A life shaped by curiosity, courage, and connection.

Karin "Kay" Whang was adopted from South Korea and raised in the Pacific Northwest with five adopted siblings in a family with five different nationalities. After high school and during college, curiosity took her globetrotting around the world for the next 15 years.

Courageously confronting the unknown, from sneaking in and out of war zones to rebuild African communities to unraveling five mysterious deaths in her birth family, and meditating for one year in silence in Myanmar (Burma), Karin shares a lifelong map of her past that paved the way for the future and her discovery of the true meaning of solitude, freedom, and love.
