Our final episode of the season is a conversation with Lynn Liou, who has always been a fiercely proud ABC — American Born Chinese. Lynn is a mother, an entrepreneur, lifestyle expert working with brands like Hermes and Burberry, and even—an actual queen! She was Miss LA Chinatown. 

Lynn has always exuded a deep self-confidence, an ownership of and comfort in who she is. Knowing more of her story now, I see how the warm and loving relationship she had with her parents had everything to do with how she carried herself. We talk about what an amazing role model her mother was, how her own daughter saved her from the depths of grief, and the absolute necessity of having a village. Lynn’s pride in being Asian American is contagious and I love how much she illuminates the glamour of our community.

Please enjoy this aspirational and celebratory conversation with Lynn Liou.
