Flipping the Script: Reverse Racism Unraveled
In this episode of "The Same Same but Different Podcast," I delve into the complex and nuanced topic of racism and intersectionality. I explore the definition of racism, debunk common misconceptions about reverse racism, and discuss the impact of historical injustices on present-day inequalities. I also address the role of intersectionality in complicating discussions of racism, highlighting the diverse experiences within communities and the importance of acknowledging multiple marginalized identities. Additionally, I provide strategies for navigating difficult conversations about race and emphasize the importance of listening, empathy, and collective action in moving forward together towards a more equitable and just society. Join me on this journey of learning, reflection, and action as I continue to explore the complexities of racism and intersectionality and strive for a world where everyone is truly seen, heard, and valued. Together, we can create lasting change and build a future where diversity is celebrated and injustice is dismantled.

Power of Purpose

Power of Purpose
Maryann Tsai describes herself as a 'complicated' person, but as a multipassionate complicated person. She has a varied interest in lots of fields, and is a self confessed foodie, a baking enthusiast, an engineer by background, a mother, a community leader and much more. In this episode we talk about how she found her purpose with Reach Her Inc., and how she moved through different phases of life to reach there. There are some really key crossroads that got Maryann to do a deep dive, and fashion her path - when nothing was available as per her needs and desires. We've spoken about the hardships her parents faced when they migrated here, and we touched on how it was a different experience for her as she grew up here in Perth. We talked about the very high mental load that comes with choosing to give up a flourishing career to take care of our child/ren, and how through the years of child caring / being a stay at home parent changes our needs and wants. We talked about how we can work together as a community to bust some common myths about migrants, about how migrants positively impact the communities they call home and very importantly about the idea of 'giving back'. I am sure you are going to be very inspired by this 'different' voice, doing 'different' things and how you can do it too.

About intentional pauses & Multiple passions
In this episode, Stephanie talks with vulnerability about how she took an intentional pause to go deep within and find out what it is that she is ''actually' interested in pursuing. With lots of insight, deep introspection Stephanie also talks about that there is no clear line to finding the 'aha' moments, its a build up sort of journey. There are so many very 'blink and you miss' layers in our conversation, and I hope you do too. We also talk about how people look at other people like them, as more multi faceted than others - thus creating a bias - which then limits their perception about them. The concept of learning, adopting cultural humility vs cultural competency.

The Tapestry Within - Part 1 - Values & Beliefs
When we talk about values and beliefs, we often think that everyone's is shaped similarly. We do not take in to account the fact that values and beliefs are shaped by our 'individual' lived experiences, our 'individual' environments and very importantly our 'individual' upbringing. In this very unique episode, I got to talking to Upeka and Amana, who are both migrants to Australia, and who share how their values changed over time. We've discussed how their intersectionalities have shaped their values, and also how they stay true to their values in the face of adversity. We also recognised that 'line' of work Upeka, Amanda and even I are in, have been shaped by these values. My hope is that you will gain some insight into your own values, how they are shaped, and the pritorities can change over a period of time.

What's in a Name - Part 1
When I met Dr. Price in 2021, I was very interested in learning her highly educated, greatly researched opinion about why non English speakers shortened, abbreviated or even changed their names when they moved to predominantly English speaking countries. In this episode, which spans across 2 parts, Dr. Price unpacks how she pioneered her entire business to create tools that furthered the work we both do in the wide arena of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Her lead up to her book, her workshops and her realisation that it is not always racism that is the problem BUT that the problem(& it's interpretation) that causes racism it is a lack of understanding of the different cultures that fuels friction the observations of English speakers are valid, however the interpretations are not valid. We talk about the 'bottom up' approach that she employed to create ‘Working with Asian Names’ and ‘Customer Service Across Cultures’ workshops, which were (and still are) hits with the corporate world,the education field, with librarians even. Sometimes given the moniker as 'the name doctor', Dr. Price comes from a mixed cultural heritage herself. Her father is Anglo-Australian and mother is from Malaysia. Her interpretations of how to create respectful, long lasting changes by impacting cross cultural communication is seriously inspirational.

Architect of your own identity - a transition story
Ahead of World Pride 2023, I really wanted to touch on a point of view that a whole lot of humans seem to have a problem with. In this regard, I got the chance to interview Miss Bobbi Barrington who at the age of 59 transitioned into who she is today. In this episode, Miss Bobbi and I have talked about defining 'sex' vs 'gender' defining what the abbreviations for LGBTQIA+ stand for and the pronouns we can use her journey of finding herself by being aware of her gender identity how her life looks now vs before her gender affirming surgery how humans, especially women, can stand on their own ageism, and very importantly how companies, communities, can be more LGBTQIA+ inclusive. Miss Bobbi, has very graciously shared how her own family took her coming out news. She has very openly, and vulnerably shared the anguish of her mental health, and she hopes that her way of activism will encourage other humans to be the architects of their own lives. Keep listening till the end so you can hear the details of her offer of mentorship too, enjoy this episode, and do check out the work Miss Bobbi is doing by following below links. | and of course, the tip jar/contribution/donation link : 'The Same Same but Different podcast' creation - with even a $2.00 donation, you would be supporting the message of this podcast.

A feast for your senses - an honest account of experiencing a new culture - Part 2
In Part 2 of this episode, Sarina and I have chatted a bit more about the whole 'planning' bit of a marriage, and how she wanted to respectfully include all those things that her fiance Deepak's family deemed important. In this episode, Sarina also talks about how important diversity, acceptance of those different from her is an important value to uphold. Sarina has also mentioned that it is not only BIPOC peoples' who face discrimination, and what representation means to her and Deepak. Sarina holds hope for the next generation, not only because she plans to have children with her Indian-origin partner, but also aspires to enable her children to be proud of her own Maltese-Scottish background. I can wish that through listening to this recording you shall find hope within your own inter-racial / cultural / faith relationships. I also hope that you can find correlations of the kind of open-minded conversations you can have with your neighbour / best friend / colleagues etc who may be of a different culture / ethnicity / race / religion; and bring about a deeper connection with them.

A feast for your senses - an honest account of experiencing a new culture - Part 1
The thing about this very podcast episode lies in the honest, sometimes a sense of conflicting views, yet a wondrous outlook of Sarina when she visited India for the first time. This episode is curated to be chatty, vulnerable, open and honest without putting either Australia or India, as a nation, as a culture down. Neither is there any negative connotations attributed to either - just a curious comparison. One thing to note, is that Sarina has recounted her experience of India, from her outlook, and I have responded from mine. The thing is, everyone will experience India, and for that matter any country differently. As long as you are open minded, open to try and open to conversations - your experience of another country's culture, traditions, practices...will be truly an eye-opening one. One has to also remember, that there is a WHOLE world outside of our own that is different to what we are used to - thus, some things may seem very alien, weird and even unnatural - getting a historical context will help in understanding why things are done the way they are in that country. In part 1, of 'A feast for your senses - an honest account of experiencing a new culture' , Sarina and I talked about her unique business as a Sponsorship & Partnership Specialist; her reason for opening up her business ; difference in sleeping arrangements in India vs a western country; how food is an integral part of a country's experience; and how the prevalence of gold, gold giving is a tradition in India I truly hope you get some nuggets of wisdom as you hear Sarina speak about how India, for her, was not an ASSAULT on her senses but a FEAST for them.

In this episode, I got to honour all of that, and talk about how he creates safe spaces for everyone to be themselves, his 'moment' of pivot when he realised that he was not doing what his values were, his Tedx experience, his experience of being in a movie; how much 'harm' he meted out on himself, while amplifying the 'anger' he felt in the aftermath of the #blacklivesmatter movement; about building healthy boundaries, about accountability and I also made him THINK about how to answer a key question.

Season wrap up episodes have to be special right ? And this one, in my eyes is that kind of special. A journey that, for me started with being told I had a radio voice + a discussion with another podcaster who threw the challenge saying 'why not'? + a prompt via another podcaster who I admire who asks 'how are you using your difference to make a difference' + knowing fully well that what 'I' had to say was something that needed to be said. Reasons enough, yes ? But wait, there is more and in this episode I share just a bit more about why I do what I do + and why sometimes I am not able to show up for anyone + how I have used this medium to manage such situations.

The importance of language is deeply rooted in our identities,and knowing language/s means you are able to communicate with your fellow human. Migration though plays a bit of a havoc, especially when one moves from our birth country to another - where natural assimilation aside, language gets lost. Another thing is that a lot of people think that being bilingual or multilingual messes with our brains - it doesn't by the way. In this episode, Anita and I talk about all of this and how language can be taught to young children, how her business came about and why she does what she does. It's a great episode, laced with laughter, some seriousness and a whole lot of science.
