When you're listening through this podcast, there's only going to be one word going through your head and that is: WOW.What this woman has accomplished given everything that's happened to her is nothing short of a miraculous triumph.As many of you know, Hanh owns and operates a massage therapy studio right here in town named Tough Love Massage. The name does not only accurately describe the types of massages she and her employees give, the name is also a metaphor for Hanh's life.  It's been tough with a lot of love.Hanh gives a great perspective on life when she tells about how her family moved from Vietnam to the United States (spoiler: they thought the whole process from beginning to end would only take a few weeks and it ended up taking 3 years).She developed a hard work ethic at an early age preparing meals for her massive family at just 10 years old.  Once Hanh arrived in the States, she carried that work ethic with her.  After settling in Kentucky temporarily, Hanh moved up to Boston.There's a dark part of this episode where Hanh breaks down the deep depression she fell into back in 2011.  Believe it or not, that depression is ultimately what led to her opening up Tough Love Massage in the first place.Anyone who has ever met Hanh knows she is no stranger to hard work and will do whatever it takes to not only succeed but to thrive!  Recently, Hanh just purchased a commercial building out in Worcester where she plans on opening Tough Love Massage 2!!  We could not be more excited or proud of this woman for starting a second location.  We'll send you all the support we can!Hanh, we can't begin to thank you enough for being so open, authentic, and straight up real through these 75 minutes of amazingness.  We are beyond grateful to have you in our community and to support you however we can.
