Hello Beautiful Soul!
ABOUT
I am a qualified coach with 7 years coaching experience and am accredited by the International Coaching Federation. I’m passionate about empowering individuals and leaders to unlock their potential and achieve their goals. My approach blends positive psychology (cultivating a positive mindset and character strengths), emotional intelligence and somatic coaching to help you raise your self-awareness and become resilient in navigating challenges. I'm also offering Christian Coaching.
Whether you're a high-achiever seeking that next level or someone ready for a personal transformation, I can be your guide. Together, we will craft a roadmap for success that aligns with your values and aspirations.
My expertise extends beyond coaching. With a background in digital marketing and solo entrepreneurship, I have the expertise to equip solopreneurs and small businesses with the tools to build a thriving online presence.
Why I embraced Holistic Coaching
My journey in network and affiliate marketing taught me a valuable lesson: success isn't solely measured by money and power. I witnessed firsthand how companies, despite reaching their peak, could crumble due to a singular focus on these metrics.
I realized that sacrificing health and relationships for business growth is unsustainable. As I navigated my midlife transition, I sought a holistic approach to building a career. A career grounded in well-being, purpose, passion, values, capabilities, and a positive mindset.

LESSONS
Started my online store selling wooden puzzles in 2005 and supplied to major franchise stores in Malaysia. We also sold puzzles wholesale to Brunei, Singapore and New Zealand. At the same time, I had a blog "Resources for moms and kids" and get paid advertisements on my blog.
Started my personal blog Mompreneur journey in 2010 and was involved in network and affiliate marketing. I also participated actively in Blogs carnivals and commenting on other blogs, and get featured in Best Blog Review, and among the top 50 bloggers during the contest in 2 consecutive years, in 2011 and 2012, and Honorable Mention- Up and Coming Blogger in 2012.
I was introduced to coaching in late 2011. I found it a unique conversation that focused on helping the client. I got my certificate for 30 hours of coaching training in March 2012, and since I pursued coaching slowly and obtained my 146 hours of coaching training in 2015. Then, I took coaching credentialing and received my ICF (International Coach Federation) ACC (Associate Certified Coach) in 2016. From 2012 to 2016, I used social media proactively, produced numerous videos on marketing and personal and business development through my Youtube channel, and I also became a coach consultant at the School of Online Business and used my Internet marketing skill to made a comprehensive video training on "Youtube Marketing" for the School.
While serving my clients, I get involved in non-profit organizations like Toastmasters and Coaching Associations. I took leadership roles such as a Communications Director in ACSM (Association of Coaching Supervisors and Mentors) in Malaysia from July 2019 to July 2020 and a Membership Director in ICF (International Coaching Federation) in Malaysia from July 2020 to July 2021 and also a Vice President of Public Relations at Witty Birds. I feel great in making contributions to the organizations.
I stopped selling puzzles due to escalating cost of puzzles and stringent regulations for toys in 2010 and I discontinued my blog, Resources for moms and kids.
Although it was rewarding in Internet marketing world, and I like technology, I had a setback when the network marketing company shut down. When I reflected about this lesson, I realized that network marketing wasn't for me because the industry is competitive and aggressive.
At one point, the founder discontinued the School of Online Business in 2017, and I was disappointed because I admired the founder. I became an independent coach and consultant, and I worked with solo business owners or solopreneurs to help them build their business online with online marketing strategies. I have few clients who are from US, UK and UEA.
