Vincent Hu - The Alchemy of Self

In this episode of the 301 Podcast, Marcus Engel invited Vincent Hu, the founder of Imminence, entrepreneur, creative operator, and one of the most honest guests we’ve ever had on the show.

Vincent’s story is one of radical self-reinvention. From childhood trauma and self-betrayal to building a thriving business that helps coaches and creators grow with integrity, Vincent opens up about everything the highs, the rock bottoms, and the mirror moments in between.

In this raw and powerful conversation, you’ll hear how one man rebuilt his life by facing the darkest parts of himself, defining his values, and committing to doing good every single day.

You'll hear about:

• How a childhood story of bravery still guides Vincent today

• The family rupture at age 11 that changed everything

• Why hitting rock bottom during COVID became his turning point

• What “being an emperor” means to him and why he lives by it

• How he built a $30–50K/month consulting business from scratch

• The real cost of dishonesty — and the power of radical ownership
