I think those values were instilled in at a young age...my identity as an activist was formed really young and I think that was a way for me to be quote a model minority in the classroom and the workplace and then have an external place to channel all of the frustration and anger at the injustices that I saw and that I experienced personally or I witnessed my mother experiencing, or just members of my community.
What happens when personal trauma intersects with social justice? In this episode of 'Recovery and Transformation', host Sameer Dossani sits down with Heddy Nam, founder of Rosalee Consulting, to unpack this complex question. Heddy, an Asian American immigrant and domestic violence survivor, shares her powerful story of healing through activism. Growing up in New York after moving from Seoul, Heddy has spent over 20 years working in the non-profit sector, focusing on policy advocacy, philanthropy, and systems change.
She brings a unique perspective on how immigrant families navigate trauma and the role of social justice organizing in their healing journeys. Through her consulting practice, Heddy supports social change leaders and organizations, helping them step into their power and realize their visions for an equitable world. This episode dives deep into her experiences with corporate culture, NGOs, and the challenges of assimilation and inequality.
If you're looking for a conversation that blends personal resilience with broader societal issues, this one's for you.
