Asia Yun-Robinson

Today on Ready: Leaders to Know, I sit down with Asia Yun-Robinson, she is an author, Parent Advocate and Mental Wellbeing Advocate. Asia is the eldest of four, raised in Minneapolis by a single mother in a multigenerational household that taught her caregiving, perseverance, and community. Influenced by her Choctaw grandmother, Asia learned early the values of humility and respect for the earth. At sixteen, therapy after a traumatic experience became a turning point, shaping how she supports others. Her path shifted again after surviving an abusive relationship that caused a traumatic brain injury and epilepsy, ending her dream of becoming a neurosurgeon but opening the door to advocacy. Today’s episode is about resilience, healing, and turning lived experience into leadership
