When I Grow Up

Have you guys heard of the Council of Korean Americans (CKA)? On this week’s episode, it was an honor to be able to speak with Dr. Abraham Kim who currently serves as the executive director of the CKA. Dr. Kim shares with me the main functions of the Council of Korean Americans, why he is passionate about connecting young people with the right mentors and communities, and how getting plugged in with the CKA can be beneficial for everyone. If you have goals of being any sort of leader some day, you’ll definitely want to listen to this conversation.

My guest, John Song, aka The Futuristic Vintage, is back with my first ever PART TWO! In this episode, John chats with me about another passion in his life, music. Every conversation I have with John is always honest, vulnerable, and just a lot of fun.  Tune in to hear him share some of his process in producing his newly released album, Know Words To Say Vol.2., along with my (and my kids’) first impressions.

Yujin Kim Park was born and raised in Colombia and moved to the United States in hopes to pursue a career in animation.

On this week’s episode Tae Kwon Do Master, Stephen Chun, transparently shares with me what it takes to be the best. At a young age, Stephen had found his passion for the sport of Tae Kwon Do.

It was my honor to be able to chat with this week’s guest, John Cho, who is not only seasoned in his field but offers some invaluable advice for those who just want to succeed in life! Listen as we chat about self driving trucks, what his job title entails, and his experience in the startup tech sector.

Growing up as a competitive figure skater took a toll on my body. I am convinced that if it weren’t for chiropractic care, I wouldn’t be able to walk properly today. That’s why I was really looking forward to hearing from my guest, Dr. Mike Ho, about what it is like to be a chiropractor and his journey to how he got where he is today. Tune in as Dr. Mike shares about his experiences and why he is passionate about what he does.

Y’all. If I could do it all over again, you know this is what I would be doing! I loved chatting about all things dance with professional dancer and choreographer, Eileen Kim. In this episode, Eileen shares how her exposure to dance during her freshman year of college led her to quit school to pursue her passion full time. She also shares what it has been like to be a small business owner, as she and her sister opened their own dance studio just over a year ago.

 I met my guest Justin Oh in college and I remember him being a very creative, outside-the-box thinker. He's now a senior product marketing manager at Discord, and on this episode, he shares his journey and insights into the nature of his job and how his unique skill set got him there.
