OUR origin STORY

Kings of Hearts was born not from a business plan, but from a conversation—raw, real, and long overdue.

In the early days, it was just a small circle of men—among them co-founders Andy Nguyen and Yenukwa Kombian — asking each other the questions most men are never taught to ask. Beneath the surface of our careers, relationships, and everyday lives, we were wrestling with quiet battles: shame, loneliness, fear, and the pressure to be someone we weren’t sure we believed in.

Then one evening, one man in the circle let his guard down. He spoke the words he had never dared say aloud—and that changed everything.

That moment cracked something open. We realized vulnerability wasn’t weakness—it was the key to a deeper kind of strength. One by one, the walls came down. And what emerged was not just personal healing, but a powerful sense of collective purpose.

Eventually we asked ourselves: If this space is changing us, how many other men are out there—waiting, yearning, quietly collapsing under the weight of silence?

Kings of Hearts became our answer.

What started as a simple gathering has grown into a global movement—a platform for men to connect, reflect, and lead from the heart. Today, Kings of Hearts offers men’s groups, leadership training, immersive retreats, and an international online community—all designed to support meaningful transformation.

At the core of everything we create are four foundational pillars: self-awareness, character building, vulnerability, and service. These are not just ideals—they’re the standard we live by and the lens through which we build every program, every circle, every offering.

We exist to create spaces where men don’t have to wait for a breakdown to begin their breakthrough. Where they are invited to speak what hurts, confront what no longer serves, and redefine masculinity not through performance, but through presence, integrity, and heart.
