There is More than One Way to Be Human
What happens when you legally belong to a country, yet still feel like an outsider?
For Elee Joven, moving from Guam to mainland America wasn’t simply a change of address. It meant navigating a world where many of the everyday customs she had grown up with were suddenly misunderstood. Simple interactions carried different expectations. Familiar ways of showing respect no longer meant the same thing.
In this conversation, we explore what happens when our assumptions about “normal” are gently challenged. Together, we consider how culture shapes the way we communicate, the way we build relationships, and the way we interpret one another’s actions. More importantly, we ask what becomes possible when curiosity replaces judgement.
