Bio:

I’m Madeline, a writer, trauma survivor, and mental health, and LGBTQ+ advocate.

Born and raised in the Bay Area, I grew up in an Asian American household where mental health was never discussed. As a daughter of a refugee, intergenerational trauma runs through my family, and I struggled with my mental health for my entire life. I thought that I was broken and damaged beyond repair, and I suffered in isolation. And when I started to experience PTSD symptoms in my late twenties, I didn’t know the first step in getting help.

Nobody taught me how to heal, and I knew I wasn’t alone. As I began learning life lessons along my healing journey, I felt an urge to share my insights so other sufferers like myself wouldn’t feel so isolated. In February 2020, I created a space for other trauma survivors, @HealingFromPTSD, which quickly became the largest trauma healing community on Instagram.

Through healing, I’ve discovered and reconnected with parts of myself, and I’ve cultivated a sense of internal peace and freedom that I’d never experienced before. I’m on a mission to help others do the same.

My first book, You’re Going to Be Okay, was released in September 2022 (order it here!), and I have a newsletter, Lost & Found, about healing, self-discovery, and more. Sign up here.
