Lisa and Anahita chat with Shilpa Lewis, an East Indian woman born and raised in the United States. In this episode, Shilpa talks about the tension and struggles of growing up in an immigrant family. Unlike her peers, her college-educated, traditional father worked multiple jobs to support the family and send money back to India. Shilpa simply wanted to live an American life. This dream was taken away at 14 years old when her family moved back to India where she spent her high school years feeling different. Despite experiencing pain and isolation from both cultures, today Shilpa is thriving, knows herself, and lives in purpose helping other women as a mindfulness coach. In Episode 31, we welcome Shilpa Lewis.
