Tea, Culture, and Identity: Celebrating AAPI Month with Jenny Tse of Sipping Streams Tea Company

 
 

Welcome to another special episode of the Product Boss Podcast! This month, we're celebrating Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Month and having some truly important conversations. Join us as we talk to our friend and student, Jenny Tse of Sipping Streams Tea Company, about her unique experience as an AAPI business owner and how we can all support AAPI businesses. Let's dive into the complexities of being both Asian and American, while also embracing our cultural heritage and using our platforms for positive change.

EMBRACING OUR AAPI IDENTITY AND SUPPORTING BUSINESSES

Being AAPI means navigating an intercultural situation. Our heritage often discourages making waves, but now is the time to speak up and share our experiences. Jenny opens up about the challenges of being an Asian business owner in Alaska and the misconceptions she's faced. As we continue our conversation, we'll also discuss the importance of staying true to our roots and recognizing the vast diversity within the AAPI community.

This episode is all about breaking stereotypes, supporting AAPI-owned businesses, and understanding the unique experiences of AAPI entrepreneurs. So let's dive in and explore how we can all learn from and uplift the voices of AAPI business owners in our community.
