Huijin shares who this podcast is for from my perspective and how her own journey makes her so passionate about the purpose and topics in this podcast. In short, this podcast is for all the people who want something more from life than just have a good job and be successful. It is for people who want to live purposefully, to express themselves more, to contribute more, to have more meaningful relationships, and who are willing to actively develop themselves to Be and Do more.

Today we continue our series on how co-vid is changing paradigms across the world and industries. Our guest presenter, Lei Chen, successful hedge fund investor and our LIFE2 alumni, chats with education entrepreneur Kor Le Yi. Le Yi is one of our REAL alumni and facilitator.  Her vulnerability and courage stood out the first time we met her, when she shared her passion for design thinking. We knew then there is something extraordinary in her. We are proud of her for charting her own path. Le-yi Co-founded her start-up right after college, Ottodot, to empower every kid to discover their full learning potential through her passion integrating design, technology and education.

Today, with inspiration from one of his 30 core books, we continue with our Wisdom on Development series with Tsun-yan, where he brings alive gumption using two difficult times in his life. The risk of almost failing Harvard Business School helped him uncover lots of resourcefulness in himself, whereas the second story has no such happy ending but made him swear never to judge prematurely again. He finishes by sharing how to overcome “gumption” traps so we can all uncover more of the spirited initiative and resourcefulness that is the fuel of being at our best and win at life and work.

This is the start of our series on New Graduates: Surviving and Thriving. My guest, Jonathan Kwan and I both graduated right after the dot.com bust in 2001. So we know first hand how hard it is to start work at the beginning of a significant economic downturn. And Co-vid is likely to be much worse. Though this episode focuses more on surviving – getting a quality job, competing with many others, this series will be about thriving too – how new grads can get ahead of the curve in developing the missing 3 - influence skills, judgment, and self-leadership while tapping into inner resources like courage, care, and compassion.

Our guest presenter Lei Chen talks to Joseph Mocanu, early-stage health care investor and alumni of LinHart Group’s LIFE2 program about how the co-vid crises are changing paradigms in healthcare and technology, advancing the adoption of innovations. He looks forward to a more seamless, less costly, and less risky healthcare for all.

In a quarterly sharing with LinHart Group’s high challenge high support groups, Tsun-yan talks about the 3 common tensions Early Executives face and the importance of leaning into both sides of tensions: practically lucrative / good for your development, self / authority figures, persevering / cutting your losses.
