But just waiting for Where you want to come back from lunch and then we'll get back to the, uh, the PowerPoint. I want to spend a little bit of time working on that first assessment to everyone before you finish the day.
Yeah, it just fans up everyone. Yeah. You know that?
Make that thanks for let.
Okay.
All right, so we're basically On the home stretch.
Okay.
So assume my screen again and then we'll continue with the PowerPoint. Presentation and then SOC just mentioned. I want to spend a bit of time
Looking at the first assessment.
Any questions, before we continue any concerns that there's on your time.
All right, so I brought up this, uh,
Ted Talks. It's about diversity. I just want to you to think about some of the comments that this person Rebecca makes That her own diversity.
Where is it? It's called it again.
That's of course.
So as we've noted, diversity means different things to different people.
And that can change over time as well. And so that means not to static.
It's so good. It's going
Sorry about this, just
Changed.
There we go.
We're holding hands staring at the door and you all say that. Hear that? Yes.
Can you all hear the sound?
Okay, all right.
Good. Thank you.
My siblings and I were waiting for my mother to come back from the hospital. She was there because my grandmother had cancer surgery that day.
Finally, the doors opened And she said, she's gone. She's gone. She started solving her immediately said we must make arrangements. Your grandmothers dying wish was to be very back home in Korea.
I was nearly 12 years old and when they shot were off, my mother's words were ringing. My ears. My grandmother wanted to be buried back home. We had moved from Korea to Argentina, six years prior. In Spanish or how we're going to make a living.
Um, I will arrival immigrants who had lost everything, so we have to work really hard to rebuild Our Lives, so we heard him occurred to me that, after all these years, Back. Home was still in Korea.
It made me ponder where I would want to be very someday where home was for me. And the answer was not obvious and this really bothered me
So, this episode launched the live long Quest for my identity.
I was born in Korea, the Land of kimchi raised in Argentina, where age so much steak that I'd probably 80 calibre now. And I was educated in the U.S where I became addicted to peanut butter,
During my childhood, I felt very much Argentinian but my love betrayed me at times. I remember on the first day of middle school, my Spanish literature teacher came into the room, she scanned, all my classmate and she said, you, you have to get a tutor. Otherwise you won't pass this class. But again, I was fluent to Spanish already. So we thought this though, I could be either Korean or Argentinian
Up, not both. It felt like it's zero-sum game where I had to give up my old identity to be able to gain or earn a new one.
So what else 18, I decided to go to Korea. Hoping that finally, I could find a place to call form, but there are people ask me why do you speak Korean with his Spanish accent? And you must be Japanese because of your big eyes and your foreign body language. As we turns out that I was two Korean to be Argentinian. But through all the Indians have been Korean.
Realisation to me. I had failed to find that place in the world to call home, but how many Japanese looking Koreans who speak in the Spanish accents or even more specific, Argentinian accent, Perhaps this should be an advantage. It was easy for me to stand out which couldn't hurt in the world. That was rapidly changing where skills could become obsolete overnight. So I start looking for that, 100 commonality of the people that I've met. Instead, I realise that oftentimes, I was the only overlap between groups of people that were usually in conflict with each other.
So with these realisation in mind, I decided to embrace all of the different versions of myself even allow myself to reinvent myself at times. So for example, in high school uh I have to go find some Mega nerd. I had no sense of fashion. The glasses and comparison. I think actually I only had friends because I shared my homework. That's true. But once at University, I was able to find a new identity for myself. And the nerve became a popular girl. The odds are good. But the goods are odd.
I switched major so many times that my advisors joked that I should get a degree in random studies.
I tell this my kids and then over the years, I have gained a lot of different identities. Um I started using the inventor entrepreneur social innovator, that became an industry, a woman had a teacher and most recently, and you can my mum or as my toddler says repeatedly.
Even my accent was so confused that. It's origin was so obscure that my friends told it Rebecca niece.
But inventing yourself can be very hard. You can face a lot of your sister at time when I was nearly done with my PhD. Um, I got beaten by that entrepreneurial about I was in the compiling and so writing is this is in the basement didn't see much interesting as starting my own company. So I went to my very traditional Korean parents were here today with a task of letting them know that I was going to drop out from my PhD program. Are the first generation to go to university. So for your final three, migrants this month deal, you can imagine how this conversation was going to go. But fortunately, I had a secret weapon with me, which was a chart that had The averaging of all of the graduates from Sanford, PhD programs and then the average income of all of the drawbacks from starter graduate programs, Hamase. You know, this child was definitely skewed by the founders of Google. But my mum looked at a chart and she said, oh fire follow your passion.
Now today, My identity quest is no longer to find. Might try. It's more about allowing my stuff, to embrace honestly, possible permutations of myself. And cultivating diversity within me and not just around me. My voice now or three years and five months old today and they're already born with three nationalities and four languages. After the mentioned now that my husband is actually from Denmark, just in case I didn't have enough culture shots in my life. I decided to marry the English guy. In fact, I think my kids will be the first, bikings will have a hard time growing a beard when they become older. Yeah, we'll have to work on that. But, I really hope that they'll find that their multiplicity. Is going to open and create a lot of doors for them in their lives and that they can use this as a way to find commonality in a in a world that's increasingly Global today. I hope that is better, feeling anxious and worried that they don't fit in that one box or that their identity will become irrelevant, someday that they can feel free to experiment and to key control of their personal, narratives and identity. I also hope that they would use their unique combination of values languages, and, cultures and skills to help create a world. Where identities are no longer used
To alienate what looks different, but rather to bring together people And most importantly, I really hope that they find tremendous Joy in going through this. Uncharted territories, because I know I have
Now, as of my grandmother, her last wish was also her last lesson to me. It turns out that it was never about going back to Korea and being buried there. It was about resting next to her son, who had died long before she moved to Argentina.
Well matter to her was not the ocean, the divided, her paths and new world. It was. About finding,
Common round. Thank you.
Sorry, would anyone like to comment on what you just heard?
This could apply to quite a few people in this country. Couldn't it really? It was different. Sorry with different uh, nationalities.
How many people come from Monte grateful backgrounds or multi-racial backgrounds?
Okay.
All right.
Yeah, odd percentage of people in this country born overseas or have parents who've been brought overseas
Okay, now this is called the Gibbs reflective cycle and it's about Developing your own level of self-awareness regard to your beliefs values and attitudes. Okay? Do they really help true of a truth early feel about them? Do you ever think about them? Do you ever evaluate them? You have a discard, some do ever take on board new ones.
Um,
You attitudes, believe some values. Are they different now to what they used to be, have you consciously made an attempt? To change anything in regard to gloves and values and attitudes, have you consciously developed an action plan in your own mind?
Any comments, please.
Sometimes in life. We go through difficult, life advance, and we had to evaluate
I won't believe some values and attitudes whether they still hold true or not.
Get rid of them.
Anyone doing through that process?
Okay, would you like to just put anyone like to make a comment? Please.
Hello.
Like a comment about what I've been through or just a minute. Just just gently, just about in regard to uh, reevaluate reevaluating, your own police and values.
Um, I have done a hell of a lot of that in the loss. Eight months.
Um, you don't have to dispose that you don't, Hi, I'm happy too. Um, a really taken on the approach of being curious, rather than coming at it from like oh do I agree with this? Do I not like, is that something for me? Is it not like I've just come from the perspective of being curious. And like wanting to learn about things. Um,
My partner and I the uploading. Yes. In the present thing. I've had heard. Yes or no. Uh, we've heard a different things. And I was like, oh, um, I don't really understand. Why could you tell me a bit more about it? I'd like to understand rather than trying to change his mind or telling he's wrong. I've really switched to Just not curious mindset.
And it kind of links in with the video in terms of like finding commonalities from being curious, rather than just being like oh you fit in the Box or you don't fit in the Box.
12:49 pm
Yeah.
Yeah, right. Thank you.
Invitation is.
Stations that were not socially aware.
We all might as sometimes.
And that can show up our limitations.
We had block. We all had blind spots.
Have you worked to change? Your attitude or your blind blind spots.
Two things.
That Isabel.
Yeah, I think definitely it's hot there because you're intersection yourself is always going to be huge like you are, they can unreliable narrator there. So so many times I've I've had to like Really, do you like a lot of inner reflection or have? Like I I've had to consult people or like ask them.
It like it. Say uh something am I like, is there a solidus that I'm not looking at? Sometimes you have to step outside and get somebody else's perspective.
Yeah, yeah, and that's that's, that's, that's true, you know. So it's talking about uh, having Jewelistic thinking, you know, with the things are Google bad, right or wrong.
Yeah, at Tempe it transformational Journey and sometime. Things happen in our life that pushes us to actually, Precinct.
Uh, what's important?
What's not important? Aaron Place.
Oh yeah, yeah. I um
Came from a really secular asshole. So like we were not religion at all that, I ended up going to a Catholic High School and I think that I definitely had a lot of premium ideas around what people who are religious like how they would think. And I think also even just in terms of like not understanding I think you the duality of that. Like I think that I also just did not instead have someone could like let's say I want to be assigned to but also still his religious. And then I think that um, Having friends, her, I like running my best friends, she designed to students. She's not like, I think that um, It was kind of, I get an experience of oriented size and understanding that, actually, what I understood to me. Like the relationship to religion is not like having a relationship, religion works, and I think just like understanding that every experiences are really different advice around that.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, libertarians. Yeah, okay, so yes it's It can be challenging particularly if you grow up in a drill cultural, but family background, if you have Two parents who come, who are from different cultures? Um, assuming that your erasion, are you Aaron?
Yeah, okay, so there could have been a push of pull effects. Sometimes in different households, where people one parent, lay, sort of feel that culture is superior, or more important, and they may try and sort of push that
Yeah. Surface stairs for me, it councillors and soap, I'll just have often been the ones to reflect back to me, my blind spots in a gentleman safe way. Okay. Yeah.
Yeah.
What else has got the end up?
Theory. You have you end up, please. Um, for me, I um, North African by ethnicity. So Audrey and also a Muslim, but I tend to like
No, change my values a bit depending on the person that I'll value your person's trumpet when they're talking to me. So I will like Just try and keep as open-minded and accepting as possible. When I speak to people, regardless of how I might feel about something. And I tend to be a very large type person and like,
My opinions on things and balanced when it comes to those kinds of things as well.
But thank you. Yes. Um,
It can be a bit of a challenge sometimes, but Yeah, we Up and Dewey.
Bill, we need a picture of people. Classify them. How often do we do that?
Okay. You spell you have your hand up, please.
Yeah, definitely, I think that even myself. Um I sometimes I feel the nature when I when I'm trying to understand someone maybe put them in a box to try and make sense of why they are the way they are. Whereas you know, you can't put people in boxes, you can't put labels on people, but each sometimes even if you're someone who's very like sensitive to the world around you, that's can sometimes be something that you might do.
Yes, they can be pretty.
Annoying and devastating for people when they're being judged or labelled like
