About the Women Who RISE Speaker Series
Women Who RISE is a meetup and speaker series built to spotlight women whose stories, leadership, and community impact are worth hearing. Each gathering centers on real conversation rather than a scripted presentation, giving attendees a genuine look at the people behind the accomplishments.
The series is intentionally informal. Instead of a podium and a slide deck, RISE creates a setting where a featured guest can speak openly about her path, and where the audience can ask the questions they actually care about. That format tends to produce honest, useful takeaways that a polished keynote often leaves out.
RISE also puts weight on community. These events double as networking opportunities for local women in business, offering a chance to build relationships in a supportive environment. Refreshments, conversation, and a welcoming tone are all part of the experience, and they are a big reason the series has developed a loyal following.
Meet Anh Phoong, Founder of Phoong Law
This month, Women Who RISE features Anh Phoong, a California personal injury attorney and the founder of Phoong Law. She is a business owner who has built a highly visible brand while continuing to advocate for injured clients across California.
Anh Phoong’s work sits at the intersection of law and leadership. As the founder of a personal injury firm, she has guided a practice that helps people navigate some of the hardest moments of their lives, including car and truck collisions, motorcycle and bicycle crashes, pedestrian injuries, slip and fall claims, dog bites, and wrongful death matters. Running that kind of practice requires both legal skill and the discipline it takes to grow and sustain a business.
What makes her a compelling speaker for this series is that visibility. Building a recognizable brand in a competitive field is not accidental. It reflects years of decisions, setbacks, and course corrections, and that is exactly the kind of experience the RISE audience shows up to learn from.
A Candid Conversation on Leadership and Resilience
The centerpiece of the evening is an interview-style discussion that traces Anh Phoong’s journey as a business owner and leader. This will not be a formal lecture. It is a chance to hear the person behind the success in her own words.
The conversation is expected to cover the experiences that shaped her, the challenges she has faced along the way, and the lessons she has learned while building her business. Growth rarely follows a straight line, and honest reflection on the harder chapters is often where the most practical insight lives.
Themes the Discussion Will Explore
Expect the talk to touch on several recurring themes that matter to anyone building something of their own:
- Leadership and the mindset shifts that come with responsibility for a team.
- Resilience and how to keep moving forward through growth and change.
- Business growth and the practical realities of scaling a professional practice.
- Lessons learned, including the missteps that turned into turning points.
Because the format is conversational, the direction can shift based on what the audience wants to explore. That flexibility is part of the appeal.
What Attendees Can Expect
Attendees can expect a relaxed, interactive evening rather than a one-way presentation. The core of the night is the candid interview with Anh Phoong, followed by time for the audience to engage directly.
A dedicated audience Q&A gives guests the opportunity to ask the questions that matter most to them, whether about leadership, business building, or navigating change. This is often where the most memorable exchanges happen, since the questions come straight from the room.
Beyond the conversation, the event offers meaningful networking with other local women in business. RISE is known for its supportive community setting, and there will be time to build relationships and connect with peers. Refreshments will be provided, keeping the atmosphere warm and welcoming throughout the evening.

Advocacy Rooted in the California Community
Anh Phoong’s leadership is closely tied to the everyday work of Phoong Law, a trusted California resource for people who have been hurt through no fault of their own. The firm represents accident and injury victims across the state in matters ranging from car, truck, motorcycle, and bicycle crashes to pedestrian and rideshare cases, slip and fall and premises claims, dog bites, brain and spinal injuries, burn injuries, wrongful death, and sexual assault and abuse cases.
That community focus is part of why events like this resonate. Advocacy for injured people and mentorship for other women in business come from the same place, a commitment to showing up for the community. In California, injury victims often face insurance companies, deadlines, and legal rules that are difficult to navigate alone, and having a knowledgeable advocate can make a real difference.
If you or someone you care about has been injured in California and you want to understand your options, Phoong Law offers a free consultation. You can reach the firm at 866-GOT-PAIN to talk through your specific situation with no pressure and no obligation.
