LD “Will” Chen is an entrepreneur whose near-death experience in his early 20s turned him into a philosopher. As a practitioner of Dacheng Quan, a Chinese martial art, and a disciple of Li Chan Zhan Zhuang (Lichan Oneness) Grandmaster Yu Hongkun, Will serves as the Founder, CEO and Head Coach of the Lichan Oneness Institute for America and Europe.
Having suffered throughout his childhood and young adult life in China from asthma, liver disease, chronic back pain, leg numbness, burnout and anxiety, Will had embarked on a lifelong quest for healing. Yet in spite of enjoying all the outward trappings of success – a husband and father who had successfully built a multi-million dollar clothing company from the ground up – he found himself in a state of despair.
