"Where Are You From?"

A Question That Challenges Identity in a Culturally Blended World

Beschreibung

"Where are you from?" Have you been asked this question and did not know how to answer it? This question, although seemingly simple, can make you feel lonely, disconnected, confused, and can often create an inner turmoil. Your answer to this question, where are you from, touches at the soul of who you are as it is woven into the perceptions of your identity. The co-authored book "Where Are You From?" A Question that Challenges Identity in a Culturally Blended World goes beyond the concept of Third Culture Kids and embarks on a journey to search for identity as a Culturally Blended Person. It is a series of travel stories that take place during conversations in Prague. These conversations touch on key issues such as: finding home, belonging, grief, child development, parenting, and having a global mindset. The authors, from two different generations, deep dive into learning and understanding how identity is shaped and influenced by answering the question "where are you from?" As you turn the pages of this book you are offered a window into the thoughts and struggles of both a mother and daughter dealing with the common issues that arise from the question where are you from. You will lean into their experiences of a lifetime and connect them to yours. You will deep dive with the authors as they share their struggles and challenges faced as Culturally Blended People. And then, like the authors, you too will be able to find the insights and strategies of success to move forward to write your own story on your terms.
