Description

In this solo episode, host Erica explores the complex realities of code switching-the practice of shifting your language, behavior, or mannerisms to adapt to different social and professional environments. While strategic adaptability can create opportunities, constantly rationing your authenticity can start to feel like an exhausting second job, particularly for individuals carrying a heavier cultural adaptation burden. Erica examines the fine line between healthy self-protection and harmful self-abandonment.
