Welcome to my blog — and my life

betty ming liu April 1, 2010 Inspiration 4 Comments

Aha! You found me. I’m here to share inspiration and useful information from my journey to happiness.

It’s a miracle to reach this point. As the first-born child to insane, strict Chinese immigrant parents, I was destined to a dutiful, miserable life of high-level functionality. But as a recovering daughter who has spent a lot of time in therapy, I have discovered how marvelous it feels to do my own thing as a divorced, single holistic mom who is a journalist, artist, foodist and pet lady.

This website covers stuff I’ve learned along the way. Since I spent a lot of years as an adjunct assistant professor, you’ll find plenty of posts with advice on writing and reporting. I also blog about personal moments, cooking, art, parenting, dating and more.

So….hope you’ll consider subscribing (just go to the “subscribe” box in the sidebar column to your upper right). Welcome to my virtual living room, which is filled with wonderful readers and guest appearances by my teen daughter, our three cats and of course, the bossy little dog.

I’m a diversity and inclusion coach who specializes in life, work, communication, writing and creativity issues. I’m also a former journalist and currently a professor who teaches writing, journalism and communication skills.

Most importantly, I’m the recovering daughter of my beloved, control-freak Chinese immigrant parents. What I learned in transforming tough early experiences inspired me to create the Inner Child Institute™.

Our mission is to find your original self. These is your childhood within who still triggers and influences every moment of your life. Reconnecting with your inner child changes your decision-making process. Your priorities and perspective shifts.

Find your your unresolved pain and overlooked gifts — and you’ll find a path worth traveling! I bring to this mission everything I know about standing strong in community and diversity. It’s exciting work. If you’d like to know more about coaching with me, contact me by clicking HERE.
