HELLO FROM BLOOM IN CRISIS!

Globally connected, locally relevant, personally touched – Bloom in Crisis is a place to learn, share, and grow. It is where vulnerability is normalized, underrepresented voices are amplified, diversity is celebrated, honest advice and genuine support are given. We believe that no one should have to go through their crisis times alone nor navigate through life without accessible guidance.

 

Having struggled and gone through many crises by herself, Zip Nguyen started blogging when the pandemic hit in March 2020 and later on released Bloom in Crisis podcast in June 2021, with a mission to create a global community where everyone from different cultures, generations, and backgrounds overcome tough times together, learn and uplift each other through the power of authentic storytelling, cross-learning, and sharing pragmatic advice. After receiving so much love and support from her audiences, Zip launched bloomincrisis.com, a weblog, in April 2022 to provide another outlet for stories to be told and to further expand the community. Together, we inspire each other to #bloomincrisis.

 

While the main language of both the weblog and the podcast is English, Zip also wants to use her platforms to bring Vietnamese voices and conversations to the world while connecting with the Vietnamese community, so there are also content written and episodes spoken in Vietnamese, Zip's native language.

WHY BLOOM IN CRISIS?

  • Tried and trusted.

  • Founded during a global pandemic by a twenty-something Vietnamese woman who came to the U.S. as an international student and has been working there since. Her perspective has been continuously shaped by her experience from the East to the West and people from different walks of life that she comes across along the way.  

  • Cuts through the noises with curated content on specific topics of concern, particularly for Millennials and Gen Zs, to provide a calming sensation and help them navigate through their crises.

  • Each topic discussed starts with a question instead of jumping right to the conclusion.

  • Amplifies under-represented voices, including not only people of different races but also embraces the beauty of accents and English is not the first language.

  • Allows our audiences to feel seen and heard by offering our platforms for them to authentically share their stories, thoughts, questions, and/or concerns, without any judgment.

  • A trusted community of people, particularly Millennials and Gen Zs, who are going through difficult times and/or trying to navigate through life, connecting through shared experiences.

  • A compassionate, inclusive network of international career professionals who genuinely want to give back and help others. 

  • Diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just "seen" but also "felt" here.

  • Bi-lingual – English and Vietnamese – with English being the main language.

  • Globally connected, locally relevant, personally touched. Together, we inspire each other to #bloomincrisis.
