  • Ep 31: Tapping Into Our Emotions

    Recently I did an emotional scene for a movie. By that I mean, I had to cry. It was the first time for me. Upon reflecting on that process, it made me realize some things: Do we allow ourselves to feel our emotions? How do we get to practice feeling these emotions? And are these ways healthy? #mentalhealth #emotions #emotionalintelligence

  • Ep 30: Projecting Our Anger

    What are you projecting onto others? In this episode, we'll discuss the incident at this year's Oscars between Will Smith and Chris Rock, as well as a recent personal situation I found myself in.

  • Ep 28: Home for the Holidays with Covid

    Happy New Year 2022! This past holiday was spent in quarantine due to Covid. Pretty sure it was the Omicron variant. Maybe this happened to some of you or someone you know, or maybe you're going through it right now. It wasn't fun. In fact, there were moments challenged my mental health. I thought some of the thoughts I had might help others going through it.

  • Ep 27: ”What a Difference a Year Makes” Life Changes and Making Choices

    I've been away because I had to. A year ago things were very different and certain decisions and choices had to be made. As a result, I've been finding myself in much more difficult and feeling doubtful and unsure in a much different way. Life happens and we have make choices still. I'll try my best to unpack this and share. #selfcare #mentalhealth #work

  • Ep 25: "What Was More Important" - My Personal Experience Working in the Film Industry

    After coming across Joe Rogan on the Breaking Points podcast talking about how the constructs of the film/entertainment industry effect people's behaviors and interactions, I felt encouraged even compelled to share my own experiences working in the film industry in China and Hollywood. After many years have past, looking back at the choices I made, and how today I would choose to make different choices for the sake of my mental health.

  • Ep 23: "42 and Feeling Good" Celebrating My Birthday

    Celebrations have become important to me. In fact, it's something I try to incorporate daily if not weekly. This past Saturday May 8, 2021 I celebrated my 42nd birthday doing the things I love with those I love.

    Thought I'd share with you some of the details of how it was spent.

  • Ep 22: "Love or Hate" - My Response to Asian Hate Crimes
    With the increase in Asian hate crimes and with the spa shooting in Atlanta last week, decided to take a moment to reflect on it as only as I could, honestly. This was a very difficult episode to unpack, but one that I felt necessary.
