Continuing with Asian Pacific Heritage Month, joining me in this episode is Emily Chui. Emily is a returning guest, having previously joined me in Episode 024 with an introduction to acupuncture.
Emily has been my acupuncturist for the past five years (and counting!) and has taught me so much about Traditional Chinese Medicine.
In this episode, Emily shares:
- Her immigration story migrating from Hong Kong to Southern California as a high school student
- What her transition to American schools was like
- Why she pursued a career in acupuncture (after getting her undergraduate degree in a different field)
- Similarities and differences between Western medicine and TCM
- What are ear seeds and how they can be beneficial for healing
