Bulk orders = big impact 💚
Every time a conference, company, school, or book club pre-orders my book, "Personal Branding for Introverts" in bulk, 3 things happen:

📗 My publisher PRINTS more copies
📗 Bookstores ORDER more copies
📗 Amplifies that introverts DESERVE a seat at the table!!

Chemo didn’t stop me from writing a book.

Today:
✅ Bone density scan
💉 Scheduling infusions
📖 Reflecting on the book I wrote

Being a cancer survivor taught me that creativity doesn’t wait for perfect timing & healing and storytelling are ways of saying: I am still here.

How do you keep creating?

💡 Burnout Isn’t a (Good) Badge. 💡

I’m deeply grateful to share my first guest column with Fast Company!

Three takeaways:
👉 Boundaries are a superpower.
👉 You gotta lock in (aka FOCUS).
👉 Rest is a real strategy.

To everyone who’s already done a bulk order: THANK YOU. You’re opening doors for POC voices in business & telling a BIG 5 PUBLISHER to platform more of them!

If you don't need a bulk order, pls consider ordering a book for yourself or an introvert here to support! bookshop.org/p/books/pers...

Did you know that unless you have an AUTOMATIC bestselling book, that it costs $$$$$ to be in airport bookstores?

Publishers usually pass on this MASSIVE COST to AUTHORS.

Thankful today that this bookstore let me take a pic but also they are gonna buy a copy of my book!!! SHOP INDIE!!

BEING BRAVE!!! Today at the Denver airport, I stopped by the iconic Tattered Cover Bookstore
and manager Kat + two amazing folks told me they’ll order a copy of my book for the store!!!

3 lessons I've learned:

👉 Always be prepared.
👉 Have gratitude if someone listens.
👉 Stay gracious.

happy MID AUTUMN FESTIVAL
and happy FULL MOON!

I have so much pride in my culture after years of feeling like I had to shrink myself down as an Asian American. I hope you have the space to feel the same pride too.

I'm a child of immigrants and I spent nights watching old Chinese dramas where the moon carried legends.

My fav story was Chang’e, the goddess with a bunny who turned longing into light.

Pics: my book at Barnes & Noble next to 2 moon kids books & my fav mooncake brand

two kids books called chang'e on the moon and A big mooncake for little star next to my personal branding for introverts book
