Dr. Moon interviews Ryan Fukuda who shares about how he navigated being Black, Japanese, and Queer, within a family system that broke gender and parenting stereotypes. He also dives into his parents’ affirmation of his queer identity, and the experience of growing up Christian to enrolling in a psychic and energy healing school.
RYAN FUKUDA (he/him) is a LA-raised/Portland-based queer, Blasian American who wears many hats; a community-focused creative and events producer, spiritual teacher, and emerging filmmaker & writer. With a background in Film Producing from Columbia College Chicago and over 20 years of experience studying and teaching consciousness training, he now blends intuition, meditation, and energy healing in all of his creative endeavors.
He currently works with video, event, and community engagement clients on the West Coast and teaches online consciousness training as the Managing Director at Art of the Seer Academy. He’s conducted thousands of energy readings and healing sessions at events, independent retail stores, book launches, salons, art galleries, parties, and team gatherings at companies like NIKE and ASANA. He’s also taught hundreds of classes on how to consciously read and heal energy in a repeatable, confident way.
When Ryan isn’t collaborating with his colleagues across various industries, he indulges in Detroit-style pizza and comic books, or delves into screenwriting on quiet weeknights and weekends.
