About Jiggy Yoon
Na Eun \"Jiggy\" Yoon (she/her) is a Keynote Speaker, Youth Mental Health Champion, and Leadership Coach who has spent 10+ years making sure the young people most left out of mental health conversations — POC, LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, immigrant, and chronically ill youth — actually get a seat at the table.She\'s taken the stage at Penn State, UC Riverside, University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Business, West Virginia State University, Louisiana State University, College of San Mateo, Active Minds National Mental Health Conference (workshop & panel moderator), and many others, consistently achieving 83–96 NPS scores.Named \"Most Transformative Speaker\" from Dr. Eric Thomas\' GameChangers Speaker Training out of a cohort of 17.Invited back 3 consecutive years to speak in front of 150+ BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ youth mental health advocates.Her facilitation and coaching work spans 500+ programs and learners — from Fortune 500 executives and corporate teams to U.S. Marine Corps Drill Instructors and World Champion fighters.Jiggy\'s purpose is personal.She came to America at 10. At 17, she became unhoused after her apartment building burned down. She\'d lost both parents by her mid-twenties — and in between: a Type 1 Diabetes diagnosis, coming out as queer, and navigating life as a neurodivergent Asian immigrant woman in rooms that weren\'t built for her.She didn\'t just survive that. She built three national organizations out of it: Asians Grieving (scaled 16x internationally), Vulnerability Is Dope™, and Leaders of Impact.Youth and corporate audiences call her \"a safe space,\"\"relatable,\"\"powerful,\" and \"inspiring.\" Event coordinators describe her as seamless and intentional to work with. One leader said:\"Students were fully present, leaning in, attentive, and deeply connected to her message. Nothing but impact.\"Jiggy also offers flexible, tiered fee models — because the potential for greatness should never be hindered by budget nor lack of access to resources.
