“Vietnam isn’t becoming Western; it’s becoming modern—on its own terms.”
Cedric’s journey is one of the most unique and inspiring stories I’ve ever had on the podcast. This episode completely blew me away.

His perspective on Vietnam’s rapid development, cultural pride, and the future of this incredible country left me reflecting deeply.
It’s conversations like this that remind me why I started this podcast—to share stories that challenge perspectives and inspire listeners.
