Episode 9: Shifting Perspectives with Sia and Tommy Tarawalie
This week we have a fun, honest, and inspiring conversation with Sia and Tommy Tarawalie, a young African couple on the move. Sia and Tommy co-host the Shifting Perspective(s) podcast, where they share their experiences growing up in West African households and challenge many of the beliefs and norms that they were raised with. In our conversation, Sia and Tommy reflect on their childhoods in urban and rural Sierra Leone, the transitions they had to make when they immigrated to the United States, and the values that they are passing on to their children. Along the way, they share the story of how they met and the traumatic conditions that have forced them to see new things and put a spotlight on their partnership.
We can all gain something from reflecting on our upbringing and how it can affect us as we navigate life. So, let's dive in.
