Description:

What does it mean to grow up between cultures in
Germany?

In this new THAISPORA episode, Thai-German trauma therapist and
musician Diane reflects on her childhood, unpacks the impact of
internalized racism within her family, and explains why she would
never move back to Siegen.

An honest conversation about identity, healing, and breaking
cycles of pain.
