Description

Let's hear it for our first-gen QUEENS! We have beauty and brains - Sally Gacheru - with us as she shares her journey as a Kenyan immigrant and first in her family to attend college. In this episode, we discuss...

  • Building confidence as a young immigrant
  • Assimilating into a new culture while maintaining original culture
  • Navigating the education system as being the first in the family to attend college
  • Homesickness and sacrifices
  • Sharing love and joy with family overseas - regardless of distance

“It can be challenging when nobody in your family has done it before, but that doesn’t mean you can’t be the first one to start it.”
