Anne Phung Nguyen

Anne Phung Nguyen, a Vietnamese American businesswoman, lives in Orange County California. I have a wonderful fiance named JP along with a very unhappy dad Henry. A majority of my followers know me through my Instagram @annephung, where I document my life - the highs, the lows and all in between. When I was just 1 year old My family and I moved from the United States to America. If not due to the dedication of my parents, I may not even be here today sharing the journey with you. Knowing I had an opportunity to have a brighter future, I aimed to make them proud and was a shrewd entrepreneur when it came to achievement. I believed my life would go one way or another: I'd graduate from college, land a corporate position, marry and begin a family. It was my idea of what it would take to be successful. However, life was not so keen on my ideas. The job I held in 2013 was something I dreaded. The status and wealth didn't bring me happiness. I felt I wasted my life to earn a paycheck. As I navigated my way through a different job, I realized that I was meant to be a personal trainer. I loved working out, I liked being around people, and I love helping others. In 2014, I established my company which will mark 7 years since my birthday in 2021. Very few Asian women have a job in the world of fashion. To be a leader in my field, and to provide high-quality coaching and enable others to achieve better health and happiness by establishing a life that is tailored to suit their requirements and help them achieve their objectives. In addition, I strive in empowering others to achieve their dreams and goals in order to achieve whatever they would like to accomplish. As my career was taking off, I suffered one of the biggest losses in my entire life to date- the passing of my mom. The eight years she fought struggle with Scleroderma. She is now resting in Heaven, and I always have her close to my heart. The lessons we learn from life can be hidden from us however they are extremely beneficial. My Mom's passing changed me in many ways, and I am convinced that my mom offered me a second chance at life through her passing. It was Tet/Lunar New Year Day when she died. The opportunity was there to embark on a new journey, and I got my second shot at an enjoyable and satisfying life. In the 30's I am more vibrant than I have ever. I am able to say that I am living my life now, rather than just existing as I did previously. In sharing the tale of my experiences, it's in the hope that others will be able to understand my feelings and thoughts. To know that they're not on their own. And that there is genuine love. Therapy is a necessity and it isn't uncommon. In the end, your health is your biggest wealth. There is only one chance to live. I wish you to be the best version of yourself.
