Description

The podcast you wish you had growing up. Our hosts, Eden, Meghna, Naina, and Lisa and our guests, explore the funny, insightful, and awkward experiences of what it means to be of Asian descent. With the lack of representation in media, it's important that we support one another, bring awareness, and be at the forefront of change.

We are entirely volunteer-run and wouldn't be possible without the help of our amazing team based all over the world. If you have ideas, want to join our organization, or are looking to follow us, please explore: https://dearasiangirl.carrd.co/
