"You don't have to ever settle until you find your forever dream guy!"
Welcome to Lipsticks N Lady Bits podcast with Tien Promlap!
Hi there - My name is Tien Nguyen Promlap (@fromfobtofab) and I am married to my forever hubby @jpromlap and we live in a suburban house outside of LA with our fur baby Mochi.
But before I got this dreamy life, I was the most awkward, FOB-by, & introverted teenager you could have met…
I arrived to America in 2003 at the age of 12. If you saw me then, you would have not recognized me:
I spoke zero English
I was dark…a lot darker
I had bushy/untamed eyebrows
I rocked a thick lady-tache on my upper lip (although she came back to visit during the pandemic when my salon closed!)
I was a shy person - never volunteered in class, did not talk to strangers or boys, went to school and back home, etc..At the peak of my teens, not only was I trying super hard to fit in in a foreign land and learn English (my American cousins making fun of me didn't help), I was also fighting my boy-crushes…
It was rough - always have crushes on boys but did not have the courage to talk to them or when I did, I was often rejected…
And then fast forward to the end of my undergrad and the start of pharmacy school…
I decided that I was done feeling sorry for myself because I realized that I am just as good as anyone who were born here in the States -
I should be able to date any guy I want and be with whoever I wanted to be with.
From an awkward and introverted teenager who got a last-minute prom-date because she felt pressured and thought that there was something wrong with her since no one asked her out…
…to being able to get up to any stranger at a busy bar, ask them to dance with her and be successful - because I finally realized that anyone would be lucky to dance with me.
I refused to settle and I turned the relationship table back to me instead.
Now I live happily ever after with my handsome husband in our forever home.
