Part 2 of A Special Summer Series from Shanghai: In Context with Anita Xu.
Can you imagine your life’s mission is to meet the expectations of your parents?
Ever since she was a little girl, Carol pushed herself, moving to a big city from a small town, working her way up and up to satisfy her parents. Now, at age 33, Carol’s lost. Her parents have changed their minds. They ask her to slow down, but it’s too late! Why? Take a listen.
In this Episode 2 “Why Work So Hard?,” our contributing podcaster Anita Xu talks with a close friend Carol Luo about her dilemma.
This interview will be in Mandarin Chinese.
