Author
Mihae Ahn is the author of two books, The Stories We Tell and Perfectly Incomplete.
She embodies authenticity and vulnerability, challenging the status quo of personal development literature. Mihae positions herself as a fellow traveler rather than an expert dispensing advice from above, valuing genuine connection over authority.
In both of her books, Mihae shares her authentic stories of living boldly and purposefully, hoping to inspire others to do the same.
She believes that storytelling enables us to share our dreams, fears, and love, creating the true human connections we all desire. Mihae warmly invites you to tune into her stories and, as you do, reflect on your own.
The Stories We tell
In her second book, The Stories We Tell, Mihae takes us on a profound journey, exploring the narratives that shape our reality—from limiting beliefs that minimize us to empowering stories that help us realize our full potential.
Part memoir, part practical guide, The Stories We Tell reminds us that while we can't always control life's events, we can choose the stories we tell ourselves about what they mean. In doing so, we reclaim our power to shape not just our narrative, but our very lives.
Ever questioned whose life you are truly living? Ever wondered whether the beliefs you hold about yourself could be lies you have chosen to accept? Grab it. Tune in. It will be a raw, honest companion on your journey to review and reshape your stories.
Perfectly Incomplete
Real, raw, and refreshing, Perfectly Incomplete is a story of fighting imposter syndrome time and time again, unleashing wildly alive passion, and dreaming big (really big) that will inspire you to ask yourself, “Why not me?”
In a world full of advice and how-tos that are overwhelming and, worse, often irrelevant to our own lives, Mihae refuses to give advice but shares her stories.
She gives a middle finger to the filters and dives right into the real and raw stories of crying her eyes out, suffering self-doubt, having an endless loop of self-sabotaging talks, discovering what she truly wants, accepting herself, and breaking the tiny damn shell that had confined her.
Ever had self-doubt? Ever experienced imposter syndrome? You aren't alone. Grab it. Tune in. You will feel a ton lighter.
Marketing Executive
Mihae is Vice President of Marketing for a technology consulting company. She takes a systematic approach to marketing with the 6PM (6-Pillar Marketing) Framework.
Many businesses invest in marketing without a strategy and expect an unrealistic return on investment. Marketing can easily be overwhelming to executives and owners with too much information available, new marketing technologies popping up constantly, and a ridiculous number of advertisements and cold emails targeted at them.
The 6PM Framework guides through the noise and helps to create a balanced marketing plan. With it, clarity is gained, prioritization becomes easier, and as a result, marketing becomes a true enabler of achieving short-term and long-term business objectives. Then, only then, marketing can contribute to business growth.
Measurable, solid ROI by lowering the customer acquisition cost and increasing the customer lifetime value. This is the outcome of using the 6PM Framework.
EDIB Advocate
Mihae has deeply bothered by various forms of social injustice throughout her life. The issue she is currently putting most effort into eradicating is gender inequity exacerbated by racism and white supremacy. She fights against it by organizing community events, speaking, mentoring, and writing.
Here are some of her writings:
