This episode promises an inspiring journey with Coral Chung, the founder and CEO of SENREVE, a coveted handbag brand. Coral, a Chinese immigrant, navigates us through her experience of embracing new cultures, the struggles of learning a new language, and the inspiring journey of her family's pursuit of the American Dream. Her bicultural upbringing lends her a unique perspective that has shaped her risk-taking profile, resilience, and the trajectory of her handbag company, Senreve.  Coral's captivating anecdotes take us through her path to entrepreneurship, deeply rooted in her parents' ventures. This included a pivotal dinner conversation, a challenging encounter that concluded with a beautiful gift, adding to her resilience.
