From Nepal to America – My Dad’s Journey of Resilience

In this episode, I sit down with my Dad to explore his incredible journey - from his childhood in Nepal to navigating life in a new country. We talk about his early years, the challenges he faced growing up, and the pivotal decision to move our family to America in his mid-30s. With little English, little savings, and no clear plan, he took a leap of faith to give our family a better future. Through struggles, sacrifices, and moments of triumph, his story is a testament to resilience, determination, and the power of a parent’s love.
