"I think I grew up more sheltered. I didn't have the typical New York upbringing." - Annie Vo
This episode was special in so many ways — not just because it marked six years of A Vietnam Podcast, but because of Annie’s story. Her journey from Saigon to Yale, and then full circle back to Vietnam, embodies what this podcast is all about: identity, resilience, and connection.
Hearing how Annie navigated culture shock, built a successful career, and now helps others feel seen and supported — that hit home. Her warmth and authenticity reminded me why I started this podcast. These are the conversations that matter. They’re real, honest, and grounded in experience. I feel lucky to have shared the mic with her on such a meaningful day.
Key Takeaways:
- Gossip Girl was based on her high school
- Learning English as a child immigrant
- Reverse culture shock moving back to Vietnam
- What was supposed to be a short stay became 8 years
- Her children are growing up bilingual and connected
Chapters and Time-stamps:
03:00 - Annie’s Background & Career Overview
04:00 - Gossip Girl & High School Life in NYC
07:00 - Immigrating to the U.S. at Age 5
13:00 - Learning English & Adjusting to American Life
20:00 - Returning to Vietnam & Reverse Culture Shock
28:00 - Why She Stayed in Vietnam
30:00 - Building a Life and Business in Saigon
33:00 - Family, Legacy, and Raising Kids Bilingually
