Replay - Get Up Where You Fall Down: Xue Hongyan on Starting Anew in Your 50s; Entrepreneurship; Not Giving Up; Courage and Resilience

This episode is a bit different, because in this episode you host Ana Tajder will tell you her guest’s mother’s story. To Ana’s big shock, because of technical difficulties with recording between US and China, the recording of this beautiful interview turned out blank. But Ana believed mama Chen’s inspiring story had to be shared, so she shared it herself, using notes she took during the interview. Ana’s guest is a Beijing based artist and industrial design professor Xue Hongyan. Xue talks about her mom Chen who, after a life of hard work in a factory, started her own business at 50. Listen for a glimpse into a life of a working-class woman in China, and for important lessons on hard work, resilience, and courage to start a new professional phase in your 50s.
