Suzanne Roberts sits down with sacred artist, filmmaker, and relational therapist Helen Park for a moving conversation about identity, belonging, family, and the courage to become who we truly are.

Growing up as the daughter of Korean immigrants in the Midwest, Helen shares how she navigated the unspoken expectations of family, the pressure to assimilate, and what it meant to feel like the creative "black sheep." Together, we explore the impact of inherited family stories, cultural identity, and the quiet ways we can lose ourselves in the search to belong.

Through discovering her family's hidden history, finding refuge in the Buddha Dharma, and embracing her creative voice, Helen reveals how reconnecting with our past can become a pathway to greater freedom, healing, creativity, and purpose.

Whether you've ever questioned where you fit, felt pulled between different worlds, or struggled to stay true to yourself, Helen's story is a reminder that reconnecting with who we truly are is one of life's most meaningful journeys.
