This is an incredible interview with 2 amazing speakers! I have been wanting to hear this man's story, as communication is at the top of my learning bucket list. Brilliantly done, thank you both and all the people behind the Futur Podcast❤
Thank you
In the era of the internet, WWIII, and AI, communication and human value judgements will be some of the most important skills.
“Don’t make a point without a story, don’t tell a story without a point” 👏🏽👏🏽
37:36 “It’s not studying the answer but studying the thinking behind the answer that reveals the real value.” Best takeaway from this interview!
The honesty and transparency between you both is priceless! Love this conversation.
Pls react to!!! Lol nice to know we watch the same stuff boss philip.
Ha ha I know. This is so funny. When I saw the guest on Instagram I didn’t like him either. It’s weird, there’s something about him, I don’t know. But good on him for this guys success. When Chris was so honest at the beginning I was like, it’s not just me 😂
Funny how Chris says he didn't like the sound of his voice. In addition to the insightful conversations, I look for these hour-long videos because of the zen tone of his voice. It's just the right kind of energy for these podcasts.
Thank you 🙏
EXACTLY ME TOOO
Same
I think that we don't always like the sound of our voice but our tribe gets to love them. That doesn't mean we can't improve our voice, only we should not try to copy and be like others. I used to think I should sound like Les Brown to be a serious public speaker, which is sadly not so. We are unique in our own way.
Hearing Vinh sharing his story about doing anything to learn to communicate with his son made me think about my own story. My son is autistic and was non verbal until the age of 4, is now 21 and can speak fluently 2 languages and learnt Spanish and German at school. I share this for any parents struggling with a child with learning difficulties, hire professional to speed up his learning abilities. There are things we can’t do by ourselves! Hire a therapist, a coach, a mentor and anyone that can help you! I became a coach to support people find their happiness and even calling!
How did I miss this for a whole year? The multiverse of personal development. Thank you UA-cam algorithm, you did it again!
I loved the personal stories in this episode, rather than an interview completely about strategy! I didn’t realize that the teaching component of my life is what makes my now career of being an Argentine Tango teacher so fulfilling. I completed premed but completely changed paths, and there is nothing more fulfilling to me than watching my students go from no dance experience to enjoying themselves on the dance floor! I feel like I am finally doing what I was meant to do 😌
I might be wrong, but they look alike...one looks like the Doppelganger of the other.😊. And they are very knowledgeable at the same time in what they do. We love you guys🙏🏿
Thank you Raymond
This was an Amazing conversation. I love how Chris actively listened and took notes then recap what was said then used his notes to ask out more in depth questions. Equally, Vinh's willingness to go deeper and share more. This was a beautiful meeting of the minds.
Vinh dedication to his son is heart warming for sure!
Thank you so much.
This was a brilliant talk, I have often struggled with verbal communication due to being autistic, I was 90% selectively non-verbal up until the age of 10. Vinh really is an excellent verbal communicator and has taught me so many invaluable tools and techniques to help improve my verbal communication. It has been a frustrating journey, especially when people don't take you serious due to the verbal barriers. But I have an excellent set of skills within my domain of expertise, and trying to translate into a verbal reality has been one of the biggest challenges. I am very grateful for all the resources Vinh has published online with regards to communication, they have been really helpful in helping me conquer my verbal communication skills. Thanks to Chris, Vinh, and the team, you folks are incredible 😍
Thank you so much
That’s fuckin awesome man
As a person with autism what would be your recommendation for parent of kids with autism to help with their communication? My daughter is autistic and non verbal. Im always wondering what is she thinking.
I think I'll carry forever within me the lessons I learned from this conversation. I'm so grateful for this channel
wow. Thank you Mel! Appreciate it
You two have literally changed my life and my business. I run a dog training business, nothing to do with design, but your info translates over. Thank You for your content. Without both of you I would have failed by now 100 times over. Most channels gloss over the real important things, or they are too vague to learn from, but you taught me what books to read, how to change my mindset, how to speak to potential clients..AND MOST IMPORTANT to not chase the clients that can't afford me. I used to go into sales with the mindset that I HAD to close every client and when I didn't I'd beat myself up over it. Now I realize there are people who you don't want to work with, and that's ok. There's people who don't wanna work with you, and that's ok. Without my business I wouldn't be able to work, as I have a back injury that caused me to be unemployable from my previous career. You helped me, help me not be homeless. I can't thank you enough.
Can I just say how grateful to have read this. I've always felt like Im the only one benefiting from these content. I have seen my life change over the 5 years of my career. Never realised it was thanks to these two... all along.
My two favourite teachers!!! This is unreal seeing you guys come together. Awesome podcast. Dropping this comment only 2.5 mins into watching but I know it's going to be gold!
Chris, I've followed your content for over 3 years now, and this is probably my favorite video I've seen of yours. Thank you both!
Thanks for bringing him. I've been waiting for both of you to have a conversation 😃 this is Gold
Two masters in one frame , absolutey amazing podcast.
Your two-way openness and transparency are precious. I adore this discussion.
This is a gold mine. Two of the best minds in the world. I loved every minute of your interactions and life nuggets. Thank you so much for sharing this.
This has me in tears…!! The motivation in the decisions to get knowledge. That’s something …!!
This is absolutely awesome. My daughter has ASD and I had the same breakdown. Brought me back to earth. Thanks for opening up.
I love how he's taking notes and coming up with good questions
The has been the collab I've been wanting to see for a very long time. For me personally, these are two male, Vietnamese, highly successful, masters in their fields, doing the things I love. Thanks for being great role models for me. You guys rock!
I'm halfway through now to this podcast, and my jaw is
lingering from smiling :D, IM NOT JUST LEARNING I am ENJOYING all of this, THANKS CHRIS AND ZEN FOR EXISTING, YOU BOTH ARE THE REASON WHY THE WORLD IS WORTH LIVING
one of the most honest inspirational educational podcasts on UA-cam that I have ever heard...
I learn so much from Chris, how good of a listener he is!
Thank you Chris!
I so needed this!! Thank you guys. Recently completely bombed my first paid speaking gig, and all of the feels you two describe is all still swirling within!! I was trying to figure out why now I am even more hungry to do this!! Thank you for being so open Vinh
Loved every bit of this interview!! The vulnerability, storytelling and connection between both of you took me through different emotions as I listened. Had tears in my eyes at some point. The conversation was so real!
Thank you so much for sharing the person behind the brand Vinh, it just deepened my respect for you. I try not to miss your Instagram videos, if I do, I catch up by watching multiples at a stretch.
Finally, the tip of mixing and posting old and new content and learning from them is such a priceless piece of info for me as a content creator!
Thank you Chris!
2 of my heroes in 1 video. Wow! This is crazy. Didn't see this coming until I watched the 3min teaser.
Absolutely adore how you've highlighted tips for English learners. As an ESL teacher, all your insights are a game-changer for me. 🙌 I can't wait to see another podcast with y'all!! Please!!
And so cool to see you ask for advice about your own speaking quality. The best teachers are always learning. SO inspirational and moving.
It was only a matter of time these two legends met. I having been following Vinh on Instagram past few months, I drops value bombs he drops. Love you both 😘
the greatest crossover of all time!!! Thank you for this Chris and Vinh!
Had to happen
Chris and Vinh, you are the bomb. Aaaaaaabsolutely enlightening! "Don't be so attached to who you are in the present that you don't give the future version of yourself a chance."
Re-creation, climbing new mountains, and always evolving. I have always felt a little “all over the place” because I love learning, and have so many interests… loved this conversation, and love having stumbled upon this channel. Top-shelf stuff.
This was a great interview! I had many light bulb moments. I especially loved what Vinh said: 'When you teach something, you deepen your knowledge in that craft.' I'm still on a journey to improve and refine my coaching skills. Thank you for this call 🙏
Oh man! Encyclopedia of Magic I still remember that channel. Learned so many tricks when I was in 7th grade. Learned the magic of showmanship through that channel. And then one day the channel was gone. So great to see you here, brings back memories.
Great interview. I love how Chris brought up a diff aspects of Vinh and dig things deeper than the story we have already heard from Vinh in other interviews or on social medias.
I can see Chris picked up the tip from Vinh straight away by inject the energy to the full sentence 😊
Chris does an exceptional job of asking the right questions based off the answers he receives. i have a new found respect for both of these men! excellent job.
I appreciate this conversation. For a few years I felt like I knew exactly who I was and what I wanted. turned 33 years old in April and was diagnosed with ADHD in march. After receiving help, I’m having a hard time figuring out who I am now, and what I want.
Vinh is really great to take people into another realm of emotion.
Hearing him speaks feels like he's taking you on a journey. Amazing 👌
Agreed
two legends in one frame . You guys changed my life ❤
Amazing. Thank you
Such an honest interview. I'm very happy to hear two grown men converse so openly and vulnerably. The information is priceless but the warmth i felt listening to this is worth even more. I just.. love it.
Appreciate it
Insightful and inspirational. 💖
This was the video I needed to watch to remind myself that life is a journey and to help remember my spark and to recognize where my spirit is at.
Thank you both so much for this wonderfully, magical collab 🪄 💕
One of the best interviews I've watched/heard. 🔥🔥🔥 I love Chris's interview style, generally speaking, but the combination of these two articulate, smart, wise entrepreneurs is just the bomb. Thank you both for your generosity, and Vihn's tips at the end (saying this as ESL teacher and business solopreneur).
Thank you 😊
Vinh respect++ man. I myself having some problems in my life and I think I need more time, more mental space to deal with so many problems . And then I listen your story and now I feel like dude Im playing my life in a easy mode, let's level up a little.
Loved this podcast, I'm gonna save it to watch again in future
Two of my favorite teachers on the planet together! Amazing! Thank you!
Thank you
not enough words to express how much I LOVE these two!! ugh!!! Such a gift!!!!!
Thank you
Appreciate the depth of the work Vinh committed to . . . theater, vocal training, hiring a mentor, taking personal responsibility! Good stuff, Chris! Well done. Super stoked, will be watching this again!
Thank you Erik!!
So much heart in this one. Wish both of you and your families so much peace and joy! 🙏
You were both funny while sharing your stories but also very emotional and I love that this channel is always so emotionally transparent. It's refreshing to listen to "design talks" that are not always just design. Super refreshing, thank you!
Thank you 🙏
OMG, I am going through the same thing that Chirs talks about when he states that he did not have a place to go to talk to people about design. for me it is security in a particular cloud platform. I moved from corp job to startup life where I am dabbling in other areas so I feel the pain of not finding similar people and finding "purpose(s)". Great interview.
I love how honest Vinh was. Thanks for sharing!
What a 'sitting on the edge of your seat' communication masterclass. Vinh Giang and his WHY, super powerful. Thanks Chris and your team for this wonderful Futur Podcast episode.
I absolutely loved this podcast. Agree that you guys are two amazing speakers, teachers, and communicators and there are so many life lessons we can learn from videos like these.
Thank you
This is the best podcast so far, i've ever heard and watched, Such a delight to se you both in one frame and have a conversation..
Thank you 🙏
This was truly a MASTERPIECE… thank you for the questions and the openness to share from a deep spiritual place. Loved it!
You guys are very inspiring. Thank you for sharing this time together.
I normally do not watch podcasts in their entirety, but not this one. Thank you for this experience! Both Vinh and Chris are amazing and so honest here.
You’re very welcome
This was a severely profound conversation! WoW! Words of Wisdom! THANK YOU! Ive listened to this over and over again! Blew my mind!
Wow, this is so deep and I am grateful for your collaboration! A reminder that we are constantly evolving and of the importance to recalibrate when we’re in these new seasons. Thank you, Chris and Vinh 🙏🏼 and Vinh, your transparency is gold, thank you for sharing some of the painfully beautiful moments of your journey.
This was very awesome. Love this and thank you for sharing!! Had to edit this, love how the conversation flows. Wow feel like I am listen to music!
Chris is the hero we don't deserve but the hero we NEED.
I’m here for ya
❤❤ two of my favourite teachers coming together is GOLD!! No, make that shine bright like a Diamond x2 💎💎 Thank you both for the personal shares and all the teaching. I loved the “collaboration is necessary because we all have a different perspective “ idea. ❤. Thank you Chris and Vinh for your amazing collaboration 🙏🙏
One of the BEST interviews and podcast on Futur!
This talk was beautiful. So much value from my two favorite teachers, but also very emotional & personal.
3 Tips on how to be a more Effective Communicator. 1:07:00
1. Record a 5 min video of you speaking, wait a day to review.
A) Listen only - qualities of your voice, what you like, what you don't like.
B) Just watch, turn the sound off, what do you like and dislike about how you move, how expressive you are, how your hands and body move.
C) Transcribe it, leave in all the none words and filler words, then highlight them.
2. Send 20 min video and transcription to ESL teacher - How can I improve my Grammer
3. Mindset - Change your behaviors, let go to your future self, grow and evolve.
4. Send 20 min video to Speak Pathologist
Thank you so much for this interview! I've definitely learnt a lot and can't wait to put them into practice
Thank you guys for this interview, your knowledge, tips and positive vibe. This episode was absolutely great. I hope there will be one day in my life when I will be able to thank you personally for such a usefull lessons that you are teaching me. Do you realize that you are changing peoples lives? So admirable.
such amazing and powerful stories, was really surpised but thankful how vulnerable and intimate vinh got here. Thanks for bringing him on, definitely one I'm going to rewatch and recommend to friends!
Podcast of a lifetime! ❤ Ever since i knew about Vinh, I’ve been wanting him on this channel, Chris. Thanks a lot for doing this. ❤️🔥
Glad you enjoy it!
Wow what an interview. Never expected them to open up so much.
Thank you Chris for all smart questions you asked
Love the authenticity of this interview, and all the candid discussions of growing up Asian
Beautiful conversation with life changing lessons. Thank you guys for being you and for helping us out in the ways that you can. You guys are truly inspiring! ❤
Dam man.. 2 heros of mine having a conversation. I love the internet for making stuff like this possible. It's so special to me that I get to watch this.
I love Vinh , one of the best communication teachers out there if not the best!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Incredible interview, this was just unexpected! My sister became Orthodox over 20 years ago. In my case, I pulled toward another direction. What matters is that we both built families with children with way different POV but we are happy.
I don’t want this video to end. Thanks for sharing!
Vinh's a legend!!! Looking forward to listening.
So timely! Definitely an inspiring start. Love the courage! Thank you for sharing.
Enjoying your channel for a while Chris, and an excellent episode. Thanks!
This was so lovely! So cool to see these true stories behind the successes
This is the most truest podcast that I have ever heard from both two asians who hustle hard and do the job. And this is the 4th time I have watched this because as an Asian that migrated overseas, I feel so touched and inspired with both of your story. Thank you so much.
Thank you
thank you for posting this interview!!
By listening to you guys I just realized that for a long time my camera was my identity.
I had to have it with me, because I could hide behind it.
By taking photos all the time, I didn't have to talk to people.
It made me become a great photographer → Honing the craft.
But my personality wasn't really developing. I was Daniel with the camera instead of simply "Daniel".
That is changing right now and God actually helps me become myself more and more without hiding behind anything.
Thank you for helping me realize this
A masterclass episode! Brilliant minds dropping gems! Thank you!
This was one of the most refreshing videos I’ve ever watched. No pretense, very informative.
Glad to hear
I loved this conversation so much. So glad Vinh felt comfortable enough to share so much and that Chris gave him the space to do that. Thank you!
Awesome podcast, I love Vinhs videos and binge watch them... Loved to see his journey and how much he has openly shared from heart. Great bravery to do that. Loved how he and his wife have worked it out great. Also the awesome friend who sat in the mud with you..
Glad you enjoyed it!
happy to watch all over again, and remember my happines when i saw you two together.... thanks
This is the best video I have seen on communication. Thanks for the honest conversations and practical tips.
so much knowledge packed in 1 hour. thank you vinh and chris for this beautiful conversation.
My pleasure
Legendary gems. Literally my favorite episode to date !
Being following Vinh for quite a while. Finally can hear him speak in The Futur. Thanks for the generous sharing!
Our pleasure!
13:16 I had my uncle who went on the path of "sanyasa", gave up everything he had and moved to the mountains.
In the eastern culture this is lesser rare than the western world.
I could see Chris holding it back and practiced the socratic way. :D
Lovely conversation in all.
A brilliant conversation! This has easily become one of my all-time favourite podcast episodes :) Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you
Wow ... This was just an amazing story about how life is giving you a chance (problem) and only you yourself can choose whether it is a good opportunity or disaster ❤ just love all of it, thank you for honesty
Thank you 🙏
The Ultimate Collab! Genius! A shift in the communication continum time shift!
THIS was the podcast (of every single INCREDIBLY quality Futur podcasts) that broke me open. I do not have words. Ugh. The pain of being and feeling invisible. I help people come out, and I have yet to. Fully.
Thank you for this video. It was quite special in many ways. The valuable lessons just by sharing his story and his openness about personal issues make this an outstanding video.
I can absolutely relate to the COVID part of this conversation. It was during covid I started paying more attention to thefutur, watched a lot of thefutur videos, and I was blown away by the wealth of knowledge that is just available online for free. It got to a point where I decided to set a timetable to watch the futur videos. There was a period I was waking up 3:00am everyday to go on UA-cam and make sure to watch at least a video or couple of videos for 1hour. This literally changed my life.
