In America, the patriarchy is always judging our worth based on an outward image of productivity, contribution, and potential value to others. But who comes up with the "standard" of worth? This metric for measuring success is already BS, and even more so when you're considered an outsider trying to find your way in the good ol US of A.
When you're an immigrant, you might think of the patriarchy as your disapproving Aunty - whose expectations you can never live up to, no matter how perfectly you check off all the boxes.
Anya Cherrice, helps immigrants and people from immigrant communities redefine archaic ideas of success and dream bigger. Have a listen to hear how she helps people break through these barriers to thrive (and gain some perspective for those of us already from here).
