A Dialogue on Sustainable Living and Inner Wellness
Throughout the workshop, a series of heartfelt conversations unfolded with insights from guest speakers including:
- Entrepreneur Lê Anh Thơ
- Dermatologist Dr. Nguyễn Thị Thùy Liên
- Entrepreneur and Swiss-based vlogger Hoàng Thị Quỳnh Anh, CEO of Anhvital Switzerland
- Jérôme Logre, International Sales Director of Phyt’s
Together, they shared perspectives on how individuals and businesses alike can contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle—both through mindset shifts and tangible action.
Dermatologist Dr. Nguyễn Thị Thùy Liên
Responding to host Liêu Hà Trinh’s opening question: “How do we recognise signs of stress and maintain our inner radiance, especially amidst the year-end rush?”—Dr. Thùy Liên offered a specialist’s insight: “Our skin is the most honest reflection of our health and emotions. Prolonged stress often manifests as dullness, breakouts, or fatigue in the skin. Today’s beauty philosophy is no longer about clinging to youth but rather embracing a journey of natural self-care—becoming the best version of ourselves at every life stage. This can be achieved by using gentle products, maintaining a healthy diet, and ensuring quality sleep”.
Mr. Jérôme Logre, International Sales Director of Phyt’s
Sharing his personal routine, Jérôme Logre explained: “I focus on caring for the body, mind, and spirit through an organic diet, regular exercise, and a positive mental outlook. For me, that’s the key to sustainable balance”.
Entrepreneur Lê Anh Thơ
In agreement, Lê Anh Thơ added: “Mind–body–spirit is a three-legged stool. It provides the foundation for strength and clarity in work and leadership. I make time to exercise for a healthy body and to stay in shape. Mentally, I choose to absorb only positive information. When those two are aligned, clarity of mind follows”.
Shifting Mindsets for a Greener Future
Entrepreneur and Swiss-based vlogger Hoàng Thị Quỳnh Anh, CEO of Anhvital Switzerland
Broadening the discussion to sustainable business practices, Hoàng Thị Quỳnh Anh shared: “Beyond the trend of ‘eating well and dressing well’, society is now moving toward ‘eating clean and dressing clean’. Businesses are becoming more aware of the need to offer organic products—for the benefit of both the planet and people”.
However, Lê Anh Thơ also highlighted the challenges of committing to sustainability: “The cost of producing items from recycled materials is often three to five times higher. It’s a big investment for both individuals and enterprises. Still, I’ve noticed people are gradually embracing organic cosmetics, food, and waste-reducing practices as part of a green lifestyle”.
Dr. Thùy Liên further weighed in on skincare trends: “Natural beauty is never accidental. While interventions like Botox or HA can offer instant results, natural methods are far more sustainable. Instead of strong ingredients like retinol, we can opt for nature-based products from reputable dermo-cosmetic brands. It’s all about consistent, long-term care”.
From a brand perspective, Jérôme Logre addressed how Phyt’s is adapting to the Vietnamese market: “Vietnam is a highly promising market. However, Phyt’s was originally developed for European consumers. My team and I have been working to create new formulas better suited to Asian skin—such as adding organic brightening ingredients derived from natural sources”.
Terrarium Making: A Mindful Connection with Nature
Before concluding, participants took part in a unique DIY Terrarium session, crafting miniature “green worlds” of their own under expert guidance. The step-by-step process offered not only a calming creative outlet but also served as a symbolic reconnection with nature and inner peace.
Through these inspiring conversations and interactive experiences, Inner Radiance encouraged every participant to embark on their own journey toward sustainable harmony where beauty, wellbeing, and the environment align. It marked a meaningful step forward in fostering a green-minded community and affirming the essential role of holistic health in enhancing life’s quality.
