Have you ever felt that life was calling you in another direction? Sometimes, things that we’ve built and poured ourselves into, whether it be careers, institutions, or dreams, begin to change in ways that we can’t control, and letting go of what once defined us can feel impossible. However, it can also be the beginning of something new. The truth is, endings, while painful, often make space for transformation, reflection, and rediscovery.
In today's Part 3 episode, my conversation with Dr. Yun Kim continues as we discuss the closure of Emperor’s College, her family’s legacy in acupuncture, and her personal journey of navigating loss and rebirth. Dr. Kim shares what it was like to make the difficult decision to close the institution her family founded. She talks about how she cared for herself, with the help of her community, and what she’s learned about identity, leadership, and healing through undergoing this time of transition. We also explore the future of acupuncture education, the integration of the practice with modern technology, and the lasting impact of Dr. Kim’s students, who continue to shape the world of integrative medicine.
Tune in and listen to the thirty-third episode of I Can Do This, Show Me How! to hear how Dr. Kim found meaning in closure, freedom in uncertainty, and strength in transformation.
