Michelle Li chats with Kat Lieu of Subtle Asian Baking on IG Live

Michelle Li, NBC St. Louis Consumer Reporter-Anchor, and the founder of the #veryasian movement interviewed Kat Lieu of Subtle Asian Baking on Instagram live. Despite multiple tech issues, the #girlboss duo had a “wonderful conversation.”

In an Instagram post, Li wrote: “We had such a wonderful conversation (but the first 30 minutes didn’t save) —

Kat talks about what it’s like to dream bigger — from leaving healthcare to creating a global, joyful movement centered around Asian-inspired baking!

She’s the creator of @subtleasian.baking and will soon be out with the Modern Asian Baking at Home cookbook.

I’m so sorry this only captured the end of our convo, but it makes the live moments even more special. But this is a snippet of how we can lift each other up!” - Michelle Li
