Annie Forrest (Class of 2024) grew up in a small Appalachian town called Richlands, Virginia, where her family has lived for 8 generations. She left home for the University of Virginia, where she became an advocate for sexual assault and relationship abuse prevention. She then moved to New York City to continue this work full time at the One Love Foundation. And after 9 years away, she came back to Richlands and became inspired to work on uplifting rural communities.
In this episode, Annie shares her inspiring journey of leaving and ultimately returning home. She also talks about the Appalachian region, tips for healthier relationships, and reflections on her nontraditional MBA path.
