Chien-Chi shares her personal story in navigating breast cancer and seeing the barriers that Asian women, in particular immigrant Asian women face in the healthcare system. Her journey led to the creation of an incredible non-profit, Asian Women for Health. From education to key partnerships, the organization is supporting the prevention and support needed for prevalent health issues.

Mental health is also addressed and in light of the recent hate crimes and violence against the Asian community, the need for the organization’s work in this space is critical. Asian communities are upset, depressed, isolated and scared, Chien-Chi explained in this episode. She faced a verbal attack too and when you hear the story of how she turned that situation around, you will be inspired to recognize the power we each hold to make a difference.

We talk about her personal story too and how life brought her to this calling. I think you will be emotionally moved and inspired by Chien-Chi’s story.

Funds and sustaining the organization is always the biggest challenge – if you are in a position to, please donate in any way possible, small or big is always appreciated. Further info can be found below.

As a master breathwork facilitator, she leads people through powerful healing and awakening journeys. Claudia has such a powerful, yet balanced energy to her being – with a hint of playful, enough to make you want to immediately join one of her sessions. We had a conversation that touched on everything from trauma, anxiety, spiritual evolution, plant medicine and just plain old good physical health; and how breathwork can be such a powerful tool for transformation.

Claudia also shares her personal story, from corporate high-flyer to a different type of power, one that is fortified within and how her divorce led to new realizations, as well as the path to personal forgiveness. I think you will resonate and maybe walk away with a desire to really delve into breathwork, I certainly did.

Food is foundational to our experience as people, we also now understand its criticality in the future of our planet. Having recently completed a Regenerative Food Systems program, she is a Food & Climate Shaper at the Future Food Institute and FAO (Food and Agricultural Organization) of the United Nations, while also supporting Charles Michel’ School of Conscious Eating Community. Eleni is currently looking at the centrality of gastronomy in regenerating the present for a sustainable future as part of her Master’s in Food Anthropology.

I had an illuminating conversation with Eleni to understand what’s happening with food systems and sustainability. Eleni explains these challenges simply and clearly – this isn’t just a conversation for the food nerd, it’s important for all of us to start to understand what’s happening with our food systems. I ask the tough questions, like balancing personal needs vs environmental and we talk about some of the misconceptions around the relationship between our environmental crisis and food (hint hint: almond milk). There’s a lot to cover under this banner, but I think this conversation is a great starting point.
