Feeling Pressured by Her Parents to Choose a Career Path

Ami has dabbled around in different jobs and careers while trying to figure out her true calling. But her high-achieving Indian parents don’t get what, exactly, she’s looking for. And Samorn Selim, a career coach who works with BIPOC, women and first-gen professionals, speaks with Juleyka about how to get clarity around what we want professionally without feeling beholden to our families.

Ami Thukker is the host of Tuckered Out With Amy Thukkar, a podcast where she interviews South Asian trailblazers, leaders and experts around the world.
