#84 - Staying True To Yourself with James Han aka UZUHAN

With heavy expectations from family & friends, changing trends, & constantly shifting priorities, how do we handle that lofty ideal of "staying true to yourself"? What does that even mean? The process of growing as a person definitely involves asking some tough questions and making big choices about our time, energy & responsibilities. To unpack this, Minji sits down with her friend, rapper James Han aka UZUHAN during a visit to LA.  From shifting career focuses to leaving the nest & moving to Atlanta as a Korean American artist & a strong man of faith, James knows the challenges of accepting who he is when everyone is ready to put him in a box or measure him by certain (sometimes whack) expectations. From rocking his own personal style, hustling to pay the bills, defining what it means to be a man & pursuing/marrying the woman of his dreams, James's story is so relatable to anyone who's learning how to love themselves while being a work in progress
