Building Treehouse: How Christian Created a Brand That Feels Like Home

Building Treehouse: How Christian Created a Brand That Feels Like Home

What if success isn’t about the noise around you — but finally listening to yourself?


In this episode of Asian Business Owners, I sat down with Christian Mongendre, founder of Treehouse.


From being a top athlete to launching one of Hong Kong’s most loved plant-based restaurants, his path is all about alignment, intention and growth.


We talked about what success really means, especially when things get hard, about creating a business that reflects who you are, about health, food, intuition — and finding your own rhythm in a world that’s always rushing.
