Yasmin Nguyen has a joyful story to tell. He does it as an author, adventurer, facilitator, filmmaker, joy ambassador, photographer, speaker, and world changer. Yasmin is the founder of the Joyful Living Project. He created the Joyful Living Project to ignite positive change and remind us of all the good around us. He's also starting a podcast to help others activate joy in their lives. In this interview, Yasmin talks about some of the challenges he has faced, including fleeing communist Vietnam, being rescued at sea, growing up as an immigrant in America, his experience with corporate life, entrepreneurship, deep depression, and burnout. Yasmin has come up with 7 principles of joyful living that worked for him and is excited to share them. To inspire and reach more Joy Ambassadors, he's writing a book on his life journey and challenges. Some years ago, Yasmin found a deeper calling that led him to pack up his car to drive across America on an 18-month journey to discover, document, and share stories of real people, beautiful places, and heart-opening experiences that bring us joy. In 2022, he and his team will launch a new concept called "The Joy Gym" to reconnect millions of people every day as "Joy Makers" to practice simple habits that activate joy, strengthen their hearts and minds, and create a better world.
