Getting clear on your values, knowing your true purpose and being in alignment can be difficult to do with so much noise in the world today. Today’s guest is Trang Cess Nguyen, and she knows all too well the importance of these things. In this episode, Trang shares her own personal journey to fulfilment, as well as how she now helps others do the same.
After almost a decade working as a registered Physiotherapist, running and strength coach, Trang went through a quarter-life 'awakening' in her mid-twenties that led to deep existential questioning about her life and its purpose. Through this challenging phase, Trang came to the perspective that the purpose of life was this: To live each day as her highest self in alignment with her heart's purpose and values. With that realisation, she made the decision to leave the health and sports industry to work with individuals at the deepest and most comprehensive level.
Through her coaching, Trang now guides individuals to fulfill their potential in the business or career that's aligned with their heart's purpose, so they can thrive at the highest level, be fulfilled till their last day, and create an impact on this world.
Trang does this because she believes that when enough individuals are thriving, then humanity will thrive, and when humanity thrives, the world can thrive for all forms of life, and future generations.
Trang loves to LIVE and strives to have the richest human experience possible. From scuba diving, motor-biking, skiing, hiking, camping, travelling, raving at music-festivals, hitting the dancefloor of clubs, watching Game of Thrones and cuddling with her two dogs (Obi the pug and Finn the cavoodle), she is certainly high on life!
We hope that Trang’s journey and the tools and resources she gives today on the podcast will help you gain clarity on your own purpose and values! If what she shares resonates with you in any way, we’d love to hear about it, so please send a DM, @authenticandbrave and @trangcessnguyen.
