Welcome to the very first episode of "Bloom In Crisis". 

In this episode, Zip and I have a conversation about a topic that interests many people of our age: self-love. We discuss our own definition of self-love,  the main factors that contribute to self-love, as well as the relationship of self-love with self-hatred or self-indulgence. Through the sharing of our unique journeys to arrive at self-love, we want to use our experience to help you embrace your own journey of finding, understanding, and loving yourself.

We hope that you enjoy Episode 1: Self-Love and thank you for your support!

Co-hosts: Huong Nguyen & Zip Nguyen

Bloom in Crisis is the embodiment of hope—it is a belief, a practice, a way of life that empowers you to skillfully regulate emotions, build spiritual resilience, enhance self-awareness, unleash the potential of your mind, foster a grateful heart, cultivate joy, nurture positive energy, promote inner peace, grow self-compassion and compassion for others, embrace the present moment, derive wisdom from introspection, transform pain into grace, recognize positive possibilities even in adversity, and actively shape your narrative, ultimately leading to a happy and fulfilled life (with a touch of style).

​​Having experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating difficult times alone, Zip Nguyen began blogging when the pandemic struck in 2020, later expanding her efforts by launching a podcast and YouTube channel. Her unique style weaves spirituality, practicality, and beauty into a compelling tapestry. Driven by a profound desire to help others also bloom in crisis, Zip’s refreshing perspective, inventive techniques, and authentic storytelling spark deep reflection, cultivate heightened intuition, foster healing, expand consciousness, and nurture harmonious alignment between life decisions and the soul.
