A podcast created for Asian American & Pacific Islander women on leadership and culture. I’ve wanted to carve out a space for AAPI women to explore and validate living in both Eastern and Western worlds. Each week we will celebrate our heritage and highlight our history as we explore our AAPI journeys, parts that we are proud of and those of pain.

Episode 8 w/ Diane Dokko Kim

I know I start just about every interview off with “I’m so excited to introduce you to our guest this week,” but truly I AM SO EXCITED to introduce you to my friend, Diane. We had a very honest conversation which wove together our pride and pain in our ethnic stories and experience.  

Diane was born in Korea, but at a young age her family moved to Northern California. She talks about the importance of truly trusting in your own voice and expresses how she values being able to see both sides of her cultures and how it has become an asset. Diane is full of energy, wit, and wisdom. Look forward to hearing your stories from the show this week! —Viv

Diane is a Christian wife, special-needs parent, and disability ministry consultant, author and speaker. Her passion is to encourage and comfort others with the comfort received from Christ, and to speak up for those who cannot… Not everyone is affected by disability. But whether by a diagnosis, disillusionment, death—or the death of a dream— everyone gets “crippled” by something. No one is exempt from the jagged edges of a broken planet. All believers struggle to reconcile faith with disappointment, grief and loss —unexpected, yet powerful tools for discipleship and spiritual transformation. The greatest gifts can come wrapped in hardship. Brokenness may steal, kill, and destroy indiscriminately. But Jesus is an equal opportunity healer and Redeemer. Thank you for joining us on the journey of being wrecked, redeemed and repurposed.
