About
Something unique about me: I cannot settle without passion.
"The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams." – 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 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, there are also 𝗘𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹, 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁, 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲, and 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗼𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 — deeper layers of wisdom that only surface when we slow down from constant 𝘋𝘖𝘐𝘕𝘎 and reconnect with our pure 𝘉𝘌𝘐𝘕𝘎.
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.
