    From chaos to clarity: proven guidance and perspective for real growth // Fordham University x Zip Nguyen

    ❓How do we find clarity when life feels messy, uncertain, or “behind schedule”? ❓What’s the difference between what we want and what we truly need — and why does that matter so much for success? ❓How do we move from being “ghosted” to actually growing in our careers?   So many conversations about success skip over the hardest parts: rejection, silence, confusion, and the quiet pressure to “have it all figured out” — especially in your 20s.   In this episode, we dive straight into all of it 🎯   Not only will you hear real talk from CQO Zip Nguyen on how she’s navigated these moments herself, but you’ll also hear raw, honest reflections from our Bloomers on what growth has really looked like for them.   No performance. No sugar-coating. Just grounded, proven guidance and perspectives that may help you rethink your journey and fuel your next step forward.   The full recording is now available for anyone who couldn’t attend or wants to revisit the conversation.   We’d love to hear what you’d like us to explore next in our Jan 17 live podcast event!

    Are you making these mistakes in networking? // Fordham University x Zip Nguyen

    It’s been a while since I last published a podcast episode on @bloomincrisis.  As I realized that time spent editing videos was taking away from my writing and other practices, I decided to shift my focus despite having a long backlog of recordings I’ve yet to revisit. However, after observing many students struggle with effective networking (most recently while hiring for our Business Intelligence internship position at BBC Studios), I felt compelled to edit and share this throwback episode that I recorded with students at Fordham University more than a year ago. In this episode, you'll learn: ❌ The biggest turn-off when it comes to networking ❌ Why you might not have found success in networking yet  ✅ How reframing networking in your mind can help you build meaningful relationships  ✅ Creative ways to leave a lasting positive impression on potential employers or hiring managers—plus real-life examples!  If this resonates with you and you’d like to dive deeper, I’ll be back at Fordham this Wednesday, March 5th, for another speaking event. Hope to see you there.  Good luck! 🍀  Shoutout to Shubh Mahtani and Santiago Ablaza for proactively arranging the event and hosting the podcast, Professor Kate Kennon for her help with organizing, and all the students from Fordham University and others who attended and engaged in the session.  Bloom in Crisis is the embodiment of hope, born from the belief that moments of uncertainty and hardship can become clarity, compassion, and intentional growth 🌱   Having experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating difficult times alone, Zip Nguyen began blogging when the pandemic struck in 2020, later expanding her reflections through a podcast and YouTube channel.

    How to find out what job you want to have // Fordham University x Zip Nguyen & Zachary Adelmann

    ❓ "At what point in your academic or post-academic career did you figure out the specific field you wanted to pursue or the job you wanted to have?" 💡 If you're unsure about what job to apply for, which direction to take in your career, or even what major to study in school, make sure to watch our new YouTube video! This June marks the one-year anniversary since my dear partner-in-crime at work, Zachary Adelmann, joined my team 🎉 Soo... I wanted to make him blush a little by shining a spotlight on this rare, wonderful young man 😎  From starting fresh in the media industry just a year ago to now sharing his insights and lessons learned with others, Zachary's sincerity and eagerness to grow make me feel lucky to be his manager. Instead of being a barrier, our differences are what make it work so well between us, and I truly can’t express enough how much I appreciate having Zachary on my team!  Here’s a bit of candid sharing combined with some fun facts about us that I hope will help alleviate some of the stress if you’re trying to find the right job or career path for yourself. Have a watch, and good luck!  🍀 Special thanks to Zachary Adelmann for sharing your experience and Isabella Espinosa for asking your question.

    Want to pursue the American Dream? Wise advice from my Dad // Fordham University x Zip Nguyen

    Among the many stories I’ve shared, this is probably the one that comes up most often, not only among international students but also among American students at Fordham University. I’ve been told repeatedly how recalling this story empowers them in their journey to build security in foreign countries and apply for jobs. I decided to take a break from YouTube for a while because I missed writing and making time for quiet contemplation. But on this Father’s Day, I want to do something different... 🙆🏻‍♀️ My dad doesn’t speak English and he’s not even on social media, but I feel compelled to share his wisdom with the world, knowing his teachings have positively impacted my journey and deeply shaped who I am today ✨ While I don’t talk about it often, it’s been a long journey for me to grow into not only admitting but also appreciating my dad’s influence on me. Here is one of his pieces of advice that has changed my perspective entirely, liberating my mentality like no other throughout my journey in the US.

    This mindset will help you embrace adversity and find success // Fordham University x Zip Nguyen

    "Your quarterlife crisis is your greatest asset." This is what I said to a student when I was asked about my mantra after we wrapped up the meeting. If you have been following my blog since I started it, you'll know that I still haven't changed my mantra until now. Not because I'm fixated on it, but rather, it's because the older I get, the more I find it true and become even more grateful for everything I've been through. I debated with myself many times whether I should share this video or not for lots of reasons—one of them is because we recorded it back in August 2023 when I still thought Bloom in Crisis was a brand or a podcast (I later realized that it's not, but oh well, I didn't know what I didn't know! 🤪) It might seem trivial to many, but it was a huge shift for me once I internalized the essence of bloom in crisis myself. Regardless, I still decided to publish it because I do believe this conversation about embracing pain and suffering is important to share, and I want to embrace my authentic journey, too 🙃 I hope that my sharing is helpful for you to reflect on your own journey in helping both yourself and others to build resilience and find success. Good luck! 🍀 Special thanks to Professor Kate Shea Kennon, Ed.D and Professor Linda Luca for organizing the event, and all the student attendees from Fordham Gabelli School of Business for engaging in the session 💖 [Watch on YouTube] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTad3Ww2xXY Bloom in Crisis is the embodiment of hope, born from the belief that moments of uncertainty and hardship can become clarity, compassion, and intentional growth 🌱   Having experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating difficult times alone, Zip Nguyen began blogging when the pandemic struck in 2020, later expanding her reflections through a podcast and YouTube channel.

    What’s more important than speaking perfect English? // Fordham University x Zip Nguyen

    One of the facts about me that often surprises others is my journey to the US. I might somehow give off the vibe that I always know what I'm doing, but unlike what most people assume, I really struggled with school and had no clue what I wanted when I was in Vietnam 🥲 The decision to come to the US and study abroad was one of those that I made in the blink of an eye without knowing what would come next, not even thinking about whether I would like it or want to stay here long term 😬 Adversity is something I've been used to since my early years, but learning to embrace it and constantly turning it into opportunity is probably one of the most enjoyable mental exercises and surprisingly fulfilling experiences in my journey ✨ I hope that my sharing is helpful for you to reflect on the potential of creating opportunities from your own challenges. Good luck! 🍀 🌟 Shoutout to Shubh Mahtani and Santiago Ablaza for proactively arranging the event and hosting the podcast, Professor Kate Kennon for her help with organizing, and all the students from Fordham University and others who attended and engaged in the session 🌟 👉 Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWTLouVKQbo&t=6s Bloom in Crisis is the embodiment of hope, born from the belief that moments of uncertainty and hardship can become clarity, compassion, and intentional growth 🌱   Having experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating difficult times alone, Zip Nguyen began blogging when the pandemic struck in 2020, later expanding her reflections through a podcast and YouTube channel.
