Summary

Kimmy Yam is a reporter for NBC News and drops so many insightful gems on this episode of Feeling Asian. She describes what it was like growing up in a Chinese restaurant family and walks us through the importance of being real and no-bullshit in her journalism work. We get deep when Kimmy implores us to show compassion to our parents and why it's important to check the burden we throw back on them to be perfect people.
