About this listen
In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Stella as we review Behold the Dreamers by Imbolo Mbue—a powerful novel about immigration, ambition, and the pursuit of the American Dream. As immigrants ourselves—Stella from Kenya and me from Zambia—now American citizens and nurses, we found so much of our own story reflected in the characters of Neni and Jende. We share our personal journeys, including the career dreams we left behind (pharmacy and finance) and how becoming nurses sometimes felt like taking a step back to move forward. This conversation blends book analysis with real-life immigrant experiences, exploring identity, sacrifice, and resilience.
