This episode features a conversation I had with my TEDx mentor, Ken Harvey on their Check It Out Podcast. I talked about my experiences of overcoming adversity from childhood to my adulthood, becoming a first time author, and the process of writing my memoir: Evolving Through Adversity. I also talked about my immigration journey to North America, and starting from scratch as a war refugee. 

Ken also asked me about my experience as a first-time TEDx speaker and how was stepping on the red stage to give a talk on race and other identity constructs, called: We Are Not All that Different. Toward the end of the episode, I answer podcast listeners on healing pain and achieving one's aspirations, as well as give my take on funding public libraries with taxpayers' money. Enjoy and share!
