Boy Eats World – RAFFLES CHATS WITH AUTHOR, ENTREPRENEUR AND INTERNATIONAL SPEAKER, PAULINE NGUYEN

“Raffles has been privileged to interview some exciting people. But I don’t even know where to begin in introducing the incredible force of nature that is Pauline Nguyen. One of Australia’s most successful entrepreneurs, Pauline’s accomplishments are even more inspirational considering her less than fortunate beginnings. Pauline Nguyen and her family escaped Vietnam in 1977 via boat and were forced to spend a year in a Thai refugee camp, before eventually settling in Cabramatta in Sydney’s outer west. Her unique life experiences all contributed to a personal store of strength, courage, wisdom and positivity that have seen her become not only become successful in business, but as a sought-after life coach, mentor, and inspirational and transformational speaker. Along with her brother, Luke, and partner, Mark Jensen, Pauline is the owner and co-founder of Red Lantern, one of the world’s most highly acclaimed Vietnamese restaurants. She has also authored numerous bestsellers, including the incredible award-winning Secrets of The Red Lantern, has won over audiences and critics in theatre performances, and is an ambassador for WorldVentures’ DreamTrips, a global Travel Membership Company offering curated holiday experiences that share her own vision of living with meaningful purpose. While balancing all of this with a ninja-like dexterity that leaves me in awe, and a calm that is contagious, Pauline Nguyen is raising two delightful children who are destined to shine as bright as their amazing mother…”
