The Power of The Only on Apple Podcasts

“He helped my parents see something in me that they were afraid to see.” – Vinh Giang

On this show, we explore Vinh’s journey to success and his lessons learned. We talk about how his family escaped Vietnam, what it was like growing up in Australia, and how he went from a timid Asian child to a star magician to mastering his communication skills and commanding large stages as a speaker.  He gives us his #1 communication tip to help you master your voice.

We also talk about the power of virtual, our Asian American and Asian Australian identities and definition of success.  I also share my journey of reinvention from a TV news anchor to an on-camera/communication coach and creating YOU, Amplified!®.

Vinh shares how a story of regret and one person shifted the trajectory of his life and enabled him to break through barriers and stereotypes. He reveals that when he was at the pinnacle of his career, it wasn’t actually the happiest time in his life and how he is now redefining success on his own terms while continuing to inspire and serve.

“Stop thinking that if I’m exploring my voice it is fake and phony. No, it is not. It is the most beautiful instrument.” – Vinh Giang
