This week's guest is a Pakistani-American/Canadian actress, dreamer, dog mom, and overall lover of life. Natasha Khawja started her blog to share her own personal experiences in the hope her story can help & resonate with other South Asians. In our conversation, Natasha shares how to determine what identity means to you, the differences and overlap of identity vs culture and how to navigate both when you are disowned by your family. 

Questions we discuss in this episode also include: 

  • Can identity change over time?
  • Where identity comes from and how identity is shaped 
  • What does it mean to be disowned ?
  • What happens if you get disowned for interracial dating?
  • And more
