Recap 2025 - Welcome 2026!

(All photos in this post are mine)

I couldn’t welcome 2026 with so much light and grace without everything that happened in 2025.
Well, this year 2025 has been totally incredible, and I’m feeling blessed in so many ways.

Of course, the tragic loss of my dad in September was really hard, but I can’t be more grateful for spending the last months of his life with him and with my family. Making the decision to leave New Caledonia and go back to my parents in France, was certainly wise and joyful.

If you follow me on social media, you’re already aware of some of the accomplishments I’m going to describe below, but some of them were kept private – I still believe that being low-key is part of my success, I’m not here to impress but to lead by example by making my dreams come true.
​
Without further ado, and not in a specific order, all the things I’m proud of this year 2025:

​​

• Rebranding –  Blog About L. became My Epic Self-Love

And the French website doesn’t exist anymore, you are redirected automatically to myepicselflove.com, which isn’t an issue as you all have translated content with your browser anyway.

It was time to evolve after 7 years, and my website isn’t so much a blog now + my notoriety is growing as an author, speaker and coach, and I needed a stronger name.

I’ve always provided a free access to my many articles, and my entire website is ad-free, and I intend to keep it that way – which means that your financial support is always welcome!

Don’t be shy, every dollar, euro, pound, won count!!

• Author – My Solo Wedding in Santorini: Or How I Saved My Life

Yes, I definitely felt like an author this year – a book tour in California with multiple events + I met the singer Seal randomly and I was able to give him my book! Such an incredible moment, he’s such a beautiful soul!!
Thank you to my fairy Godmothers, Lisa Garr and Gina Salvati for their love and support!

Two book signings in Seoul! Last-minute thing while I was there because people were so interested by my book.

I was the guest of multiple podcasts, including the one with the incredible Athena Starseed: https://youtu.be/DztI9RWjNUk

And hopefully more to come in 2026!!

• Self-Love Coach

I couldn’t be more excited to coach so many beautiful souls. It was a challenge I have to say, I learnt a lot from it, and I keep learning as I’m helping more and more people to transform and live their dream life.

I encourage you to sign up for my next free Masterclass on Jan, 7 (in English), all the details here: https://www.myepicselflove.com/coaching.html

And I plan to do at least 3 of them in January as I know lots of you are looking for advice and guidance at this time of the year, and I really want to be here for you.

And stay tuned as I will be announcing in a few months super exciting news 😉

• Screenwriter

The most unexpected turn of my life and what brings me the most excitement. I ended up writing my first script in 2023 by accident, listening to the Divine.

Finalist of multiple International Screenplay competitions in 2024 and 2025, including being the only female finalist (TV category) at the Santa Barbara International Screenplay Awards, which interviewed me, you can read it here: LINK

I didn’t know I had this talent, and I was even more surprised to see how much I loved screenwriting!

Remi Adeleke, Hollywood actor and filmmaker, my friend and mentor, taught me everything I know, and having his support in this industry is a true blessing.

So of course, miracles keep happening for me and in November, I had a meeting with the Seoul Film Commission for one of my projects, and the day before I even met my favorite Korean actor Kim Jae-Uck!!! (I’d love to work with him one day.)

I mean I can’t even describe my emotions; it is insane!!
​

• Singer Songwriter – Recording Artist

Woww!!!! Probably my biggest joy and pride this year!

I was 14 when I wrote my first song (music & lyrics), it took lots of delays, detours and fears but 30+ years later, I recorded my first single (and more) in studio, in Ojai, California.
This wouldn’t have been possible without my incredible and loving coaches and producers, the Brothers Koren. Three years we’ve been working together, and serendipity is what defines the most this incredible journey together.
+ I am officially registered in the US as a songwriter, this is beyond any of my expectations, you know as a little French girl who grew up in the Alps, my dad was a fireman and my mom a cleaner, how is it even possible?!?
​
And with great emotion I announce that my first single will be released on Feb 17th, 2026!!
Don’t worry, you will receive plenty of info in the next couple of weeks to pre-save and pre-order. 

• Travels

When I started the year 2025, I didn’t have a list of the trips I wanted to do, but my theme was “Harmonious Freedom” and my mantra “Time to fly”.
Well, I wasn’t expecting to travel around the world – literally, and in 8 different countries: New Caledonia (obviously), California (twice), Hawaii, Sydney, Milan (twice), Disneyland Paris, the French Alps, Malta, Geneva Switzerland, and Seoul South Korea!
Except for one, all of them have been planned at the last minute following my intuition and my dreams. And I can tell you that they all unlocked so many new dreams and opportunities.
​

• Community

I received so much love and support from my different communities, mentors, and you!
+ I’ve met so many new fantastic people this year, it’s priceless!
You’re giving me the inspiration to dream bigger and to expand my horizons.

• Seoul, South Korea

Many of you know that I spent a full month in Seoul, but you probably don’t know that a few weeks before I flew there, I obtained my first certificate in Korean Language from Yonsei University – one of the best South Korean Universities and in the world. Again, at the beginning of 2025, I had no clue I was going to learn Korean, or visit this country, yet somehow, I felt guided to do both. I still don’t know the full reason behind it, even if I have some clues. Now, let’s be clear I’m not fluent yet, and I barely spoke Korean when I was there, I used English, but I’m committed and I keep learning every day. And yes, I’m also planning to go back to Seoul in 2026, and probably for good!!
 
This year 2025 really pushed me out of my comfort zone, and I discovered some deep courage I didn’t know I had. I tried so many new things like pottery, I took healing to another level, I released old patterns, and I was back to photography which I missed a lot as the previous year I did more videos.
I can say that I did step up during this year!

I do believe that 2026 is going to be even more surprising and magnificent, and I can’t wait to see what’s going to unfold for you, for me and for the world…
 
Let’s keep growing and having fun.
I wish you a fantastic year 2026!!!

Love & Joy,
Laëtitia Nguyen
