070. Meet the News Anchor Behind the #VeryAsian Dumpling Rant

Happy Lunar New Year! Remember when a caller left a voicemail for Missouri News Anchor Michelle Li, saying that her dumpling comment on the food segment of New Years’ Day was “Very Asian” and that she should “keep her Korean to herself”? WE DO. #VeryAsian movement starter Michelle Li takes a moment to share her badass, bombshell self with us, and we’re OVER THE MOON (just in time for Lunar New Year, too!). Michelle is an absolute beacon, lighting up the classiest ways to embrace the unknown, lead with curiosity and take baby steps towards a better world. Listen all the way to the end to hear the REST of the story with the unknown caller, and get inspired by a woman who reminds us that when you choose to lead each day with grace, forgiveness and kind curiosity, you may not feel ready for life’s adventures, but you are certainly BUILT for it!About Michelle Li:Michelle Li is a news anchor for KSDK, the NBC affiliate in St. Louis, less than a year, previously in Seattle at King 5.
