Passionate about breaking barriers and living until she is 120 years old, Vicki founded <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jomeisfinefoods.com\/\">Jomeis Fine Foods<\/a> in 2002. It has since become a platform where people can access products that change their health for the better.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Through her brand and her One Body One Life Podcast, she shares powerful insights on using food as medicine to heal, prevent disease, and support the body\u2019s natural vitality.<\/p>\n<p>In this month\u2019s Wellness Expert Series, we spoke with Vicki about Wellbeing Intelligence or WeQ, The Intelligence of Living Well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10382\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/vicki-headshot-2-copy-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Wellness Expert Series Vicki Nguyen\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/vicki-headshot-2-copy-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/vicki-headshot-2-copy-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/vicki-headshot-2-copy-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/vicki-headshot-2-copy-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/vicki-headshot-2-copy.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Vicki Nguyen, Founder of Jomeis Fine Foods and One Body One Life Podcast<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor years, I have been inspired by my great aunt who lived well, until 108. She was surrounded by a loving family, had an active mind, read hundreds of books and even wrote a few of her own.\u00a0I have always felt deeply that it was absolutely\u00a0possible for me (and all) to live well until 120, and so for as long as I can remember, this it has been my personal mission!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When I lost two of my best friends to cancer at the age of 36 and 37, my desire to live until 120 was anchored in even deeper. It was on.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I dove headfirst into supplements, detoxing, biohacking, red light therapy, breathwork, hyperbaric oxygen, contrast showers, peptides, you name it. I tried until\u00a0I became fluent in the language of optimisation, and to this day, still have my daily non negotiables that keep me on track as well as following my \u201clongevity plan\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I realised I was living as if there was an insidious disease within me, whereby everything I was doing was to assist my body to be well, to\u00a0thrive, to optimise, to live longer, stronger, and ultimately healthier and happier for as long as possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is all about; How can I live to 120? How can my healthspan match my lifespan ? and How\u00a0can I experience life fully for all the years I\u2019m here?<\/p>\n<p>This is where WeQ was born. I realised humans make thousands of decisions daily which either fight disease or fuel it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Vicki-Nguyen-Sound-Healing-300x279.jpg\" alt=\"wellness expert series Vicki Nguyen Sound Healing\" width=\"500\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Vicki-Nguyen-Sound-Healing-300x279.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Vicki-Nguyen-Sound-Healing-1024x951.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Vicki-Nguyen-Sound-Healing-768x713.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Vicki-Nguyen-Sound-Healing.jpg 1041w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is WeQ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>WeQ is about asking yourself with each and every decision , \u201cIs this the best possible option for me right now?\u201c\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s deciding \u00a0what to eat, what to drink, where to go, who to go with, what to wear, how to sit, what to consume in the form of media, or conversation, and the list goes on.<\/p>\n<p>WeQ stands for Wellbeing Intelligence. It is your inner compass for living with awareness and intention, reflecting how deeply you understand, respect, and respond to the needs of your body, mind, and spirit. It is the part of you that knows when you need stillness instead of stimulation. When you need space instead of another yes. When your soul is asking for sunlight, movement, or simply a moment of silence.<\/p>\n<p>Where IQ is about logic and EQ is about emotions, WeQ is about integration, bringing all parts of you into alignment. WeQ isn\u2019t about getting it perfect, it\u2019s about tuning in. To your body. Your intuition. Your truth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10384\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15c22ef8-6af2-494c-8f79-54795f51c6b5-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"wellness expert series Vicki Nguyen Yoga\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15c22ef8-6af2-494c-8f79-54795f51c6b5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15c22ef8-6af2-494c-8f79-54795f51c6b5-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15c22ef8-6af2-494c-8f79-54795f51c6b5-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15c22ef8-6af2-494c-8f79-54795f51c6b5-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15c22ef8-6af2-494c-8f79-54795f51c6b5.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>&#8220;It is your inner compass for living with awareness and intention, reflecting how deeply you understand,<br \/>\nrespect, and respond to the needs of your body, mind, and spirit.&#8221; Vicki Nguyen<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Why WeQ Matters Now<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We live in a culture that praises productivity and rewards busyness. But WeQ reminds us that we are not machines to optimise, we are living, breathing beings meant to feel our way through life.<\/p>\n<p>WeQ requires you to\u00a0have more conscious connection. To yourself. To what truly nourishes you. To the wisdom your body is whispering all the time. Living with high WeQ might look like waking up with intention instead of urgency. Choosing food that loves you back. Saying no to things that drain you, even if they may look good on paper.\u00a0Some days, that might mean a sunrise walk. Other days, it means staying in bed and being kind to yourself for it.<\/p>\n<p>WeQ brings you back to center and reminds us that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sleep is not laziness, it is strategy.<\/li>\n<li>Movement is not punishment, it is celebration.<\/li>\n<li>Food is not just fuel, it is medicine\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>And your life is not a productivity race, it is a sacred experience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The vision for us all should be to live to 120, with vibrancy, purpose, and joy. To still be dancing, learning, loving, and living deeply at that age. It is not necessarily about the number, rather the feeling. The aliveness. The possibility to live on your own terms, with your own rhythm, guided by something deeper than metrics. So I invite you to begin asking yourself, each day, gently:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs this choice aligned with my wellbeing?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAm I living today in a way my future self will thank me for?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat does thriving actually feel like &#8211; for me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You do not need to change everything overnight. Just start listening a little more closely. We are not here just to survive the years, we are here to inhabit them; fully, bravely, consciously and with full intention.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For further information and inspiration, we invite you to follow Vicki\u2019s journey as she shares stories, science, and soul through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jomeisfinefoods.com\/blogs\/podcast\">One Body One Life podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WeQ: The Intelligence of Living Well By Vicki Nguyen &#038;n [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":10392,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10381","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-company-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Wellness Expert Series - Vicki Nguyen<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Vicki Nguyen in GOCO&#039;s Wellness Expert Series explains the importance of wellbeing intelligence in WeQ- The Intelligence of Living Well\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wellness-expert-series-vicki-nguyen\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"zh_CN\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Wellness Expert Series - Vicki Nguyen\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Vicki Nguyen in GOCO&#039;s Wellness Expert Series explains the importance of wellbeing intelligence in WeQ- The Intelligence of Living Well\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.gocohospitality.com\/wellness-expert-series-vicki-nguyen\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Spa &amp;
