    We're back after a two week break with an engaging interview! Join us as we dive into the life of a diplomat kid, aka Timothy B Wolff. In this episode, Timothy shares what it was like to move every couple years, and how that transience impacted his ability to make friends, develop community, and feel at home wherever he lived. Timothy also invites us into how his childhood has molded the trajectory of his life as an adult TCK. Do diplomat kids and military brats live in a cultural bubble? How do diplomat kids stay grounded throughout all of the transition? What do diplomat kids and other dimensions of TCKs have in common? These are just some of the questions that Timothy answers in this episode.

  • 9. What we Have to Unlearn About Diversity and Racism as TCKs
    Apr 27 2021
    In this episode we recap some of our favorite parts of our last interview with Doni Aldine. If you haven't listened to that one yet (episode 8), go back and check it out, you don't want to miss it! We also dive into the concept of how our experiences as TCKs impact our understanding of diversity and racism both in the United States and abroad. How does growing up in a diverse culture and environment impact what someone thinks they know about systemic racism? An analogy about table building, the relationship between white privilege and minorities both domestic and overseas, the importance of listening first, and much more are discussed in this packed episode.
