MY STORY
BORN IN KOREA.
RAISED IN APPALACHIA.
I'm a middle-aged, divorced, Korean adoptee from Gwangju, South Korea, raised in Appalachia — and life is just now beginning.
"It took your past, don't let it take your future."
If you're here, you may be going through your own transition in life. Maybe you're rediscovering yourself? Maybe you're meeting yourself for the first time? It's not a requirement, though. All are welcome.
My content lives at the intersection of identity, mental health, adoption, politics, and Southern culture — delivered in an accent nobody expected. Hot takes included.
My following was built on representation. No trends or special talents, jut a real person who is able to share their experiences in a way that, hopefully, brings joy and offer some strength to those who might need it. From the woman starting over to the adoptee with an identity crisis, I speak to it all.
Life isn't easy or fair, but we can still find ways to have control over our own destiny. I choose life. For the times I didn't and the times that I was too afraid to try, I choose to live rather than just exist. And just like so many other women of my generation, I am showing how choosing my own path is so much better than the dream I was sold as a young woman.
