Ever grappled with the feeling of being stuck between your achievements and the nagging doubt of unworthiness?
A shift in perspective can change everything. I learned this through my father's journey from a traumatic accident in Taiwan to the life-altering move to the U.S. for his children's future. This story of sacrifice and love is just one of the many untold narratives from our parents' generation.
We often seek control when faced with the inevitable unknown. My latest podcast episode touches on my preoccupation with death and how that shaped my life's outlook.
Join me as I share the insights gathered from living in the delicate balance of what we can and cannot control.
In my latest episode, I dive deep into this very space with 3 sample chapters from my upcoming book:
- The 'Space In Between' shows how we navigate our self-worth amidst success and uncertainty
- At 78, my father's attire remains unchanged: a cap, button-down shirt, and jeans. This image of simplicity belies his relentless work ethic, a theme I explore in a chapter called "Dad." His dedication to work, a silent expression of love, shapes my understanding of commitment.
- Trauma often hides in plain sight. The chapter, "Fa Zhan," which means punishment in Mandarin, reveals the chilling reality of emotional and physical abuse I experienced. This chapter isn't just my story — it's a voice for many who have endured similar trials.
