I Belong Here
Living the Life I was Born for in America
Written with candor and aplomb, I BELONG HERE follows Yee’s journey from a cloistered Chinese childhood into mainstream 1960s midwestern America, navigating between dual cultures and revealing events that cause her to reimagine traditional concepts of family. Yee courageously pursues her own version of love and romance while training for the Olympic Taekwondo Team and discovers the destiny-changing power of massage and acupuncture and a future calling.
"Helen Yee exemplifies what it means to be a resilient immigrant. In her book, I Belong Here, she shares her life's experiences that have led to her success. Her secret? You will have to read the book! It is full of wisdom and insight that will help you succeed as well. I Belong Here is a story you can read over and over again - I did!"
