If you could reflect on one thing, it’s this:What do the clothes you wear and conversations you have today say about the community you've built — or hope to build?This letter is for anyone who’s ever tried to blend in—only to realize how it only makes you feel lonelier.To wrap up the Summer Series, Jen reflects on her evolving identity as a Filipino American woman—tracing her journey from childhood birthdays filled with vibrant love, to the muted grief of losing a built-in community, to rediscovering color, voice, and belonging on her own terms.If you’ve ever wondered what you had to change to be accepted, tried on different versions of yourself to fit in, or walked away from a place where you felt “othered”… This one’s for you.This concludes our Summer Series. ☀️Thank you for listening, and stay tuned for Filipino American History Month! 💙❤️💛 This is a public episode.
