“Annie’s healing circle at the Hmong Women Lead Summit 2024 was one of the most powerful and talked-about sessions at our summit. She created a space where Hmong women could show up authentically, share without fear, and feel held in community. It was exactly the kind of heart-centered, trauma-informed experience we hoped to offer.”
