She is the former Senior Sex & Dating writer for Elite Daily. And last year her first book came out, GIRL STOP PASSING OUT IN YOUR MAKEUP. And we\u2019re not talking about makeup at all. We talk about elitism, diversity, and how to get your first book published.  Since it\u2019s part two of the conversation - we jump in right at the place where we talk about career stuff. If you want to hear about Zara\u2019s attempt at reuniting with her mom\u2019s culture and how she came to appreciate America with all its flaws - check out part one wherever you\u2019re listening right now.    FIND ZARA BARRIE: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CAWLAdFl-ww\/ https:\/\/thecrazysadbabesclub.com\/author\/thedirtybeauty\/   FIND WE THE ALIENS PODCAST:  www.WeTheAliensPod.com YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and on TikTok ASK YOUR FRIENDLY RUSSIAN on TikTok MUSIC: "My country" courtesy of Ben Bostick  www.benbostick.com   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,  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.
