A Mindful Mission: An Interview with Shannon Lee, Founder & Chairperson of the Bruce Lee Foundation

Inspired by the wisdom of the prolific martial arts master Bruce Lee, Shannon Lee created the Bruce Lee Foundation (BLF) with her mother, Linda Lee Cadwell, to empower youth mental wellness through martial arts, mindfulness and her late father’s teachings. As the Chairperson of the BLF, Shannon shared about the foundation’s mission and its impact on young people’s lives; the documentary “Be Water” (2020), directed by Bao Nguyen and part of ESPN's 30 for 30 documentary series; and equipping youth with the financial know-how to build a secure future. This summer, East West Bank joined BLF to teach personal finance lessons to youth from the Boys and Girls Club of West San Gabriel Valley, the Jordan Downs Center, and Children Mending Hearts.
