Thank you to everyone who came out to attend our AAPI Women’s Speed Friending event a few weeks ago! It was so wonderful for Jen | Asians In Bloom and I to be in community with you all! Thank you all for throwing yourselves into the experience with an open mind and heart. We got to witness so many new connections form as a result of the energy you all brought!

Some feedback we got from attendees:
🌸 “This was an awesome event for connecting with other Asian Americans in a friendly, casual atmosphere at Anh Oi bakery in the ID. I loved the use of oracle cards for starting conversations.”

🌸 “Jen and Adora created a very intentional, warm, and welcoming environment! Especially when meeting new people can be nerve wracking, I loved how easy it felt to share space with one another 😊”

A huge thanks as well to Vince’s Anh Ơi Bake Shop Bake Shop for allowing us to host the event in your beautiful space!

Stay tuned to catch us at our next event! 🐻🥳❤️ Let us know what kinds of events you want to see in the future!

Happy Lunar New Year! 🧧🎇💛

A year of showing up.
Of shared spaces, hard conversations, laughter, learning, and moments that mattered.

Thank you to everyone who walked into these rooms with us this year. Every face, every story, every gathering shaped what this year became.

As we step into what’s next, we’re wishing you a peaceful 2026. One filled with steadier days, softer moments, and care that meets you where you are.

The holidays don’t feel the same for everyone.
If this season feels heavy, quiet, overwhelming, or complicated, you’re not doing it wrong.

These are just small reminders to meet yourself with a little more care, and a little less pressure.
However you’re getting through it is enough.

As the holidays arrive in full swing, we just want to pause and send warmth your way.
This season can bring comfort, noise, memories, and mixed emotions all at once. However this season is meeting you, we hope you’re being gentle with yourself.

May you find small moments of rest, honest connection, and quiet relief. And if joy feels close, we hope you let it in. If it doesn’t, that’s okay too.

Sending you warmth and care this holiday season.

For many of us, “I’m sorry” becomes second nature. Not always because we’ve done something wrong, but because it once felt safer to take up less space.

This is an excerpt from a piece by Jennifer Tran, a neurodivergent (AuDHD) contributor and volunteer for FAUNA Mental Health. She hopes to apply what she learns from her anthropological and interdisciplinary university courses to uplift people to open more discussions about mental health.

If this resonates with you, you can read the full blog post through the link in our bio.

Highlights from our fieldtrip to the

Learning about history is one way to understand the contexts in which mental health, wellness, trauma, and safety develop in communities. We cannot separate mental health from the history that we come from. 🔍

Sitting with it is not about being calm.
Most of the time, it’s messy. It’s uncomfortable. It’s that knot in your chest you’d rather ignore.

Sitting with it means letting a feeling exist without rushing to fix it.
Not pushing it away.
Not pretending you’re fine.
Not distracting yourself until it fades.

It’s giving your emotions a moment to breathe.
Even the ones that scare you.
Even the ones you don’t have words for yet.

It’s choosing to stay present long enough to understand what the feeling is trying to tell you.
Not to judge it.
Just to hear it.

Because healing doesn’t start when the pain disappears.
It starts when you stop running from it. ❤️‍🩹
