Today's episode is a replay of our live event, Journey of Hope: The Story of the Vietnamese Boat People podcast. 

Tracey Nguyen Mang, a passionate storyteller and founder of the Vietnamese Boat People Podcast, joins Norma Jean Belenky, Podbean's Head of Events to discuss the power of podcasting in preserving personal stories and uplifting voices within her community.

Tracey Nguyen Mang thought she knew the story she wanted to tell, but what she uncovered in her family's history was an unexpected twist that would change everything. Listen in as she shares the intimate and powerful journey that has created a global community of listeners eager to understand their own heritage...and maybe even discover a surprise or two along the way.

“The first episode was it's called Prelude, and it's literally me talking about why I'm doing this, why I feel compelled, why it gives me a sense of purpose to be able to understand this part of my past that I had been ashamed of for a very long time growing up as a Vietnamese refugee in America.” - Tracey Nguyen Mang

Tracey's journey began with her own quest to understand her family's history as Vietnamese refugees. Through her podcast and resulting non-profit organization, Tracey and her team document the incredible stories of Vietnamese diaspora, capturing the resilience and bravery of those who risked everything for a better life.

Tracey's dedication to fostering an inclusive and supportive podcasting community makes her an ideal guest for aspiring podcasters who value personal narratives and voices of the Vietnamese diaspora.
