\\xa0Zara Barrie is a first-generation British-American. I know what you\\u2019re thinking. Brits don\\u2019t count. Guess what, they do. Even Canadians count as immigrants. We do not discriminate here, not by distance, not by language. A lost home feels the same to everyone.\\xa0

Zara is the former Senior Sex & Dating writer for Elite Daily. She has penned over three thousand articles.\\xa0

And recently launched www.CrazyBadBabesClub.com, a wellness publication for bad girls.\\xa0

Together with Dayna Troisi she hosts the \\u201cGirlZ, Interrupted\\u201d podcast. It is and I quote \\u201cnot a wellness podcast but a mental illness podcast.\\u201d\\xa0

According to Zara\\u2019s official bio \\u201cShe identifies as a mascara lesbian and lives beyond her means in New York.\\u201d\\xa0

Zara\\u2019s first book came out in May of last year. And I listened to it twice. I never thought I would.\\xa0

The book is called, GIRL STOP PASSING OUT IN YOUR MAKEUP: THE BAD GIRL\\u2019S GUIDE TO GETTING YOUR SHIT TOGETHER.

I thought that my need for wisdom about sex, dating, and mental health was satisfied by Brene Brown and Esther Perel. I really did. Who would have thought that who I actually wanted to listen to was a foul-mouthed New York neurotic lesbian girl?\\xa0

But she talked to a part of me that hasn\\u2019t been talked to in a while. And guess what, I\\u2019m pretty sure, you have that part too. Even if you\\u2019re a man. You might not like that part of you, you might diminish and even disregard that younger, messier, more confused, and arrogant version of you. But it is still there. And Zara gives it a voice.

Also, Zara is my sister-in-law. And I am super proud.

ABOUT WE THE ALIENS PODCAST:

We The Aliens podcast hosts conversations with IMMIGRANTS from all over the world who came to the US and found their path to the American Dream. No matter what their status is - undocumented, DACA recipient, permanent resident (green card holder), naturalized citizen - all are welcome here. We talk about the challenges of leaving the home country, finding the legal path, finding a way to belong in the new world, building a career, finding love, and sustaining the family traditions. We talk about IMMIGRATION as a process of growth and self-discovery, adaptation, overcoming cultural shocks, and fighting racial and ethnic stereotypes. We talk about the great contributions immigrants make to the American economy, culture, science, and society. We also feature stories of the first-gens, FIRST GENERATION American-born, the third culture kids, who have their own set of struggles growing in between the cultures of their parents\' home country and America. We talk about their battle to find their identity and carve their path while redefining what American is. We talk about philosophy, psychology, culture, language, and history. We also talk about the news of the day, things that we all worry about - but in the context of the immigrant perspective. If you love NPR, This American Life, The Daily, and Pod Save America, if you read Forbes, LA Times, The Atlantic, and New York Times, if you watch John Oliver, Bill Maher, Stephen Colbert, and/or Trevor Noah, if you are a Twitter and Clubhouse addict because you want to be closer to people,\\xa0 if you, your spouse, your parent, or your grandma is an immigrant-alien, and you know that you and they came to this country to build and contribute, and you can\\u2019t stand discrimination and belittling of their lives and contributions - this podcast is for you.
