Joy Cho on Parenting and the Types of People You Must Have in Your Life
Throw the confetti! Do a little dance, because mama we have JOY CHO on the show!!! I had 2 pages of questions to ask her, but instead the interview was a conversation that started off the different the moment she was already waiting for ME when I logged onto our video call! From that conversation of valuing being early to an appointment, we discussed parenthood, being in the spotlight as an Asian American, how she parents and how she sets time aside each day called, “Joy Time.”
