This conversation with Carolyn Sideco will be released in two parts this week.

In part 1, we catch up on life, identity, and community. Carolyn is a youth sports professional, grandmother, and founder of Coaching Kapwa, bringing a restorative, justice-driven lens to athletics. But beyond sports, we dive into her journey embracing elderhood, building Filipino community in New Orleans, and wrestling with identity as diasporic people. We talk about the long, often hidden history of Filipinos in Louisiana, what it means to balance personal needs with service to community, and how to stay grounded in our relationships during overwhelming times.
