Pauline Nguyen

Pauline Nguyen is one of Australia’s most impactful speakers and developmental coaches. Combining science and spirituality, she teaches others how to design the life of their dreams, marrying material success with deep fulfillment and a great sense of play.

Nguyen’s story is that of survival first. Escaping war-torn Vietnam as a toddler, she eventually made it to Australian shores after a year in a Thai refugee camp. Having jumped from the frying pan, Nguyen 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 Nguyen now refers to as her training – rising from the ashes of her trauma to become one of Australia’s most in-demand development coaches, a leading entrepreneur, an award-winning author and an international keynote speaker.

Described by Huffington Post as, “The most grounded spiritual entrepreneur on the planet”, recognized 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’, Nguyen is nothing short of extraordinary. Unable to be pigeon holed, the mother of two speaks and teaches from direct experience with a unique process to self-mastery, which has helped heal and uplevel thousands of her followers. Known for combining science with spirituality, she also co-founded the world’s most-awarded Vietnamese restaurant, Red Lantern.

Using a range of modern modalities, combined with her energetic gifts and Eastern mysticism, Nguyen’s skill as a group facilitator and one-on-one mentor -- both live and online -- marks her as one of Australia’s most prominent business and personal development coaches. She combines Cognitive Behavior Therapy, modern day Shamanism, Meta Neuro Linguistic Programming, breath mastery, meditation and movement intelligence to hack her client’s biochemistry and promote healing in unprecedented ways. An acclaimed speaker and author of "The Way of the Spiritual Entrepreneur" and "Secrets of the Red Lantern," Nguyen has inspired thousands with her glittering stagecraft and electrifying presence.
