Empowering Women to Lead with Confidence and  Resilience

We have the power to choose: a victim of circumstances or a creator of our journey

You’re here for a reason, you are a smart, conscious and committed woman.

You are at a crossroads, you are facing difficult situations:


  • Unexpected job change, sudden disruptions at work
  • Feeling unsafe or lack of confidence to express yourself
  • Experiencing other life changing events (war, conflict...)

You tried various ways to heal and uplift yourself, yet you still feel:


  • Emotionally overwhelmed, even powerless, or isolated
  • Struggling with your sense of identity
  • Stuck and uncertain about your life’s direction

No matter what challenges life throw your way, remember you are not alone. 

Join me on a journey of transformation. Together, we can explore how I can support you in navigating your particular challenge and reinventing yourself.

Hello, I’m Vien

I am dedicated to fostering positive change at both personal and societal levels. As the Founder and Coach at RiseWithVien, I am called to empower women in self-leadership and resilience, focusing on Women at crossroads, change- makers, entrepreneurs, mothers facing challenges. 

In 2008, I founded Towards Transparency (TT), the first Vietnamese non-profit anti-corruption agency. Over TT’s 13 years, I've been fortunate to lead a dedicated team to champion transparency and collaborate globally to address corruption issues facing Vietnam.

My life and career are a tale of many cities and cultures. Having lived in Vietnam, Russia, Australia, Lithuania, and now France has profoundly enriched my approach to women’s empowerment.

Women Leaders, Change markers

" Five months ago, I felt powerless and disconnected, overwhelmed by unexpected changes. Vien's coaching program helped me reconnect, rebuild my confidence, and rediscover my purpose. I really appreciated her sharp intuition, compassionate guidance, and adaptable approach.  Vien’s energy and inspiring story fuelled my journey. If you're ready to reclaim your confidence and find clarity, I can't recommend Vien enough—her coaching is truly life-changing!"
