A little about me

I was born in China and moved to Australia when I was seven years old. Growing up in a typical Asian family, I was taught to be polite, respectful, quiet & kind. For many years, I followed a conventional path, earning a degree in Bachelor of Business with a Marketing major & doing my best to make my parents proud. My life back then was filled with watching anime, playing games, & spending time with friends. Looking back, I cherish those moments & how I was raised because they shaped who I am today.

Underneath it all, I was a people-pleaser, approval seeker & a victim of my own mind. I acted how others wanted me to act, put their needs before mine & lied my way out of conflicts so much that I lost myself in the process. Over time, I felt desperate, resentful, anxious & scared. I knew something had to change.

Through starting a counseling course, I discovered a deeper passion for helping others. I started doing sports & going outdoors which gave me a sense of adventure, fun & strength. A turning point came when I encountered Pip McKay, an author, pioneer & coach, who shared her journey & the power of the unconscious mind. Since then, I immersed myself into life coaching, mindset & personal development. I realised for me to help others I need to lead by example & change myself first. I slowly tackled my fears one by one like public speaking, career transitioning, setting boundaries & even cockroaches (still work in progress) because I am more afraid of regretting what I have not done. I’m afraid of not being able to help people I could of helped. I’m afraid of looking back when I’m 70 years old, feeling unfulfilled because I did not choose to pursue what I wanted. I took responsibility of my feelings, my life & my decisions & this opened up a world of possibilities for me.

I’ve completed courses with different people/organisations including:

• Pip McKay’s level 1, 2 & 3 Evolve Now courses (one of Australia’s most respected coaches & trainers in the fields of personal development, NLP & Coaching). This included Matrix Therapies, Masculine & Feminine coaching & Archetypal coaching.

• Masters Practitioner at the Life Coaching Collage (Australia's leading face-to-face training provider of ICF-accredited coaching courses). This included relationship coaching, parent/kids coaching, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, emotional intelligence & DISC.

• Tony Robbin’s UPW, Life Mastery, Business Mastery & Date with Destiny (nation's top life and business strategist)

From getting coached myself, to meditation, reiki, hypnotherapy, past life regression, yoga, all the way to accupressure, each modality has brought me closer to understanding myself.

Now, I feel happy, strong, balanced, fulfilled & at peace. I still have fears, I still make questionable decisions sometimes, I’m not perfect. But I believe in my own potential, accept my flaws, embrace new challenges & am incredibly excited about what the future holds.

Thanks for reading! Looking forward to growing together :)
