This presentation by Dr. Jessica ChenFeng, PhD, LMFT, titled "A Long Faithfulness Across Generations: Rupture & Repair in Asian American Families," was recorded on April 10, 2026. The lecture was part of the 2026 conference "Our Flourishing, Our Faith: Navigating Rupture and Repair in Asian American Christian Communities," presented by the Center for Asian American Christianity at Princeton Theological Seminary and the Rosemead School of Psychology at Biola University. You can learn more about this conference here: https://ourflourishing.org/.Family rupture in Asian American contexts is shaped by immigration narratives, cultural scripts, and intergenerational silence that can sometimes fuel disconnect and distance. This plenary explores the sources of familial rupture and offers a multi-layered framework for repair that integrates intrapersonal reflection, neurobiological regulation, and relational attunement while honoring generational distinctions and Asian American relational ethics. The conversation will be grounded in the reality that repair is sanctification work—a decades-long journey across seasons of life that finds its sustaining hope not in resolution but in Christ who came to give us fullness of life.Jessica ChenFeng, PhD, LMFT is an associate professor of marriage and family therapy and DMFT program chair at Fuller Theological Seminary, and an associate editor for Family Process journal. She has been a practicing MFT for almost 20 years and consults with academic, healthcare and church organizations to improve the well-being of people within their communities. Her research and clinical work center around social contextual intersections of race, gender, generation, trauma, and spirituality. She is the director of the Asian American Well-being Collaboratory and co-author of Finding Your Voice as a Beginning Marriage and Family Therapist and co-editor of Asian American Identities, Relationships, and Post-Migration Legacies.Time Stamps:00:00 Speaker Introduction01:58 Jessica Opening Reflection02:42 First Client and Calling09:05 A New Moment for the Asian American Church12:12 Presentation Framework12:58 Theological Reflections: Sanctification as a Long Faithfulness16:46 Case Study20:17 Relational Systems Framework27:31 Shame and Therapy Pathways31:51 Common Asian American Family Ruptures34:55 Understanding Rupture39:56 Postures of Repair43:07 The Work of Repair44:59 Repair with Parents, Spouse, and Kids49:44 A Long Faithfulness ClosingPhoto by Hannah Busing on Unsplash This is a public episode.

Fractional work is exploding — and it's still confusing for a lot of corporate escapees. In this Featured Speaker session inside the Escapee Collective, John Arms breaks down Fractional 101 in plain English: what fractional really is, who it's for, how to get clients (spoiler: it's not campaigns), and what you can realistically charge.If you're still in corporate, recently laid off, or already freelancing and want more stability, this is the clearest “how it works” primer you'll hear.What you'll learn • The “W2 → 1099 bridge” and why more people are getting pushed across it • Why fractional is mostly a referral-based business (and what to do with that) • The mindset shift: conversations, not campaigns • John's simple relationship model: the “10-person circle” (fractionals, independents, super-connectors) • What companies actually care about (hint: pain, not the definition of fractional) • Typical pricing and why fractional often lands in the $8K–$10K/month retainer range • Why fractional is proactive leadership, not “wait to be told what to do” • The “project first” entry strategy — and why it usually turns into ongoing leadership • How to reconnect with old contacts without being weird or salesy • The core principle: get involved with other people's successNotable moments / lines you'll remember • “You'll work for the people you get referred to.” • “Referrals come from conversations, not campaigns.” • “Fractional is leadership — solve it and keep it solved.” • “Most barriers are fear and assumptions… it's hard work, but it's not complicated.”Resources mentioned • The Go-Giver (Bob Burg) • The NCG Factor (Larry Kaufman — Network, Connect, Give)

What happens when you're an expert… but nobody in your new industry knows who you are?In this episode of LinkedIn Riches, I sit down with Eric Ward, a former SaaS founder and CTO who exited after 24 years and decided to build an entirely new consulting business from scratch - in an industry where he had zero LinkedIn connections.Eric didn't try to “look busy” on LinkedIn. He didn't spray cold pitches. And he didn't rely on hope.Instead, we used a focused LinkedIn strategy to help him build credibility, start real conversations, and land his first client in under 60 days - all while learning exactly what his new market wanted.If you're a consultant, coach, or small business owner trying to break into a new niche (or feeling invisible on LinkedIn), this conversation will hit close to home.WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:03:20 - Why Eric chose to niche down after exiting a SaaS company10:12 - The 19-hour airport delay that changed his business direction15:34 - How we positioned Eric's LinkedIn profile to attract his ideal prospects18:22 - Why story-driven content builds trust faster than authority posts22:52 - What Eric learned from his first booked LinkedIn sales calls26:48 - How continuous improvement beats "set-it-and-forget-it" outreach29:34 - Why LinkedIn success feels like pushing a snowball at firstThis episode is a real-world LinkedIn case study - not theory, not hype - showing how patient, intentional LinkedIn lead generation actually works when you're starting from zero.(Note: You can also watch this episode as a video here.

Why do so many accomplished professionals leave corporate careers feeling confident in their expertise, only to second guess themselves when it comes to sales and pricing as entrepreneurs? In this episode, Deb Boulanger and Peter Svenneby talk honestly about what changes after the corporate title is gone. They explore the uncomfortable middle ground between purpose and profit, where self worth, visibility, and money start to collide. The conversation moves through the difference between scarcity thinking and building from abundance, why relationships matter more than polished pitches, and how sales can feel aligned instead of performative. They also address one of the hardest parts of the transition for women entrepreneurs, pricing with confidence in a market full of comparison and noise. This episode is not about tactics or hacks. It is about building a business that can support your work, your values, and your life.    Connect with Deb Boulanger To Watch the Show, click HERE For Full Notes, Go to LifeAfterCorporate.com/podcast Connect with Deb on LinkedIn, and Instagram,  Read More about Life After Corporate HERE     Connect with Peter Svenneby Website: https://foundheredge.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/foundher-edge/   More Episodes To Enjoy!

How do you get clients as a financial planner without buying leads or relying on referrals?In this episode of Financial Planner Life, Sam Oakes interviews Jak Ali, Managing Director of J.A. Financial Planning Ltd, a Partner Practice of St. James's Place Wealth Management.Jak shares exactly how he generates clients as a financial adviser using creative, confident, and relationship-based business development. He has built his entire client base without depending on lead providers or a legacy client book.After training as a barrister and working on a death penalty case in California, Jak switched careers and moved to Dubai, where he began his financial planning career in a pure business development role. No leads. No shortcuts. Just hard work and smart strategy.It was there he learned a powerful truth:If you can master business development, you will never need to rely on anyone again.He later joined St. James's Place at age 26, going straight into self-employment with full confidence that he could build a book of clients himself. And he did.Check out St James Place Academy here - https://www.sjp.co.uk/academyOne of his most inspiring stories?Jak saw a Vodafone executive on LinkedIn, but calls and emails went unanswered.So he flew to Luxembourg, waited by the stage at a tech summit with two cans of Irn-Bru (the exec was Scottish), and landed a 20-minute meeting.That conversation led to a new client and a mindset shift that changed everything.In this episode, you will learn:

I chose the path of tech and software engineering out of creative curiosity, yes. But on some level, if I'm being real, I also chose it because it would, perhaps, make my parent's sacrifice mean something. It was impressive, it was something they could brag about on Facebook. And, at the time, my inner child connected being impressive with worthiness. She connected being small with love-ability. She connected following orders with freedom from punishment. She connected suppressing desire with survival. In this episode we explore the ways our creative practice invites us to make new connections. Because inside the erotic as power, we find our fear based connections can't hold for long.
