Between Two Worlds: Acupuncturist's Journey to Self-Acceptance

Los Angeles-based acupuncturist and TCM Doctor Drfelicechan recently shared a deeply personal video reflecting on her experiences growing up in Hong Kong and attending an American international school. In the video, a collection of photos and videos, she describes feeling caught between two cultures, ashamed of her Asian heritage, and facing microaggressions. "I spent years trying to run from my Asian roots," she shares. The video details her struggles with self-image, questioning her features and wondering if she could ever be seen as 'enough.' Drfelicechan's story is a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by many individuals navigating cultural identity and the importance of self-acceptance. Her journey culminates in a message of self-love and embracing one's unique heritage. The video concludes with her stating, "Today I've never felt more at peace in my own skin." Drfelicechan's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of celebrating one's cultural identity.
