Reclaiming peace, self-worth, and truth
Welcome to Quixotic Heights, where dreams take flight! Here, we explore the stories that shape us and the voices that heal us.
Our guest is Anhtuan Do, the author of Healing—a beautifully raw and honest book that explores the tender, often painful journey of reclaiming peace, self-worth, and truth. Through poetic language and deep introspection, Anhtuan invites us into a space of courage, vulnerability, and growth.
Content warning: this conversation includes a discussion of suicide, suicidal thoughts, and mental health challenges. If this is a sensitive topic for you, please take care while listening. Your well-being matters. And if you or someone you love is struggling, please know that help is available.
In this conversation, we’ll talk about the experiences that shaped his path, the challenges of writing through pain, and what healing really means—not as a destination but as a lifelong process.
Whether you’re deep in your own healing or just beginning to ask the hard questions, this episode is for you.
Anhtuan Do is a storyteller based in Maplewood, NJ. From the ages of 12-42, he was suicidal. In January of 2023, he finally got help. Ten weeks and 400 hours of therapy work later, writing spilled out. In his own words, Anhtuan shares with us what his book, HEALING, is about.
“The first time I thought about suicide, I was twelve. In January of 2023, thirty years later, I finally got help. I did 400 hours of therapy in ten weeks. If you estimate that most people do an hour a week, I conservatively did eight years in those weeks. As March came along, writing spilled out, specifically screenplays. By September, I finished my fourth, thirteen more sit in my head. This is that journey.”
