Izzy Does It

How I met my dad for the first time after 36 years


Listen Later

For the first time, I switched seats.

After years of hosting conversations on Izzy Does It, I become the one being interviewed. What unfolds is a deeply personal story about growing up estranged from my Thai father, living 36 years without him, and the unexpected journey that led to our reunion in Bangkok.

In this episode, Tiwin Aji helped me unpack:

• What it was like growing up without a father
• The stories I created as a child to make sense of the absence
• The anger, confusion, and quiet grief that followed me into adulthood
• The internal work it took to release resentment
• The almost unbelievable chain of events that led to finally meeting my father face to face

Thank you to Tiwin for holding space for this conversation. If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who needs it.
