Welcome.  I’m Wendy Wong. I am humbled by these two signs in my garden:  Wong Way, and I Have Arrived.  The journey is just beginning, because I am a seeker, learning to pay attention to all the many ways that the universe chooses to speak to me. Perhaps by reading my blogs and books, you will listen more closely to the messages you are supposed to receive. 

I’ve known since I was a child that I was born to be a writer.  Through most of my adult life, I was a closet writer until a major health crisis opened my eyes and forced me to come into the light.  It made me recognize that my mission is to heal through the pen.  The act of writing heals me.  The act of publishing is meant to heal the world.

I am the mother of two (now grown) kids.  I have been married to their dad for 30 years. I am the daughter of a sweet woman with dementia, who passed in the height of COVID. I am also a Chief Marketing Officer, a creative leader of others.  In my personal and professional life, I strive to be a steward of the families, circles, and souls that I have been gifted to know.

I grew up straddling two cultures:  The awkward, unassimilated Chinese immigrant family at home, struggling financially in a white suburban neighborhood, and struggling emotionally without awareness of its dysfunctions.  And the predominantly white, middle-America that is the stage for my external achievements.  As an Asian-American, I didn’t always feel so lucky to be living in the hyphen, but that was because I allowed myself to be constrained by the symbolism of punctuation, until I changed how I define myself to (Asian-American).  The parenthesis began to matter more than the hyphen.  When my kids were barely five and two, I declared our family a transition family.  Our job was to redefine what we mean by an (Asian-)American family.  Our transition was also away from the stuff that didn't work from our own upbringing.

Now that my kids are grown, I can focus on my own life dreams, which is to write and to publish.  You could say, Wong Way has found her way.  I have arrived at a place in my own spiritual journey where I have made important discoveries.  I suffered maybe a little more than I needed to, so I hope for others to suffer less.  Because I learned some unusual coping techniques and uncovered some hidden wisdom, I am charged with the mission to heal through the pen.  

I am constantly opening my mind to the greater depths of magic, mystery and wonder of the universe.  And each day, I am moved by its wisdom.
