Hey Family -

As we stand at the crossroads of understanding and action, the call has been made for us to confront the complex issue of racism in the U.S. I invite you to approach this journey with an open mind and, more importantly, an open heart.

Here, I've intentionally worked to create a safe space for shared growth and learning as we work together to embrace the complexities of race and racism in American society.

While our perspectives may diverge, my aim is to foster a meaningful dialogue on navigating a world that privileges one group while marginalizing others.

Let this space serve as a starting point for healing and growth, as together; we can strive for a deeper understanding and a commitment to be and do better.

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Hey Family-

Success can often feel like an elusive and unattainable concept in today’s society. We’re bombarded with images of people living seemingly perfect lives on social media and constantly comparing ourselves to others.

But the truth is a success is a deeply personal concept, and defining it for yourself is key to living a fulfilling life.

Often, we get so caught up in chasing what we perceive as success that we forget to define it for ourselves.

Success can mean having a fulfilling career, a happy family, financial stability, good health, or positively impacting the world.

The point is it isn’t a one-size-fits-all concept. It’s something that we all need to define for ourselves and work towards in our own unique way.

Here are some ways that I believe can help you navigate defining your success and how to work toward it.

Would love to hear your thoughts!

 Hey Family -

I just published my first article introducing my new journal series Skin Deep: The Complexion of My America.

The concept of Skin Deep: The Complexion of My America invites you to examine the complexities of racism in America by looking beyond the surface of our diverse and colorful society.

The phrase "skin deep" serves as a powerful reminder that to address and dismantle racism in America truly, we must delve deeper, examining the underlying structures and attitudes that continue to perpetuate inequality.

Only by acknowledging and confronting these hidden complexities can we begin to build a more equitable and genuinely inclusive society.

I hope you join me on this journey...I'm confident it will be special.

Thanks for your time...talk soon!

Much Love,
Dr. Jae

In this episode, I spoke with renowned sculptor, musician, and educator Peter Harper. Harper's work as a sculptor is featured in the collections of celebrities such as Meg Ryan, Henry Rollins, Woody Harrelson, Danny DeVito, Maya Angelou, and many more. 

As a musician, he has toured all over the world and it has been said that Harper approaches songwriting and making music like sculpting, slowly building one layer of sound waves at a time until the song takes shape and tells a unique story.

We spoke about his journey of self-discovery, drawing from his creative well and his life-changing epiphany at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. 

I learned so much in this conversation and I am confident that you will too. So, step inside my office and vibe with us on this episode of Dr. Jae’s Office Hours.
