Breaking Down With Sue Chan

Wake up, and play a round of Wordle in bed. Send my score to my best friends in NYC, and attempt to meditate, while trying to not fall back asleep (which, let’s be honest, is still a work in progress).

Walk over to Canyon Coffee, where my go-to order is a slice of Sasha Piligian’s Coconut Carrot Loaf Cake and an iced coffee. Run into a friend or two, and meet some local pups. Stop by Cookbook, on the same block, to buy ingredients for lunch, or snack-time, like a perfectly ripe avocado (wow, do I live in LA or do I live in LA?), to fuel me for virtual meetings with new potential collaborators, current clients, my events and brand teams, and my managing director, Alexandra. I’m still trying to understand how we used to function without back-to-back Zoom calls.

Head across town for a power lunch meeting with a new prospective business collaborator at our client’s restaurant, Gucci Osteria Beverly Hills. I must admit, there’s nothing like a Michelin-award-winning burger for a midweek lunch.

Scope out the MAK Center, on my way home, for an upcoming client event. Decide this is the perfect space.

Unwind by playing tennis with my friend, Sung, at the gem that is Vermont Canyon Tennis Courts, nestled into the hills of Griffith Park, and available for public rental.

Off to dinner hosted by my dear friend Gina, the queen of dinner parties, who never fails to fill my stomach and my soul.

Do my face routine and hop into bed.
