About Me

lia wong deeply feeling human

Dear Deeply Feeling Human, how wonderful to meet you.

I’m Lia.

I’m a kinesiologist, parent guide, mother, marketing consultant, website creator and podcast host.

I’m a human design Projector 2/4 (if you’re in to that sort of thing), so I’m equal parts social butterfly + hermit.

Paradigm shift(s)

From competing as a professional ballroom dancer to earning a Master’s in Food Studies, I’ve always been passionate about creative expression and the link between food and culture. In 2011, I started a digital marketing agency focused on the F&B industry.

After dance injuries, chronic pain, a breakup, and burnout, I found kinesiology and became fascinated by the body’s wisdom and the interconnectedness of everything. This journey reshaped my understanding of what it means to truly be well, beyond cultural conditioning.

Guiding lights

I resonate deeply with Aware Parenting—a trauma-informed approach to parenting developed by Aletha Solter, Ph. D.—and am a certified instructor. I am also inspired and influenced by Parenting for a Peaceful World by Robin Grille, as well as his work on inner child journeys; by Dr. Gabor Maté and his work on the connection between stress and disease, childhood trauma and addiction; and Neuroenergetic Kinesiology by Hugo Tobar in which I am a practitioner.

I’m never-endingly curious about the conditions we need to flourish.

I care deeply about creative expression, emotional health, and well-being. I’m in awe of the body’s wisdom and how kinesiology can foster calm and connection. I love showing how tears and tantrums support children’s well-being and helping families thrive with Aware Parenting. On my podcast, I enjoy hearing people’s stories, and I love co-creating with those who are deeply passionate, helping them share their gifts through website design and marketing. Thank you for being here. xx
