Roberta Lipson, an American entrepreneur who co-founded United Family Healthcare in China over four decades ago, credits Mitch Albom's Tuesdays with Morrie with reshaping her perspective on life's purpose. Her journey from overcoming early challenges to building a healthcare empire reveals how literature can bridge cultural and professional divides.
In a recent episode of PAGE X, Lipson highlighted the book's timeless lessons on compassion and human connection. “It taught me that success isn’t just about building institutions,” she reflected. “It’s about leaving a legacy of empathy.”
The PAGE X series, which features global thinkers sharing transformative books, aims to make intellectual classics accessible worldwide. Previous episodes have explored ancient Chinese philosophy and modern wellness traditions, underscoring Asia’s role in global cultural exchange.
For diaspora communities and business leaders alike, Lipson’s story offers a resonant narrative: how cross-cultural collaboration and introspection can redefine success in an interconnected world.
