    Rising from the ashes to view how you see the world... Tory Archbold speaks with Pauline Nguyen

    Rising from the ashes to view how you see the world... Tory Archbold speaks with Pauline Nguyen

    Pauline Nguyen’s story is that of survival first. Escaping war-torn Vietnam as a toddler, Pauline eventually made it to Australian shores after a year in a Thai refugee camp. Having jumped from the frying pan, Pauline was thrust into the fire – going on to suffer tremendous physical and emotional abuse until she was a young woman.

    It’s this staggering adversity – rising from the ashes of trauma to become a leading entrepreneur, an award-winning author and an international key note speaker.

    Described by Huffington Post as, “The most grounded spiritual entrepreneur on the planet”, recognised as an original ‘Rare Bird’ – Australia’s top 50 Influential Female Entrepreneurs and included in Blackwell and Hobday’s global recognition of ‘200 Women Who Will Change the Way You See the World’, Pauline is nothing short of extraordinary and in today's Powerful Stories podcast host Tory Archbold asks Pauline to share how her WHY created her PURPOSE and how you can activate these insights into your own powerful life journey too.
