Interview with a Bestselling Author

On this last day of Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, I wanted to share my interview with bestselling author Stephane Foo for The Rumpus. Her memoir What My Bones Know about complex PTSD covers her childhood trauma as well as information from experts on how to heal. She is an Emmy award-winning former producer of This American Life.

Foo and I both have complex-PTSD and share many similar traumatic childhood experiences. One of the themes of my memoir-in-progress is how to overcome generational trauma. It’s not easy, but it can be done.

All the best,

My birth mother left me on a stairwell in Hong Kong. Someone took me to the Pearl S. Buck orphanage where I lived for 15 months before a Chinese-American couple adopted me. So much of my life was mired in shame and secrets foisted on me by my traditional Chinese parents. It's time to share my truth and throw off the shackles of shame through essays, personal reported pieces and the memoir I'm writing. IG and Twitter @yvonneliuwriter.
