Episode 1
Sunday, 25 January, 2026
In the Season 4 premiere of the Death in Cambodia, Life in America Podcast, we're kicking things off with a new focus: amplifying the voices of young, bold Cambodian changemakers. First up is content creator and community builder Priscilla Kim Ong, also known as Sela — a Khmer-Krom American who moved to Cambodia to reconnect with her roots and reclaim her identity.Sela shares how growing up in a predominantly white town shaped her early disconnect from Khmer identity, and how learning about Khmer-Krom history sparked a transformation that eventually led her to leave the U.S. and move to Cambodia. From learning Khmer with monks to launching Selarati, a homecoming experience for diasporic Khmer, Sela opens up about the healing, loneliness, and power of creating something deeply intentional for her community.We talk about her vision for Selarati, her hopes for bridging intergenerational gaps, and the musical and cultural renaissance she sees blooming in Cambodia today. A deeply personal, expansive conversation about belonging, activism, and the journey home.✨ Selarati is accepting signups now for the next homecoming experience in Cambodia, happening April 6–15 for Khmer New Year. Sign-ups close early February. 👉 Learn more at www.selarati.com or follow @selarati on IG for updates.Supporting Sela’s Work:www.selarati.comInstagramLinkedInYouTubeTikTok:
