I've been called by different names (especially in grade school) because of my color or how big my eyes are. For a child, we thought this could only be a source of entertainment or fun. We ignore it 'cause it may be natural for kids to tease each other and we grow up normalizing these actions. Partly, it can be true that kids may have said things unintentionally but the scars that it gave us could last for years and worst, it affects the way how we see our identity as a person. Believing that those names our former classmates used to call us are who we are. In this episode, we bring back those memories and talk about how simple teasing impacted us as adults. I brought my former coworkers  and now my dearly friends (Ayie and Bianca) to join me in this episode to share their thoughts and experiences! Enjoy this episode!
