Melody Cheng, Helen Wu-Wang, and Janet Wang are the co-creators of AsianBossGirl, a multimedia company for the modern day Asian-American woman. AsianBossGirl was founded to share their experiences as 9-to-5 professional working women, balancing careers, social lives, cultural identities, and personal development while living in the city of Los Angeles. What started as a passion project podcast has turned into a multi-media business that they now run full-time. On their platforms, you’ll find conversations about the nuanced experience of being an Asian American woman navigating the corporate world as a person of color, mental and emotional health as children of immigrants, interviews with inspiring Asian women (and men), and even blind dates recorded on the mic. Their mission is to make everyday Asian-American women feel heard, seen, and connected.

episode 166: Raising A Daughter as an Immigrant Mother - Our AAPI Moms
May is a very special month for us here at AsianBossGirl. For one, it is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, AAPIHM for short, and it is also Mother’s Day coming up on May 8th!
In light of Mother’s Day coming up, and the three of us on this podcast, today’s discussion will be honoring OUR mothers and talking about what it was like for them as immigrant mothers in this country. While we’ve talked about their immigration stories in past episodes (their journeys to America), we never got to really ask them – “What was it like for you, as someone who left home, to raise a daughter here, in America?”
This month, we are working with Old Navy on a campaign to celebrate our AAPIHM heritage. We are so pleased to be partnering with them on this very important conversation, so thank you, Old Navy, for sponsoring this episode.
