Peggy Kan Hai is a soul-led writer, mother, and longtime therapist who believes in the power of storytelling to heal, connect, and inspire. With nearly 30 years of experience in psychotherapy, life coaching, and educational therapy, she has supported children and adults through learning challenges, developmental trauma, relationship healing, and life transitions. Her writing gently bridges those lived experiences with a deep understanding of the human heart and mind.
Her children’s books — including Abby’s First Day and When the Stars Linger — offer young readers comfort, courage, love, and a sense of belonging. Both titles became Amazon #1 Bestsellers, #1 New Releases, and the #1 Top Rated book in Bedtime and Dreams. Both celebrated for their heart-led messages and lyrical beauty that speak to children and grownups alike.
Through gentle storytelling and soulful imagery, Peggy offers practical emotional tools for children and grownups to feel seen, safe, and able to keep going
She is the founder of Golden Thread Press, a sanctuary for soulful storytelling, and lives in Hawai‘i with her partner and her daughter Kaʻewa — who inspires much of her creative magic — just as her son Brandon did in his childhood, and still does today as a grown man who continues to inspire her every day.
