Welcome to Beyond Asian: Stories of the Third Culture, where we delve into the importance of community and communication in difficult experiences, particularly in the context of familial relationships. In this two-part interview series, we speak with Johnson Hsieh about their respective parental journeys, exploring the challenges and rewards of reconnecting with family after years of distance.

But that's not all - we also dive into the ethical and legal concerns surrounding the use of AI voice generators in voiceover work. Podcast host Sen Zhan, a moonlighting voice actor, shares her experience with a small company that may be using her voice to train their AI without her consent. We discuss important questions about ownership, transparency, and compensation for artists in this field.

Throughout the podcast, we explore the experiences of Asian individuals dealing with anxiety and attachment in their relationships with their parents. We also highlight the importance of evolving relationships, setting boundaries, and the challenges of discussing difficult topics with family members.

Join us as we celebrate the power of community and communication in navigating life's difficult moments. Tune in to Beyond Asian: Stories of the Third Culture, available now on all major podcast platforms.

Notable Quotes

"I never considered my relationship with my family as not important, but I think that there were parts of me that wanted to believe that I didn't need that importance."

"I want to slightly challenge this notion of I set a boundary, and you must respect my boundary because it doesn't work that way with Asian parents."

"It's saying, hey, dad, I can't talk about this anymore because I'm too tired. And if I force myself to keep talking about it, I'm going to resent you."
