About
Something unique about me: I cannot settle without passion.
"The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams." โ Oprah Winfrey
My adventure began with Maritime Studies at NTU. After graduating in 2009, I landed my dream job at Cargill as a freight trader. For many years, this role provided me with immense satisfaction and achievement. However, before the pandemic, my passion began to wane.
Inspired by my first leadership coach hired by Cargill, I transitioned my career to become an ICF PCC (International Coaching Federation Professional Certified Coach) in 2020. I co-authored and published a book <Second Life>, which inspired tens of thousands of readers and clients.
My vision expanded as I witnessed many clients struggling with the overwhelming demands of work and life, and feeling disconnected with their authentic self. Answering the calling of my life, I took another leap of faith, from just a freelance coach to the founder of Other Options Healing & Coaching (https://otheroptionshealing.com/).
Beyond ๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ, there are also ๐๐บ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น, ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐, ๐๐ป๐๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ, and ๐๐บ๐ฏ๐ผ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ โ deeper layers of wisdom that only surface when we slow down from constant ๐๐๐๐๐ and reconnect with our pure ๐๐๐๐๐.
If you are a high-achiever or a start-up founder, I am ready to be your partner on the journey towards cultivating your holistic intelligence and well-being. You will feel more aligned in your career and life.
