My Profile
Chenyao Zhang
👋 Welcome to my world!
I’m Chen, a sociologist and storyteller deeply passionate about uncovering the societal trends and life decisions that shape our world. With a Ph.D. in Sociology and a decade in research, I’ve dedicated my career to exploring the intersection of societal pressures, individual choices, and human behavior.
But this isn’t just about knowledge—it’s about transformation and empowerment. I founded “Between the Lines” as a space to explore the hidden stories behind everyday choices, from cultural dynamics to policy shifts, bringing light to reflections that often go unheard.
As I expand my journey into coaching, I’m excited to help others find clarity, purpose, and direction in their own paths. My goal is to combine deep insight with actionable guidance, empowering others to lead with purpose and confidence.
Whether you’re here for insights, storytelling, or future coaching, I’m thrilled to connect and share this journey with you. Let’s dive deeper into the questions that matter most.
