Christine Yi Suh’s writing is like a breath of f

Christine Yi Suh’s writing is like a breath of fresh air 💙 The way she balances the nuances of creativity, spirituality, justice, and hope in her work is a consistent encouragement to me and all who have the chance to encounter her!! I hope her words encourage you too:

“In the stillness, I hope you hear these truths: You are loved. You are worthy of healing. Your very breath is a gift. Your existence is an act of resistance. You are a golden, shimmering light of God’s sustaining grace. As the sun rises tomorrow, may you know: As sure as the sun will come, Life is still possible right where you are, just as you are. Hope is still on the horizon.” ☀️

I’m so honored to feature Christine’s words through art as part of a series this month where I honor a few of the many AAPI women who have influenced my life and work. AND she just released a book, “Forty Days on Being a Four.” 🤩 What a lovely opportunity to encounter the Enneagram from the perspective of an Asian woman author, one of many voices often underrepresented in the world of Christian literature.

Thank you for always calling us towards collective healing and liberation for the flourishing of us all, @christineyisuh. It’s my joy to amplify your voice today. ✨ #AAPIHeritageMonth

We won’t always know exactly what to say to some

We won’t always know exactly what to say to someone who’s going through a tough season… but we can always be a bit more intentional as we try to figure it out 🌼

Last week, I polled y’all in my IG stories and asked for examples of phrases said to you during hard times that were helpful or unhelpful. Thousands of y’all (!!!!!!!) sent in responses with all sorts of thoughts, and I quickly realized that this subject wouldn’t be as easy as a single infographic!! 🥴😂

As I went through all of the info, I sorted the phrases into buckets to try and get a grasp at what you found most helpful/unhelpful. There’s tons I want to touch on, but I figured I’d lead with what helps & create a general guide for those of us who don’t always know where to start when wanting to be more intentional and present for our hurting neighbors (myself included!!) 💛

My biggest takeaway? There’s no “right” way to do this!! Each human is unique, with different needs during different seasons. It’s tricky, and there’s no step-by-step guide… but hopefully, these ideas can help. It all begins with assessing our personal relationships and taking the time to be both specific & personalized in our approach to being supportive. 🤟🏾

Like a handmade bouquet, thoughtful words crafted with honesty and intention can contribute to the healing of the human soul. Will every flower be right for every person? Probably not. Will you have to make adjustments & cater to an individual’s needs? Probably. 💐

Sometimes, it may seem like nothing we say will actually help… but learning how to love well during storms is part of the longer journey towards cultivating a life of empathy. And we’ll all be better for it. ⛅️

When approached with openness, humility, and a wil

When approached with openness, humility, and a willingness to learn, intentional reading helps us to embrace new perspectives and challenge our existing worldview 📖

I’m endlessly inspired by the stories of those who defy the odds and succeed in the face of doubt, hardship, and oppression, so I was really excited when @literati invited me to join Stephen Curry’s book club, Underrated! Stephen Curry’s picks have tackled stories of breaking barriers and fighting for justice, and he aims to highlight underrepresented authors, including women and people of color.

Literati is a really neat book subscription service that allows you to join the book club of a world leader (known as your Luminary) and follow along with their monthly book pick that’s delivered to your door! There’s also a fun app that let’s you keep track of your progress and chat with other readers. 📚

Check out Literati at the link in my bio to find a book club for you (and your little ones too!) What’s a book that’s shaped your worldview this past year? Comment below to let me know! #ad #literati #todayweread
