Our parents meant well, but love doesn’t always protect us from stereotypes. In this episode, we talk about how gender shaped our upbringing: the expectations placed on daughters, the freedoms given to sons, and how we watched our parents perform their own gender roles. Now that we’re older, we’re learning to question those patterns, challenge the “that’s just how it is” mindset, and redefine what equality looks like in our own lives, one Akka conversation at a time.
