Story & Lesson Highlights with Angela Su

We recently had the chance to connect with Angela Su and have shared our conversation below.

Good morning Angela, it’s such a great way to kick off the day – I think our readers will love hearing your stories, experiences and about how you think about life and work. Let’s jump right in? When was the last time you felt true joy?
I believe that joy is our true nature, and true fulfillment is being able to return to it. While there are moments where I experience glimpses of it, it can be easy to get caught back in what seem to be predicaments of day-to-day life.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I create paintings in the style of abstract expressionism. Others have described my work to be what is often called “light code art”. Sometimes the soul wants to speak in ways that human language cannot express or even logically explain. My works represent letting go of self-consciousness, coming back into the essence of creation, and realizing how beautiful that is.

Amazing, so let’s take a moment to go back in time. What was your earliest memory of feeling powerful?
One of my earliest memories from childhood was having the awareness that I was more than just this physical vessel. While I might not have understood it from a logical perspective, it was just a sense— a natural knowing which did not need to be questioned.

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
I feel that suffering shows us when to surrender to the natural flow of life, especially when we want to control everything. We may believe we know what’s best for us, yet there are often greater opportunities waiting for us that we cannot see just yet.

I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. What’s a belief or project you’re committed to, no matter how long it takes?
Remembering to have “certainty beyond logic”— to know and have certainty that everything that happens is for the good.

Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. What do you think people will most misunderstand about your legacy?
Everyone experiences their world through their own lens, shaped by their background, experiences, beliefs, and emotions. There’s a quote that says, “no one sees what you see, even if they see it too”. With that in mind, I’d actually be surprised if there were no misunderstandings.
