Mothers. There is so much to talk about. How do we as children, navigate and understand how we are being shown love, especially when it looks vastly different to how those around us are being raised?

Code switching means shifting or manipulating your behaviour depending on the social context you're in. It’s a thing, even former US President Barack Obama does it. But is it good for us?

At times, the line between cultural appreciation and cultural appropriation can seem very fine.

Biracial, multiracial, multiethnic... words like these are part of our toolkit of self-identification. So surely as individuals we have the right to choose how, when and if we use these identifiers? In this episode of Like Us, Anna Yeon, Noè Harsel and Zione Walker-Nthenda discuss race and representation on TV, and the moment that made Noè identify as biracial.

Identity is difficult for all kids growing up, there is no doubt. For culturally diverse teenagers and third culture kids, trying to find their place can be even more fraught at times. In this episode of Like Us, Anna, Noè and Zione chat about raising their kids now, and how growing up was different for them.

Our names are such a part of how we identify ourselves and how others see us. Names can even preempt things about us sometimes. They can evoke emotions, identity and even personality traits. In this episode of Like Us, Anna, Noè and Zione chat about how their names do and don't define them.

‘Like Us’ is a new SBS podcast with Anna Yeon, Noè Harsel and Zione Walker-Nthenda. Three Australian women from different cultural backgrounds discussing their personal relationship with Australia and Australia’s relationship with them.
