Anne Phung Nguyen

Anne Phung Nguyen. I am an American Vietnamese business owner living in the city of Orange California. With my wonderful partner JP and the happy-go lucky dad Henry. Most people know me through my Instagram @annephung. I record my personal life: the highs, the lows and everything inbetween. My parents took me to America in 1990, when I was just one-and-a half. I would not be able to share my story with you today without my parents' efforts to work hard and make sacrifices. So that they could give their children an opportunity to live a prospering future, I aimed on achieving success and put in the effort in order to reach it. I had a plan to attend school, graduate and get an excellent job. Then I wanted a wife and kids. My life that I thought I would have was not what it turned out. It was 2013 when I discovered that I didn't like working at my corporate job. Money and status did inspire me. I believed that I was just wasting my time in exchange for an income. When I began to navigate my way towards a new direction in my career, I found that I was supposed to work as personal trainer. I loved working out, I liked being around people and I loved helping others. My business started in 2014, and I'll be celebrating 7 years of success in 2021. In the field of coaching it is not a lot of Asian females. As a coach I'm determined to make a difference by providing quality training to aid others to become healthier and happier. In addition, I wish for everyone to be able to pursue their goals and be able to achieve whatever it is they wish for throughout their lives. When my professional career began to take off, I had the biggest loss in my life - my mom's death. The battle she fought for eight years with the disease is over and she rests in Heaven. She will always remain in my thoughts and brain. Even if you can't see it initially, the universe can be a bit elusive in giving us what we really need. Her passing has changed my life in a variety of ways. I truly believe that her death gave me the opportunity to begin a new chapter. It was the Tet/Lunar New Year Day when she passed away. It was her time to start a new chapter in her life as I was given the chance to lead a fulfilling and happy life. What I'm experiencing now as I enter my 30s, is a sense of awe and vitality. It's as if I am truly living, instead of just being. My story is made available to me so that I may share with you my experiences and thoughts. This will help you realize that you're not on your own. You are capable of achieving anything you want in your life. Therapy is necessary and is normal. Health is the best riches. I pray that you live your life to the fullest and that you die without regrets as death is the sole thing promised to the people in our lives.
