Kim shares with us her experience with the Bail Project. The use of bail bonds is a widely accepted but dangerous practice in the United States. Watch the video to see my story. I haven't been able to sleep at night knowing people are treated like this every day, especially our black and brown brothers and sisters. To limit this practice, we are raising money for The Bail Project . Every dollar will help bring this unnecessary and traumatic experience for pre-trial detainees, still innocent until proven guilty, closer to an end - both immediately and, later, permanently. More information about The Bail Project: The Bail Project is a national nonprofit organization that provides free bail assistance to thousands of low-income Americans every year, reuniting families and restoring the presumption of innocence. We believe that paying bail for someone in need is an act of resistance against a system that criminalizes race and poverty. It is an act of solidarity with local communities and movements for lowering rates of incarceration. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me. https://www.gofundme.com/f/Justice-Is-Not-a-Bail-Bond?member=12180677&utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link_all&utm_source=customer

His LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/happyjoonkim/ https://drjoedispenza.com/ https://www.happysuccessfulasians.com/ Taken from his website "I'm a coach and podcaster on a mission to help ambitious Asians overcome fear and limitations to grow businesses and create generational wealth without overwhelm and burnout to chart their path towards happiness and success.  I worked in Finance chasing my career goals only to go through multiple burnouts, depression, and anxiety attacks - struggling mentally and emotionally and questioning where I had gone wrong. But that pain took me on a journey to seek answers, and as I came across solutions, I wondered, "WHY hadn't school taught us these ideas and principles on happiness and success?". I felt that school failed to teach us the lessons that we REALLY needed to become happy and successful.  The BIG DREAM is to TRANSFORM EDUCATION to make it more relevant, but I’m starting off with my coaching business by helping ONE person at a time. And if this doesn’t happen during my lifetime, I’m working to inspire the next generation to make a dent in their own ways."

Are you? Are you sure of who you are as a man? Maybe you’ve given it a lot of thought and struggled. Maybe it never occurred to you to explore this topic! Either way, it is now time to think deeply of who we are and who we want to be in the world. And that includes expressions of our gender identity. The concept of what makes a man, what really defines his masculinity, has been the topic of much debate, exploration, and controversy in recent years. In this compilation of insightful essays, our group of thought leaders and men reflect on what shaped their own masculinity. Dream with them of a future where masculinity is no longer a topic around the battle of self, but instead embraces a vision of healthy strength and balance, and a strong sense of who you can be as a modern man in a constantly changing and challenging world. We explore topics such as: Defining the word masculinity - both its negative and positive uses Moving beyond toxic masculinity Self-expression Vulnerability Intimacy The role of ethnicity and racism Relationships Expressions of faith Ego Relating to the same and to opposite genders
