In today’s episode of the Mixed Blessing podcast, we sit down with my dear friend Kylene Hong, who is not only a dear friend and a mentor, she’s one of the first folks to see me in the complexity of my multiethnicity and to invite me into the journey. It is a precious, uplifting, and fun conversation. Kylene has much wisdom to share from a multiethnic, multicultural, and even multinational perspective, and does so with grace and humor. One of her passions is helping Mixed folks walk through our identity formation process, and you will see that shine through our entire conversation.
