Join us for a conversation with author Jane Marie Chen to discuss their newest memoir, LIVE A WAVE WE BREAK live recording with John Miles Jane will be in coversation with John Miles, for the Passion Struck Podcast. The courageous memoir of one woman’s globe-spanning journey of unraveling and awakening—breaking free of the narratives that once defined her and confronting the long-buried truths of a traumatic past—by the former CEO and co-founder of Embrace.On paper, Jane Chen was the embodiment of success. A Harvard and Stanford graduate, she was the CEO and co-founder of a company that developed a groundbreaking incubator helping to save hundreds of thousands of newborns in the world’s most vulnerable communities. Her work gave her purpose and earned her shoutouts from presidents and pop stars. Yet underneath it all, she was burning out—consumed by self-doubt and a relentless need to prove herself, shaped by wounds that had formed long before her career began. No matter how much she achieved, she never felt like she was enough.Then, Embrace collapsed. Jane lost more than a dream—she lost the identity she had built her life around. Feeling utterly broken, she set off on a global quest for healing. Her search took her across oceans and into the uncharted terrain of her inner world. She sat in silence for days in the Indonesian jungle. She sought wisdom from world-renowned healers and therapists. She burned holes into her leg for a frog poisoning ceremony. She dove headfirst into every form of self-help, from the spiritual to the psychedelic, from the cultish to the comical, only to find herself face-to-face with the one thing she had spent a lifetime avoiding: the trauma of her upbringing as a first-generation Taiwanese American. Jane discovered a profound truth—that real healing doesn’t come from achievement, approval, or even the tools we think will save us. A revelatory memoir brimming with candor, humor, and hard-won wisdom, Like a Wave We Break is more than a story of personal transformation—it’s an invitation to confront our deepest wounds and to embrace the messy, beautiful truth of who we are. Jane Chen is a globally recognized entrepreneur, inventor, and speaker. She is the co-founder of Embrace Global, which developed a groundbreaking infant incubator that has helped to save nearly a million babies. She has been a TED Fellow, an Echoing Green Fellow, and a Young Global Leader of the World Economic Forum. Jane was recognized as Forbes Impact 30 and Schwab Social Entrepreneur of the Year by the World Economic Forum, and was a recipient of the Economist Innovation Award. She received her MBA from Stanford Graduate School of Business, and her Master’s in Public Administration from Harvard Kennedy School of Government.

The Board of Directors at Suncoast Voices for Children is pleased to announce our 10th Annual Be the Voice Gala, to be held Saturday, October 25th, 2025. Every day, hundreds of thousands of children in the United States find themselves in the foster care system, seeking safety and stability due to circumstances beyond their control. Often, these children end up in the system because extended family lack the resources to care for them. Year after year, we remain committed to our mission to help provide for the unmet needs to keep children out of the dependency system, meet their needs while in the system and give them what they need to succeed once outside the system. The proceeds from this special event are vital to serving the children who are experiencing, or at risk of entering, foster care. We invite you to join us in the celebration to help Suncoast Voices make an impact “Every Step of the Way” for the most vulnerable children in our community. Charity.
