Grounded in Diversity
Have you ever felt confused by your background, or judged because of who you are? Taking pride in our identity can be hard when we're stuck between multiple roles, or when others make us feel different. But here, in Grounded in Diversity, we will learn to share and celebrate our differences through conversations with researchers, teachers, and most importantly, each other. From answering your questions about our perceived differences to discovering why diversity is so important, we hope to help you feel a little bit less alone.

Meet Dr. Aparna Kalbag as we explore the connections between cultural identity, physical health, and mental well-being. From the impact of traditional foods on chronic illness to the silent pressures placed on immigrant families, Dr. Kalbag’s work bridges science with experience, reminding us that health isn’t just about biology, but about the stories we carry. Unpack the effects of cultural disconnection, the "model minority" myth, and generational stress, and understand how we can move towards healing, integrating, and embracing every part of who we are.
