What We’ll Cover

Raised in Los Angeles by Korean immigrant parents, Jean Park spent years chasing the markers of success her family valued, only to find herself empty in the process. When she encountered Christ, God redirected her ambitions toward the deeper work of healing and restoration. Leaving corporate America for the field of psychology, Jean discovered a calling that wove together her gifts, story, and faith into an integrated purpose rooted in generosity and grace.  

Now a therapist, coach, and co-founder of the Abide Gathering, Jean helps others—especially within Asian communities—experience freedom from generational patterns that keep them striving instead of giving. Through her work, she shows how inner healing can open hearts to live generously, not from duty but from wholeness, and how alignment with God’s design brings peace, clarity, and joy in stewardship.  

This conversation offers clear, hope-filled guidance for those seeking to live and give from a place of healed purpose and wholehearted trust.  

Major Topics Include:

• Gaining perspective on your purpose
• Letting your life story speak to your calling
• Discerning when to persevere and when to pivot
• Jean’s healing journey
• Perspective through healing invisible wounds
• The gift of being triggered
• How generosity facilitates healing
• The long game of heart transformation
• Tips for discovering your integrated purpose

Quotes to Remember

• “I felt the Holy Spirit say to me, ‘You need to wake up!’”
• “God wastes nothing.”
• “Are you running from something or towards something?”
• “Oftentimes, our wounds are things we can’t see, and we don’t know how much they are hindering the flow of what God wants to do in and through us.”
• “If we are invited to face these wounds, I believe it’s a gift from God, pointing us to things that have been keeping us stuck.”
• “When we heal our wounds, then we are able to freely live into the flow and the way that God has created us to live.”
• “The thing about heart transformation is that God is in the long game. He is not in the ‘quick behavior transformation’ game, and that’s the beauty and kindness of who He is.”

Bible References from the Show

Matt 6:19-21 | Lay Up Treasures in Heaven  

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.  

Psalm 139 | Search Me, O God, and Know My Heart
