How does growing up in different cultures shape your sense of belonging?
What happens when you feel caught between identities in both your home and adopted countries?
In this episode, Bhanu Bhatnagar, a true Third Culture Kid, shares his unique journey. Born in Sweden to Indian parents and raised between Stockholm and Delhi, Bhanu now leads press and media relations for the World Health Organization's regional office for Europe.
Together, we discuss the challenges of being a "brown kid in Sweden," but also feeling like a foreigner in India, as well as what it means to be "Indian enough." Bhanu also shares how a chance encounter with yoga—introduced to him by a white woman—became a lifesaver as he navigated the trauma of coming out as a gay man to his parents.
