Change is Constant: Sam's TCK Return Stories to the U.S. - Episode 39

This episode is Part 2 of our interview with Sam Fisher, adult TCK who grew up in Indonesia and Malaysia as a missionary kid to an American dad and local Indonesian mom. Returning to the U.S. for college was another huge transition, but his network of relationships from boarding school and all the new university friends helped him feel at home. 

Sam & Rachel (later with their kids) in Yosemite, California from 1999 to 2016

In this episode, listen to Sam discuss his journey defining his identity, embracing his superpower of fitting in, and processing his childhood even more as he and his wife raise their own four children.  He realizes that it is never too late for TCKs to have conversations about their growing up years.

"Every relationship is a cross cultural experience... you need to meet somewhere in the middle." -Sam Fisher
