I met Asel Swango in a Manhattan restaurant a couple months ago. We started chatting and I asked her to come on the podcast.  The conversation went something like this: Where are you from originally? Her: take a guess…of course I had no chance and she told me she’s originally from Kazakhstan. Very intrigued, I explained my podcast and asked her to come on.  I have to give her credit, she accepted, and we stayed in touch and finally made it happen. At the time, I had no idea about her story and her journey, I only knew that she is originally from Kazakhstan, and an aspiring actress.  After a quick google search the following day I found out that she was adopted as a young girl.  Her story is really cool. She even asked her mom to come on and give her perspective.  So this one is a bit different than previous episodes.  We did it over Facetime. The audio came out ok, but it is a bit different than being in person.  I have to thank Asel for making this happen and making it happen in the way it did.  I had considered trying to do an episode over the phone but hadn’t tested it out.  Thanks to mom Beverly for her time and input on this episode as well.
