About this listen

What happens when your name, your skin tone, and your heritage all tell different stories? In this episode of #OldAsianLady Part 1, Christine Kaʻaloa opens up about growing up Hapa in Hawai‘i, feeling caught between cultures and struggling to embrace her multi-identities. From Japanese dance traditions to racial stereotypes to a career in New York City to teaching in South Korea, Christine shares how identity confusion shaped her confidence—and how she slowly learned to own every part of herself.
