When Parents Say You’ve Changed


Listen Later

What happens when immigrant parents and kids try to meet in the middle?

This week, we’re talking about parents. Immigrant parents, to be exact. How do we balance respect for their sacrifices with the need to live our own lives?

We sit down with our Aunty Tayo, a Nigerian mom and doctor, to talk about cultural expectations, independence, and the beauty (and messiness) of intergenerational relationships.

If you’ve ever found yourself caught between “I don’t want to disappoint my parents” and “I need to live my own life,” this one’s for you.
