In Heels with Keni Silva

Longevity, Reinvention & Redefining Aging with Dr. Khanh Nguyen

In this deeply moving episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni Silva sits down with regenerative medicine physician and longevity expert Dr. Khanh Nguyen for a powerful conversation about survival, resilience, healing, reinvention, and what it truly means to rebuild a life against impossible odds. At just 13 years old, Dr. Khanh escaped Vietnam by boat with her 15-year-old sister in search of freedom and hope for a better future. For seven days, they sailed with little food or water after the boat’s engine broke down before eventually reaching Malaysia and living in a refugee camp. With nothing but determination and the dream of one day becoming a doctor in the United States, Dr. Khanh began a journey that would completely transform her life. For over 30 years, she rarely spoke publicly about that experience. After arriving in America unable to speak English, Dr. Khanh went on to become a critical care physician, dedicating her life to helping others survive. But after years working in internal and critical care medicine, she experienced severe burnout and developed an autoimmune condition that forced her to reevaluate both her health and the traditional medical system. That turning point ultimately led her into regenerative and longevity medicine, where she now helps patients focus not just on surviving — but truly thriving. Through her practice, Austin Regenerative Therapy, Dr. Khanh combines advanced therapies including peptide therapy, hormone optimization, plasma exchange, and regenerative treatments with foundational wellness practices centered around sleep, stress management, nutrition, muscle health, and emotional well-being. In this conversation, Dr. Khanh opens up about overcoming fear, healing after burnout, redefining aging, and why longevity is deeply connected to mindset, emotional health, and learning to prioritize yourself without guilt. This episode explores resilience, immigration, reinvention, burnout recovery, women’s health, longevity, healing, and the belief that transformation is possible at every stage of life. ⭐ Loved This Episode?
