Coach James
Hi there! My name is James Nguyen, and my number one goal is to help you live your happiest and healthiest life possible.
A little about myself, I have the biggest passion for traveling. There is so much to see and experience in this big world! I’m also very active with sports and the outdoors. I enjoying learning new things, whether that’s a new language, skill sets, cooking recipes, and anything in between. Knowledge is power!
However, I’d have to say my second biggest passion would be acting. Being in front of cameras and an audience is exhilarating, and letting the artistic side of myself flourish is very liberating.
I believe coaching has been in my blood from the very start. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always had an inner drive to help others. Maybe it was because I grew up idolizing superheroes, or maybe it was because I had an older brother I looked up to who also wanted to help others as well as having a supportive family circle pushing me to be the best version I can be of myself.
Hey, maybe its all the above!
However, I wasn’t perfect. I struggled severely with weight fluctuations and mental negativity towards my own self worth. I was overweight as a youth, and I never truly was happy with myself and how I looked in the mirror. I didn’t even understand what body positivity was for the longest time. I grew up always comparing myself to other people because I didn’t have those perfect genetics like other trainers and athletes do.
But you know what? As time passed, one day I stopped feeling sorry for myself. I stopped bullying myself. I stopped sitting in that pit of sorrow and realized that I alone was responsible for my own actions. It took time, but after years of hard work, sweat, and dedication, I changed my life around! I know you can too.
I started my coaching journey in 2017, and in 2018 I achieved my Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science and my Personal Training certifications. I set forth in the health and wellness field in search of anyone who needed help going through the same struggles as I did. People who needed that extra push and guidance to also change their lives around. Throughout the years, I’ve helped hundreds of hard working professionals do a complete 180 with their lives.
I’ve helped young kids express who they are through health and fitness. I’ve helped athletes of all ages realize their true potential. I’ve helped the elderly continue to do the things they love to do so they don’t feel like they’re missing out on life. I’ve helped people with injuries rehab their pain and showed them that their passions aren’t coming to an end. I’ve helped individuals suffering from severe depression smile again after realizing their self worth. It’s all been overwhelming rewarding and I will strive to continue helping as many people as I can within this lifetime!
Every day is an opportunity to change and we just have to keep taking it one step at a time. If you are struggling with your own happiness all around and need someone you can relate and connect to, I’m your coach. We will succeed together, that’s my promise. Let's bring out the best version of you!
