Hope Has No Limits: From Congress to Space, Amanda Nguyen’s Journey of Resilience

Amanda Nguyen is an activist and astronaut who has turned her pain into purpose. “I was dreaming of being an astronaut, and then I was assaulted,” she shares. “When I found out that my evidence could be destroyed, I had to make a choice between my justice or my dreams of being an astronaut. At those crossroads, I put down my telescope, picked up a pen, and rewrote the law.” From rewriting laws in Congress to spearheading a historic United Nations resolution for survivors of sexual violence worldwide—and now preparing for her journey to space— Amanda’s journey shows us the power of hope, and her “never give up” spirit teaches us that resilience can move mountains. This International Women’s Day, we celebrate her alongside all of the women who are rewriting the rules, breaking barriers, and lighting the way for a more just and hopeful world.
