On this episode join us as Macanjy shares his immigration story. We dish on various jobs we have had as new immigrants like door-to-door sales, Skipthedishes and Instacart delivery to name a few. We discuss the hustle mindset of immigrants and how that evolves the longer a person settles in their new country. Come and laugh with us!
