Can you imagine growing up amidst the vibrant cultures of Guyana and Pakistan, only to channel those experiences into groundbreaking art and storytelling? Join us on this episode of Beachside Banter with Bee as Kirsten Rudberg shares her inspiring journey from a third culture kid to a panentheist artist and podcaster. Kirsten recounts the profound influence of hearing the Islamic call to prayer and how her multicultural upbringing shaped her inclusive worldview, which she now brings to life through her podcast, Bite-Sized Blessings.

Ever wondered how a childhood spent in different countries can mold you into a creative chameleon? Kirsten and I explore the unique challenges and joys of being a third culture kid (TCK), and how this identity creates a remarkable adaptability. We share personal anecdotes from our seminary days, illustrate the feelings of loneliness in monocultural settings, and discuss the restless spirit that drives us to constantly seek new adventures. Kirsten's global perspective also finds expression in her creative projects, from darker reimagining's of Peter Rabbit tales to an animated YouTube series tackling social justice issues.

What drives a creative soul to address global challenges through art? This episode delves into Kirsten's commitment to social awareness, her belief in fate and miracles, and the serendipitous moments that affirm her purpose. We discuss the intersection of personal belief, creativity, and social advocacy, highlighting projects inspired by real-world issues like poverty, prejudice, and environmental destruction. Join us as we celebrate the magic woven into Kirsten's work and the resilient spirit that keeps her creating, despite life's many challenges.
