Being different isn’t easy, especially in a world that constantly tries to reduce us to the voice of the collective.  Dr. Annie Wang knows it too but is undeterred by it. Owning her own clinic is her American dream and she’s unfazed by the challenges that come her way as she reveals in her conversation with Darcy in this episode of Her Next Best Move.

As a Chinese medical practitioner settled in America, she’s faced the odds to rewrite her career by not just switching from an engineering profession to a medical one, but from her home country to another one whose even language she couldn’t speak so well back then. Dr. Annie is inspired by her grandfather who was a Chinese medical practitioner and wanted to be like him growing up. But you know how it goes in conservative families – you’ve to follow a path they pave for you! Dr. Annie was led by her family into Engineering as she was good at Maths. However, life came full circle for her when her desire to see the world outside China, coupled with her interest in medicine and the heart to help people, helped her find her way into medicine again! She was different by choice but did the work to pursue the path less taken, fearlessly.

Today, she talks about holistic wellness and the mind-body connection from her experience as a medical practitioner, both from formal education and Chinese traditional medicine knowledge. She explains how traumatic experiences are stored in our bodies and how her practice helps us release them. Dr. Annie’s specialty is acupuncture needles. She knows the human body architecture to a T and is able to use her acupuncture needle technique to work with her patients and release their hidden trauma.
