Heart of an immigrant
Hello! Welcome to Heart of an Immigrant. I’m your host Aenoy. From unearthing the assimilation experience to embracing one’s immigrant identity, this podcast spotlights cultures from around the world and how we as immigrants retain our culture through our work. I started this podcast because I found it healing to hear and share stories. I hope you find a connection with each episode. Be sure to follow and subscribe.
