  • Episode 9: Navigating a Major Health Diagnosis and Life Changes with Jess Liao

    In our second episode of Season 2, we are honored to have our friend, Jess Liao, with us. Jess is someone we've had the pleasure of knowing for a number of years and is a constant inspiration to us in many ways. In fact, our conversation could have covered so many different topics. Yet, here we had the privilege to sit with Jess and reflect back on her journey in the last few years dealing with an unexpected and life-altering diagnosis. In much of our own lives, we have all perhaps experienced periods of grief or can relate to the uncontrollability of our lives. Maybe, we're in one right now. In these moments, there is also a grace that reveals to us what is most important or what we truly need. And even, a glimmer of hope that begins to arise. We're so thankful for Jess in taking us along and giving us a glimpse of what it was like facing these moments of fear, change, and painful growth. We celebrate your bravery and strength!

    Jess is a co-founder of a new passion project to celebrate AAPI women creators, follow them at @ourtwotales on Instagram. 

    As musicians and singers ourselves, we'd be remiss to not ask you to follow Jess also on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4XceMNi1UAnWeeYgohKgBQ?si=yDuBMbl4Q0y_QYQ6oUtzdQ&dl_branch=1
