In this episode of The Greek Podyssey, we sit down with two Greek-Australian guests to explore what it really means to grow up between two cultures. From the warmth of family and community to the pressure of expectations, from the unique schoolyard experiences to the lifelong pride of heritage — we uncover the personal stories, struggles, and advantages that shape Greek-Australian identity.
We dive into:

The cultural differences between home and the outside world

Balancing Greek traditions with Australian life

The challenges of stereotypes, language, and community expectations

The advantages of having two cultural toolkits

How Greek values influence career, family, resilience, and belonging

A heartfelt, funny, and eye-opening conversation that anyone from a diaspora background will relate to.
