Jessica Lu Instagram – He thanked me first. Can you believe that the first time Everest is seeing one of her parents on tv and it’s her DAD?!? Awards don’t determine talent, just being nominated again for his work was so exciting and such an honor. He said that when they called his name it’s like an out of body experience. Last time he won I remember being so present, screaming in the audience, jumping up and down, crying. This time I felt his out of body experience because I was suddenly so exhausted, transported to darker times. I’m so proud of my husband and I’m also so traumatized. I cried as I got ready to go out that day. People who “have it all”, how do you balance life and work, while maintaining happiness? Our hustle culture in this country isn’t sustainable. My work has been paused since 2020, there’s so much I’m juggling, so many souls I’m trying to keep alive. And I keep being told to “enjoy this time”, but how do you enjoy time when death is all that’s on your mind? By the way, my mom is doing great. You wouldn’t even know she was sick if you saw her. She’s currently giving Oprah a bath in our kitchen sink. The doctors said she would need to be in a living facility and would never be able to do anything on her own. Sometimes you gotta leave room for the miracles.
