E27 features Joseph Phetmixay, baby brother to Rita Phetmixay AND youngest sibling of the Phetmixay family! Not only is Joseph the youngest child, he’s also the youngest guest on HOL and here to rep all the Lao GEN Z folx out there!!
Rita gets to interview Joseph and explore his personal experiences of growing up as a Lao American high school kid in the south during the onset of political rising/anti-Asian hate and COVID-19 pandemic. Joseph’s critical self-reflection during last years of high school led him to confront an identity crisis and find Buddhist practices as forms of self-care, intergenerational resilience and so much more!
