Today we're going to be talking about crazy rich Asians. This was on our Valentine's Day poll and it was a very close runner-up. The plot of the movie is Rachel trying to figure out, figure out a way into this family that doesn't really want to accept her. Please remember that even though we are all licensed therapists, we aren't your therapist. If you are struggling with mental health symptoms, please find a local mental health provider.
In this episode, we are jumping into our private jet to discuss the modern day rom com classic, Crazy Rich Asians. We explore the varied ways that culture shock can present via classism, immigration status, assimilation, etc. We also, unfortunately, tear apart the ways that Nick does not show up as a partner for Rachel when it comes to managing the complicated social layers and norms of shifting from one culture to another.
