LIVE INSPIRED and IN SPIRIT EVERY DAY with Pauline Nguyen
EMPOWERED, ABANDONED to ABUNDANT
04/29/24 • 62 min
Pauline Nguyen’s story is that of survival first. Escaping war-torn Vietnam as a toddler, Pauline eventually made it to Australian shores after a year in a Thai refugee camp. Having jumped from the frying pan, Pauline 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 Pauline now refers to as her training – rising from the ashes of her trauma to become one of Australia’s most sought-after development coaches, a leading entrepreneur, an award-winning author, and an international keynote speaker. Pauline’s unique life experiences have given her a distinctive insight into the minds of individuals and businesses alike, allowing her to pass on the invaluable skills of self-mastery, resilience and perseverance.
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’, Pauline is nothing short of extraordinary. Pauline co-founded the world’s most awarded Vietnamese restaurant, Red Lantern and in 2012 won The Telstra Business Award for medium business. Pauline is the author of The Way of Spiritual Entrepreneur and Secrets of the Red Lantern, both critically acclaimed worldwide, appearing on numerous bestseller lists. Pauline speaks and teaches from direct experience with a unique, dramatic cadence that literally has the audience hanging on every word.

Rejection is Redirection: My Short, Eye-Opening Journey as a Substitute Teacher
EMPOWERED, ABANDONED to ABUNDANT
04/14/25 • 7 min
My heart-led decision to try teaching.
- I had a childhood dream of becoming a teacher
- I was pursuing a teaching degree in 2011 but got sick
- The opportunity in Florida reignited that dream
The process of becoming a substitute teacher.
- Fingerprints, training, prep
- Felt proud to step into the role
- First assignment: middle school with behavioral students
How I went above and beyond.
- Learned names, connected with students
- Made the effort to build trust and create a calm environment
- Kids even noticed my effort and care
The misinterpretation and the unexpected outcome.
- Shared my podcast with a few students out of inspiration
- Asked for help in a class of 22 energetic first graders
- Feedback that wasn’t reflective of my actual performance
- Suddenly removed without fair process or understanding
How I processed the loss.
- Felt Hurt, confused, and disappointed
- Realized I didn’t do anything “wrong,” just was agains the policy of the contracting company
- Understanding that my gifts may be meant for a different classroom—the digital one, the podcast, my coaching, my community
The deeper wisdom.
- “Rejection is redirection” and “rejection is protection”
- Maybe getting sick was my body saying “pause”
- Maybe this isn't my final destination—just a stepping stone
- I am a teacher—just not in the traditional sense
- I empower others every day through my coaching, podcast, & content
If this episode resonates with you—if you’ve ever been misunderstood, rejected, or misjudged—know this: you are not alone. Your path is unfolding in divine timing. Keep showing up! Keep shining! And trust that every “no” is leading you to your aligned "YES" .And if you’re ready to step fully into your purpose and rewrite the narrative of your life, I invite you to explore my Dream Builder Coaching Program. Let’s create the life you know you’re meant for.
