나이지리아 유산| The One With Ezanya Obeten-Nance – On Biracial Family, Immigration, and Nigerian Heritage: Episode 39 (2020)
Were it not for Mary Slessor, who went about doing the Lord's work in Calabar, the capital of Cross Rivers State, Nigeria, our guest for today would most certainly not be our guest for today. Asides from being a twin, which many find fascinating, she has quite an interesting story.
Ezanya Obeten-Nance was born in Illinois, grew up in Nigeria, and currently resides in Louisville, Kentucky. She is a pathology lab supervisor who has worked as a histotechnologist for over ten years. She is the host of "The Izora Podcast," where she talks about faith, family, work, and trying to figure it all out.
In this episode, Ezanya took us through her journey to America, we explored her Nigerian heritage and how it has influenced her role as a mother, why Christmas in Nigeria beats Christmas in the US, interracial marriage, raising two boys, the profound "why" behind her podcast, family values, self-care, and so much more.
After spending almost two decades in the US, Ezanya shared some valuable tips for those migrating to a new country, especially new international students. Listen to get the scoop.
