The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: The One with Cindy Wilson - An Asian-Southern Belle With Too Much Soul

In a society that continually tries to box people only to be one thing based on race, religion, culture, and other social constructs, only those with “Too Much Soul,” like our guest, are audacious enough to stand out. Shout out to Skycedi’s YouTube channel where I found her!

Cindy Wilson is from Jackson, MS, where she graduated with her Bachelor’s in Psychology & Master’s in Counseling from Jackson State University and received her MBA from Belhaven College. She currently resides in Atlanta, GA as an Author, International Speaker, and Social Impact Strategist. Cindy wrote “Too Much Soul” to share her unique story about being adopted by an African American family from Seoul, Korea, and growing up in Jackson, MS. She hopes that her story will start conversations around race and culture and empower others to find the freedom to be their authentic selves.

In this episode, we explore Cindy’s childhood and early years as a trans-racial adoptee (raised in a Black household), her unique cultural identity, and major highlights from her book. We also went political by taking a critical look into the marginalization of Asian-Americans and the recent hate-inspired attacks on them in the US. We examined ways of achieving inclusivity and the role of other ethnic minority groups like Blacks in building support for Asian-Americans.

This is a truly power-packed episode that you certainly don’t want to miss. And yes, I gushed about Korea (what did you expect, teehee!)
