EZ09 Brainwashed to Harvard

How does running a chicken business and a tiger mom who can’t speak any English make a forensic psychiatrist with a degree from Harvard? My guest this week is Dr. Michael Takamura who migrated with his mom at 5 from South Korea. Not only he played the role of a translator at a young age but also he managed their chicken restaurant. In this episode, Michael talks about his migration journey, financial difficulties, regrets, and how adversities built his unique character. I especially recommend this episode to immigrants struggling to make ends meet, those questioning their decision to migrate, and those who want to develop a positive mindset. Dr.Michael Takamura is currently practicing at Psychiatric Behavioral Hlth Grp15525 Pomerado Rd Ste E3 Poway, CA 92064 (858)592-6644 For questions about the podcast, speaking opportunities or nominating an immigrant contact us at Mehran@MehranS.com
