Common Edges

Where different perspectives meet and find common ground

Common Edges is a podcast of honest conversations between two women living between cultures, exploring the quiet edges where belonging, identity, and everyday life meet.

About the Podcast

Common Edges is a conversation-based podcast hosted by two women who grew up in immigrant families and are now navigating adult lives of their own. Each episode explores how upbringing, culture, and family expectations continue to shape work, relationships, identity, and decision-making long after childhood. The conversations move between past and present — what was passed down, what was questioned, and what still shows up in everyday life. There are no experts or prescriptions; the focus is on lived experience, honest reflection, and the shared space where different paths overlap.
