You're A Good Kid

Tessa Lee - Immigration, OCD and Rediscovering Joy


Listen Later

Tessa Lee is an esteemed Lawyer who began life in Malaysia. She and her family immigrated to Australia when Tessa was just 6, and faced many hardhips as they adjusted to life in a new country. In the absense of a traditionally loving and warm home, Tessa developed a highly self-critical mindset, driven towards success to prove her self-worth, which culminated in a diagnosis of OCD as an adult.
Now, Tessa is on a pathway to resdisover joy and a sense of belonging, and is bravely sharing her story to encourage others. We are very grateful to Tessa for travelling across the country to speak with us, and are certain her powerful story will inspire many.
