“I feel trapped and betrayed by my own culture and my own family. I am the retirement fund, college fund for my younger siblings and I feel trapped,' 27-year-old Thea Pham said in a TikTok video that has gone viral.
A viral video raises awareness on mental health and establishing boundaries among families of immigrants.In a moment of vulnerability, 27-year-old Thea Pham posted an emotional video on TikTok.
She’s a biotech entrepreneur and was the youngest person in her class at UCLA to graduate with a Ph.D. in Neuroscience. Her family knows she is driven and successful and cultural tradition calls for, "It's your time, you made it, it's your time to pay it back," she explained."The truth about it is this is really about expectations within the family and lack of communication," Enrile said.
Her video went viral and garnered millions of views. That’s when she quickly realized there are many first-generation immigrants with similar stories, such as those with African, Filipino, and Brazilian heritage. Pham says her parents are furious she made a private matter so public. And while her intention wasn’t to hurt her family, she said she doesn’t regret posting the video.
