Anne Phung Nguyen

Anne Phung Nguyen is my name. I'm Vietnamese American Entrepreneur living in Orange County California. My incredible husband JP, and my happy-go-lucky Dad Henry are also part of our extended family. The majority of people have come across me through my Instagram account @annephung, where I write about my experiences- my highs, lows and all in between. When I was in 1990, I moved to America along with my parents and brother at the age of one and half. Without my parents' devotion to dedication and hard work, I probably wouldn't even be with you sharing my story. My parents inspired me and I worked to be prosperous. There was a specific plan for me for my life: college graduate land a corporate job, get married, buy the house, and then have kids. I believed that this was the definition of success. However, however, life has other plans to demonstrate what it meant to be successful. It was 2013 when I discovered that I didn't like going to work at my corporate job. Money and status did not excite me. I felt like I was just wasting my time in exchange for a paycheck. The year 2013 was when I realized that my passion was fitness. I also enjoyed having fun and being able to assist other people. In the process of pursuing this direction change in my life, I discovered personal training. My business was founded in the year 2014. It is my seven-year anniversary in this calendar year. As a Asian female working in the field, there are very many of us. My goal in this industry is to help create a durable and healthy lifestyle that can meet the demands of my customers. Additionally, I want to encourage people to pursue their desires and accomplish whatever they would like to in life. While my professional life was taking off, I was struck by the most devastating loss in my life to datein the death of my Mom. After an eight-year struggle with Scleroderma, she is at peace on Heaven. I am forever grateful to her and always keep her in my thoughts and my heart. The universe has a way with giving us precisely what we require, even if we are unable to comprehend the lesson in the time. My Mom's passing changed me in so many ways and I believe my mom gave me a second chance at life through her passing. She died in the morning of Tet/Lunar New Year Day. The day was her chance to start her new journey. I was given a second opportunity to live the life of a fulfilled and happy. The thing I'm feeling now at the age of 30 is a sense of vitality and awareness. It feels like I'm truly living instead of just being. The purpose of telling my story is to let you know that, you are not alone. I hope that you feel that love is real and that a therapy session can be regular. Health is your greatest asset. I wish you to live your life to the fullest and to die with no regrets because death is the only thing promised to us in our life.
