loan rhymes with mom because I’m Vietnamese 🤟

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

After 36 years, I will admit that this had been the most difficult one for me. I let down a lot of people, incredible people. Everything we worked so hard to build these last 11 years is just gone. I was lost. Each day was a reminder of my failure to those who believed and trusted in me. It felt like I was living in a nightmare that should have been too terrible to be true. Then Cici said, “You know…I had the time of my life chasing our dreams together, and that’s good enough for me!”. So now I’m back, from outer space. I will survive.

1, 2, 3, DZO! 🍻🇻🇳

This piece means a lot to me. In the days leading up to opening Pho Bar, I watched my friends and family come together and do whatever it took to help us get these doors open. Cooking, cleaning, building, carrying, painting, pouring drinks, so many hands helped build this place.

Annie @artbynuggs was inspired by what she saw and turned it into this.

She painted this mural after hours, 12 hours a night for 8 nights straight, capturing pieces of our family and the people around us. Nola holding her ice cream, @kerenswan and her friends cheering, my boys sharing food, bowls of pho being passed down, drinks being raised, and hands everywhere. That was my favorite part.

All the hands that helped build Pho Bar are now the same hands that get to sit down, eat, drink, laugh and enjoy what we built together. From helping hands to hands around the table. ❤️

Một, hai, ba… DZO! 🍻

Thank you, Annie, for putting our story on the wall 🇻🇳🫶

Growing up I always felt in my heart I was born to do something special. Something big.

Humble beginnings from a broken home, going through multiple foster homes with my older sister, homeless multiple times as an adult living from couch to couch, living out of my car during cold winters. With just a penny and a dream. I never complained not once.

Never lost faith in God and never lost faith in myself.

The only life skill I acquired before entrepreneurship and sales was how to physically break another man from my coaches @mcelroybjj and @pandy55amg and an unreal work ethic acquired from working for @loanthemom at NOCS for 5+ years

Looked around me and realized that no one was coming to save me.

When I got into sales it was hard at first but kept the same life motto of “figure it out” I never quit no matter how hard it was at first.

Sales is the equalizer, no matter the background, race, sex, or experience it will change your life

Mentally, Physically, and Spiritually excelling

Jobs not finished, still have a long way up this mountain but thank God it’s not living out of the power house gym bathroom.

Thank you to my brothers and mentors for the relentless pour of life

Remember success rejects all first time applicants, ask yourself how many times are you willing to knock on that door until it opens for you.

DM me if you’re looking for an opportunity to make a difference not only for yourself but for everyone who wants to see you win and lose.

I’ll be home soon mama your boy is working

🦞ORLANDO GRAND RE-OPENING OG CRAWFISH SEAFOOD BOIL SPOT IS BACK🦐

Follow me, @katelynxoxo for more Orlando food.

YES! You heard that right Orlando - @nocswest has finally re-opened on West Colonial Drive after they had a fire 2 years ago. They’re at a new address that I have listed below. They have been around since 2007 and I have been coming to them since I moved to Orlando in 2018.

I know I have posted many spots like this in the past which are also great but NOCS is top fricken tier guys. Their sauce is honestly the BEST, i mix both of the cajun & the garlic one and it’s spicy in the best way. I could eat here every day if I had the time and money😂. I may try to stop by again this weekend because I can’t get enough of @smiley_cooking ‘s food.

I didn’t keep my receipt(not h osted!!!) but I think I spent around $55 or less and this could feed 2 people EASY!
📍7256 West Colonial Drive
Orlando, FL 32818
