Cant wait to see you at Thriving Dot 's event tomorrow!
I'm super excited to announce our co-host for our upcoming Thriving Circle: Unwritten - Let's Rewrite Our Stories event. Maycee has such a positive energy and will be guiding all of us to the next level of transformation we were meant to be.
Maycee Vee is a Hmong American multipotentialite who blends strength, creativity, and purpose into every area of her life. Known for her early morning powerlifting sessions at 3 a.m., she is a personal trainer, a mental health advocate, writer, speaker, and digital strategist who embodies discipline, resilience, and self-expression. Her journey is rooted in the power of visualization and grit, all while mastering a dynamic, evolving identity that adapts without losing one's sense of selfâtools she uses to balance her passions while inspiring others to step into their fullest potential.
She holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Science in Counseling & Student Personnel from Minnesota State University, Mankato. Maycee began her career in Student Affairs, where she empowered students to think beyond traditional paths and embrace limitless possibilities. In 2020, she was recognized as an Honorary Author for her work editing and compiling âA New Journey: Hmong College Student Experiencesâ, amplifying the voices of Hmong college students in higher education. Maycee's passion extends to mentoring and aiding young women in discovering their own self-confidence, where she later earned the Women of Courage and Vision Award from Minnesota State University's President's Commission on the Status of Women multiple times.
Mayceeâs work in Student Affairs later expanded to the UMN College of Pharmacy, where she encouraged future healthcare professionals to lead with empathy and compassion. This experience later influenced her to create Alter Ego Athletics, a business focusing on womenâs health. Where she empowers women through a holistic approach to health and fitnessâfocusing on mind, body, and soul. Inspired by her own strength journey, she integrates physical training with identity work, helping women build confidence, resilience, and navigating self-awareness.
Beyond fitness, building a business, and inspiring others, Maycee is deeply committed to mentorship and education. As a longtime Page Scholar from the Page Education Foundation, she advocates for students of color acknowledging barriers that may prevent them from achieving their dreams and actively gives back through community involvement and women empowerment.
