Prema Saraswati Part I

Driftwood Conversations with Prema Saraswati (Part 1)
In this deeply moving first part of our conversation, Prema Saraswati shares her extraordinary journey from a mountain village in Laos, through the terror of war and life in refugee camps, to starting over in America. A member of the Hmong people, she carries the weight of her community’s history—survival under unimaginable circumstances, resilience in the face of displacement, and the quiet strength to keep going. This episode is about loss, courage, and the unseen wounds of war that safety alone cannot heal. Join me as Prema opens her heart about her family’s escape, the challenges of starting anew, and the beginnings of the path that would one day lead her to become a healer.
