 The Untold History of Brazil: Language, Race, and Resilience

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of From Where to Here, Alexandra sits down with Dr. John Maddox, a professor of Spanish and Portuguese at UAB, to explore the intersections of language, culture, history, and identity. Dr. Maddox shares how an inspiring Spanish teacher set him on a lifelong path in languages, how games and stories made learning accessible, and why perfection in language learning is a myth. The conversation spans from classrooms in Georgia to study abroad in Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Brazil, weaving in insights about colonialism, race, and the African diaspora. Together, they uncover the untold stories of Brazilian history, especially the overlooked role of Black women in shaping culture, language, and resilience, and reflect on how embracing mistakes, differences, and shared humanity can connect us more deeply across borders.


    Takeaways

    1. The spark of a teacher matters. A high school Spanish teacher using games, stories, and immersion inspired Dr. Maddox’s lifelong passion for languages.
    2. Language learning thrives on imperfection. Mistakes aren’t failures — they are stepping stones to fluency and connection.
    3. Portuguese and Spanish are sibling languages. Though often seen as rivals, their shared histories shaped cultures on both sides of the Atlantic.
    4. Brazil’s history is inseparable from slavery. It was the largest slave-based society in the Americas, and its cultural fabric still carries this legacy.
    5. Black women shaped Brazilian culture in profound ways. From domestic and community roles to preserving oral traditions and influencing literature, their impact endures.
    6. Colonial myths still echo today. Narratives like Brazil being a “racial democracy” obscure ongoing inequalities tied to race and history.
    7. Puerto Rican identity offers parallels. Like Quebec, Puerto Rico maintains strong cultural pride through language and resilience despite political and colonial complexities.
    8. Shared humanity is the antidote to division. Dr. Maddox emphasizes empathy, curiosity, and seeing cultural diversity as a source of growth, not separation.

  • E10 How One Colombian Woman Built Two Lives Across 2 Countries

    Send us Fan Mail

    Join us for an intimate conversation with Juliana Madrid, a Colombian business operations director who transformed a simple dream of perfecting her English into a beautiful cross-cultural love story. Discover how she navigated building relationships, career success, and family traditions while bridging two very different worlds. Her honest insights about cultural stereotypes, the reality of immigrant life, and creating "home" in multiple countries will inspire anyone considering a major life change or curious about Latin American culture.

    Key takeaways from this episode:

    • The "No Dar Papaya" mindset is essential for success - Juliana reveals how this Colombian expression (don't give opportunities to be taken advantage of) guided her from choosing Birmingham over Miami to sitting front row in every class.

    • Colombian family closeness creates a practical support system that makes American independence shocking - Living with parents until marriage and having affordable household help means learning to cook and do laundry at 30 was a real culture shock.

    • Breaking the Colombian expectation of having children requires channeling nurturing energy elsewhere - Juliana shows how she became "Mama Juli" at work while her family's unconditional support made this choice possible without cultural judgment.

  • E06 Empowering Latinas in the U.S.: Diana Martínez García on Identity & Change

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this powerful episode of From Where to Here, host Alexandra Lloyd sits down with Diana Martínez García, an immigrant rights advocate and cultural connector who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border as a child. From navigating two identities to lobbying in D.C. for DACA, Diana shares her journey of resilience, advocacy, and uplifting young Latinas in Alabama through her work with Virtual Promotoras.

    We explore what it means to belong in two cultures, break down stereotypes about Mexican identity, and dive into the unspoken challenges immigrant communities face—especially around access to healthcare and reproductive education.

    Whether you're passionate about social justice, Latinx voices, or simply love stories that inspire change, this episode will stay with you.

    🌶️ Key Takeaways

    Advocacy begins with personal experience — Diana’s story shows how lived experience can be a powerful tool for change, especially in shaping policy and creating access to resources.

    Cultural identity is complex and non-linear — We explore how Diana navigates feeling “too Mexican for the U.S., too American for Mexico,” and what true belonging looks like.

    Reproductive health conversations matter — Through Virtual Promotoras, Diana is creating safe spaces for young Latinas to learn about their bodies, their rights, and their futures.
