What is Across The Lines?
Across The Lines is a podcast that highlights the stories of Pan Asian American leaders and explores the intersection of their personal and professional journeys. Our vision is to inspire and empower the next generation of leaders through candid conversations about the confluence of identity and work.
You can check out our website or follow us on Instagram join us for future conversations.
We’ve heard enough content on professionals sharing their professional stories. For Across The Lines, we hope to better understand our guests as people. By doing so, we’ll understand them as professionals. During our conversation, we hope to inspire our listeners, humanize their story, and provide attainable advice for them to do the same.
We’ve focused on a unique balance of authenticity, vulnerability, and professionalism. We’ve addressed how it felt raising money as a person of color. We’ve heard guests reflect on the disorientation they’ve felt growing up in a lower-middle-class immigrant family, to now being one of the most powerful people in society. Guests have opened up about how external clout and validation has negatively impacted their mental health.
These are just a few of the themes we would like to cover with Across The Lines. Others include issues like the bamboo ceiling, the model minority myth, and our role in civic life. This is why we believe Across The Lines will provide value to our guests and listeners.
We hope you enjoy!
