#106 - Surviving & Doing the WORK with Ellie Lee
Oh hi there, financial instability, existential crises (not just one, but 50), isolation, loneliness & uncertainty! So great hanging out with you all day, every dang day with no clear indication of when all this stress may start to ease up. Hopefully you're not sitting in that headspace too much, but JUST IN CASE that you find yourself in a rough patch, we are here for you. You are not alone. In this episode, Minji sits down with her friend, actor/host Ellie Lee, to unload & evaluate how to proceed through turmoil with sanity, purpose & dignity even when everything feels like it's falling apart. With two very turbulent lives leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic, they have some real-life strategies & some hardcore inner work to fill you in on. You ready? From learning how to check our fear-based egos at the door to asking better questions to yield better results, it's time to get to work. Together, WE. WILL. GET. THROUGH. THIS.

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR
"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
