For some business owners, crisis and adversity can trigger a paralysing panic. But for another type of business owner, adversity is a lesson that they do not want to waste. Do you know where you stand? Our next guest on The Make It Happen Show has overcome incredible adversities in her life to become one of Australia's most-celebrated entrepreneurs.
Pauline Nguyen is the Co-Founder of Red Lantern, the most-awarded Vietnamese restaurant in the world, best-selling author of 2 books, and has been recognised as one of Australia's top 50 female entrepreneurs. But before she found success, Pauline faced some incredible challenges: from escaping war-torn Vietnam, to living in a Thai refugee camp and settling in Australia, suffering abuse from her father, and working 100-hour weeks as a business owner, Pauline has not let herself fall victim to the circumstances life has thrown at her.
So we thought there'd be no one better to speak about how to empower and inspire ourselves in spite of the incredible challenges we've faced this year. Find out Pauline's secrets to success that she's learnt through the hardest moments of her life as well as how we can continue to pivot into the new year as a calm, inspired and resilient leader. Sit back and enjoy listening to Pauline's incredible lessons and journey.
