In this episode Furkhan talks about how he was faced growing up with cultural barriers. Having immigrant parents from Pakistan who where very traditional and religious and then the flip side of the western culture and school. Furkhan talks about how he learned to wear two different masks to help him cope with the cultures and how he suppressed his feelings and emotions to fit in. This led him to compromise his own needs and become a people pleaser.
