Finding Your Voice: Speaking with Confidence & Impact with Trang Nova
Hello, everybody. And welcome to another episode of the show. I can't wait for you to listen to today's guest. We have Trang with us. Hello and welcome.
Trang: So delighted to be here and to have this chat with you.
Me too. I was just telling you before that I'm pretty sure you're my first Australian guest on the show, which is very exciting.
Trang: That is exciting!
So for people who might not know who you are yet, could you introduce yourself and tell us a little bit about the journey to who you are today?
Trang: I might take you right back to the start because something that you might not be able to tell by listening to my voice, because I've got a very Australian accent, as we talked about, is my parents are immigrants from Vietnam. They came from Vietnam to Australia, and I was born in Melbourne. Coming from war and poverty, my parents just wanted one thing for me: a secure job and a stable life when I grew up. Because of that, in high school, my career options were to become a doctor, a lawyer, or a disappointment. I was quite sporty, so I met them in the middle and became a physiotherapist.
After working as a physiotherapist, something happened one morning that changed the entire course of my career. I set out to go for a run, and when I stepped onto the sidewalk, I heard a crunch. I looked down and saw that I had stepped on a snail. Now, this wasn’t the first time that had happened, and I’m sure many of you have as well, but for some reason, that morning, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. It made me realize how every one of my decisions has a consequence, even the small ones.
That moment led me to reflect deeply on the impact I wanted to have in my life. Not long after, I transitioned into life and mindset coaching because I didn’t just want to help people as athletes—I wanted to help them comprehensively as humans. As I started using my voice to help others, I saw the incredible impact it had. I began receiving feedback like, “Trang, working with you has been the best decision” or “Trang, you changed my life.” That was so fulfilling for me, and it led me to step even further into my voice and purpose. Over time, my work was featured on platforms like TEDx and Medium, and I realized something crucial: we can be the most passionate visionaries in the world, but if we can’t effectively communicate our ideas, our impact will always be stunted.
That’s why I now focus on speaking and coaching others to speak with confidence, presence, and power. Because when more of us use our voices, we can lead powerful movements and create lasting change.
