Story
"I'm going down now", I said to a young woman a few seconds before the darkness-my first cardiac arrest. As I returned to work as a behavioral coach, it became maddening to hear about all-consuming, everyday problems and misguided priorities while I fought to merely remain conscious. The Half-Known Life challenges conventional thinking of success, identity, and personal change. Most often, truly profound change happens following events that shake someone to their core-a car accident, death of a family member, or cardiac arrest that pulls them into a moment of clarity.

Publisher's Summary
If you crave stories of resilient people who follow their heads, hearts, and dreams, and if you like light-hearted humor and fast-paced thrillers, then you'll love Apple An's inspirational account.
Fleeing the aftermath of the Tiananmen Square crackdown in 1989 and fueled by a burning desire for a better life, Apple embarks on a daring journey to pursue her doctoral education in America. With no backup plan, Apple must make this journey work. But she has no idea that her starting place, Las Cruces, NM, is a quiet desert town—a far cry from the bustling metropolis she envisioned.
Anxious, ignorant, and homesick, Apple faces challenges she never had before. But she is determined to be open-minded. Excited and curious, will she simply survive the fish-out-of-the-water situation many immigrants experience, or will she thrive in this unexpected American adventure?
"Las Crosses" is a mesmerizing Asian American memoir that chronicles Apple's first eight months in America. Filled with humility, humor, honesty, and vulnerability, Apple invites listeners on a journey of cultural adaptation, self-discovery, and the transformative power of facing new challenges.
