What's in a name? Exploring "name angst" and why pronouncing names right matters

In this episode, my friend Terhys and I talk a bit about our names and how they are tied to our identities. My name has always been a bit of a sensitive issue for me because up until a few years ago, I deliberately mispronounced my name to make myself seem less "foreign". It never sat right with me though, because I always knew that I was denying an integral part of myself. 

Have a listen and let me know what you think. And if you also have your own "name angst" experiences, then feel free to share!!
