Nemeth Narratives Season I: Everyone Has a Story to Tell
The first season of Nemeth Narratives is a collection of stories from a diverse creative community of storytellers. Each podcast takes us through a delightful and insightful journey often punctuated with side trips to the fear and anxiety that often challenges many of us in moving forward toward our goals...our dreams...our successes. For some, it's the first they've shared. And it started with one thought...EVERYONE has a story.

Secrets & Shame by Trixi Agiao
Asians are known to come from traditional communities that perpetuate honor in their family, ethnicity, and culture. When one fails to do so, it leads to what we call “Asian shame”. Consequently, individuals who feel that they have disgraced their kin hide and isolate themselves physically and emotionally from society to deal with it. Get to know more about “Asian shame” as San Diego choreographer and filmmaker, Trixi Agiao, talks about how secrets and shame have shaped her life in this week’s episode of Nemeth Narratives podcast.
Trixi Anne Agiao is a socially conscious choreographer and filmmaker using the digital guise of The Thoughtful Beast. Trixi creates work centered on fighting the stigma against mental illness and mental health. Utilizing visual storytelling experience as a dancer and choreographer, Trixi sets out to make videos that kinesthetically connect with her audience.
