"As a first generation Asian American who immigrated to the states as a child, I often grappled with the conflict of owning my heritage and staying connected to my culture, while also desperately wanting to feel that I belong in the world I was raised in outside of my home. What does it mean to be both Chinese and American? I still don't have the perfect answer to that question as an adult, but I wish I had a book like this growing up that encouraged me to celebrate the special inner qualities that make me who I am as a human, first." - Ellen Yin, Founder and Host of Cubicle to CEO (R)
