I wrote about this Saturday's Golden Market in Chicago and other small Asian-owned businesses for @newcity
resto.newcity.com
The second annual Golden Market will host twenty-three vendors and artists representing the broad Asian-American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Island (AANHPI) diaspora.

The creativity that fuels our flames can also weigh us down. These techniques can help you prevent and bounce back from burnout.

I had the honor of dancing in the new music video “Slight” by one of my favorite bands @lapecheband! I shot the video in IL & CT in my apartment, in my car, in my office parking lot, at my son’s school, at a highway rest stop & at 2 parks. Check it out!

My episode of @volumeknob1 is out now! I talk about how as a teenager I use to head bang to “Get The Fuck Out” by @OfficialSkidRow @sebastianbach every time my dad and his girlfriend would leave the house 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Circumstances at home were too tenuous for @amberbdrea to have a "normal" teenage rebellion. That said, every once in awhile, she'd use her dad's (very forbidden) stereo and turn it ALL..THE WAY...UP! You can hear Amber's story here: https://t.co/dL4fkZ1VQ7 or wherever you pod
