The Present
I launched this site in the midst of my “professional halftime,” in Fall 2019. After 20+ years in the corporate world, I took the summer off to invest in my family (last year, we moved back to the States after eight years in China) and to write a book.

Getting from Weird to Wonder
Might this headline reflect your life journey? It resonates as part of my own journey growing in wisdom and maturity. Remember being a kid, when the girl with braces seemed weird? How about the boy who brought kimchi in his lunch? Totally weird. And the twins who were...
