But where are you really from?
English episode 16 Description: YOU don´t get to tell me that my LIVED EXPERIENCE is not real. On today’s episode, I talk about what it feels like to be called a “victim” simply for sharing your story. I talk about having my pain invalidated by people who have never lived through the things I have. People whose baseline in life started at zero while mine started at minus one hundred. People who were handed safety, stability, opportunities, and dignity, yet still feel entitled to tell marginalized people what is real, what matters, and how we should feel. I talk about growing up having to earn everything from an early age, constantly fighting to create a better and more dignified life for myself without ever allowing myself to sink into self-pity. Survival became motivation. Pain became fuel. But there is a particular arrogance in privileged people dismissing struggles they have never had to endure themselves. This episode is a reflection, and a conversation about class, privilege, survival, identity, and the audacity of people who think their limited experience is the universal truth. Listen now if you’ve ever experienced having your experiences or feeling be invalidated by people who cannot possible know what it feels to be in your shoes...
