Synopsis

Tien Ngo is diaspora Vietnamese. Whose family are post-Vietnam War survivor. She began her journey to first understand and then heal from her personal experiences over ten years ago. As she processed the experiences that made her who she is and ultimately led her down a different path, Tien felt called to guide others to move away from a volatile cancel culture, disrupt the model minority myth, and build a new community culture. Her healing path lead her to call onto her ancestors for strength and guidance, especially the Vietnamese women of her ancestry. In a candid story of self-discovery, Tien shares insight into what it is like to navigate through the unsettling feelings of not belonging to a country while facing discrimination, hate, expectations, violence, biases, assimilation, and erasure as a first generation Vietnamese woman living in the United States of America. As she leads others through her recollections, Tien reveals how she was able to accept and name her experiences, and then create a spacer to reduce her caretaking role for those who abused and oppressed her and allow her to become her real self. A Blossom in Bloom is the memoir of a first generation Vietnamese American woman determined to heal from erasure, assimilation, hate, and the model minority myth and help others be seen and know they are not alone.
