The Hair Trauma a Lot of Us Don't Talk About
Description
I met Tanya on her wedding day, and we've been talking ever since. So I finally brought her to the mic.
This one goes deeper than hair. We get into growing up with immigrant parents, the messages we pick up as little girls about what's "good enough," and why she's worn her hair a certain way for most of her life. It's honest, it's real, and it's a conversation a lot of us need to hear.
She's a nurse, a mom, and one of my favorite people to sit with. Come hang out with us. Thank you for watching, always. — Kim
