WE are back from a long break! We finally pulled it together and this would be the first of the final 6 episodes for our fifth season.

-Working in corporate America, from consulting to marketing for Google
-Her Breaking point and how that led her to become a somatic life transformation and mental fitness coach
-Mental Fitness and how Amy gained clarity in her life after feeling lost, burnt out and hitting rocking bottom
-Talking to your immigrant parents about the deep topics to understand them
-Her book, Unfinished Business: Breaking Down the Great Wall Between Adult Child and Immigrant Parents
