Once I caught a sunset
Captured it with a blink of my eye
Pretty words were aplenty
But I described it with a sigh.

I just had to share.
The beauty was too much to bear.

The accompanying music is perhaps just a figment of my imagination. Or maybe it’s yours…

Take in a deep breath. Sigh!

I had the opportunity to meet Chavalit Frederick Tsao
Chairman, TPC (Tsao Pao Chee) a year ago at a quiet wellbeing event that he had hosted. That’s where I had first heard of the vision for economy.

It was based on the premise that in a world shaken by polycrisis—climate collapse, social fragmentation, and rising inequality, no single institution, sector, or actor could deliver the change that was needed.

Co-creation and collaboration were needed & necessary.

So, cut to now, I get to see that vision take shape in the form of multiple agencies coming together. Result?
A 5-day catalytic event of business leaders, change makers, philanthropists, and the public sector.

It was inspiring to hear Børge Brende, President and CEO of the World Economic Forum, Stefan Löfven, Former Prime Minister of Sweden, Mr Desmond Lee, Minister for education (SG) & many others.

I am energised by the words and ideas of change makers, politicians & wellbeing practitioners that I met. A shared story by Dr Maliki Osman (former cabinet minister) was especially important to me as it linked the dots to my own backstory of entering social services & volunteering.

Thanks to for keeping me company & to .compassionate.psychologist & the team at for the fascinating talks at Lab 5!

This responsible, collaborative & holistic approach is important to us all. I am privileged to be surrounded by change makers. However, there’s an additional reason this is important to me- I am a healer to the impact makers and so I am equally interested in the policies, business decisions and social aspects that impact them.

Grateful to be here, witnessing the way ideas are shifting.

Dear all, rethink stress!

It’s not just about you going crazy because you have too much to do. There are multiple different reasons for stress. I see so many people with stress induced reactions / conditions who are completely unaware of it (and in denial).

That’s not helpful at all! How can you find solutions if you don’t acknowledge the problem?

So, are you stressed? Think again.

One of the most interesting & exciting parts of my work is the Identity Work.

It forms the core of all my coaching & therapy sessions. It’s not just assisting clients with understanding self but using both developmental as well as psycho-social approaches to reach the answers.

The insights to this work change everything!

You know why I started parenting circles?

I had given a corporate talk a few years ago. We spoke about well-being, stress and burnout of course, but I had a surprise in store- as soon as they learned that I am also a parenting coach, they wanted to ask parenting questions. Reason- one of the biggest stressors in their lives was managing work with parenting. They were struggling with the question- am I failing as a parent? The issue was quietly brewing at the back of their otherwise successful lives. Entrepreneurs, coaches, educators, homemakers, activists, actors, scientists and researchers are parents too, and we need support to raise happy, resilient and kind humans.

I realised that one of the ways of reducing their stress is to address this quiet but very pertinent issue.

So, I host small parenting circles and meet ups.

The aim is to take parents as partners and collaborate on the rich resources we have in the community. We hope to learn from each other, and also to support each other.

If you would like to be part of it, pls get in touch. We will keep you updated on the next Parent Circle dates.

Another reason why I started the parenting circles? Well, I am a parent too.

Sharing 3 personal insights, not just as a therapist but also as an observer, as a spiritual seeker and as a fellow human in this experience called, life.

1. Catastrophes come in pairs, and I have noticed that they come within 12-18 months of each other. Anyone felt this to be true? Like you will have 2 losses/ 2 setbacks/ 2 accidents etc within that period.

2. Okay, so this observation has a bit of professional advantage. Here it is:
When facing a challenge, we often say, why me? And that’s because we don’t know about the challenges others face. Most people don’t talk about their pain, shame, guilt or failures out aloud. If you knew these untold stories, you would realise that whatever your pain, someone’s pain is bigger than yours. Similarly, mist people don’t share about personal successes. So, here’s my insight-whatever your gain or achievement, someone’s achievement/ success is, and will be bigger than yours. This realisation is both humbling & uncomfortable but once the acceptance comes in, there’s a sense of balance and a sense of relief. You are not comparing- nor are you competing. There’s no pressure to prove to anyone and no urge to complain or whine.

3. You have the resources you need. Seek help, seek advice, get educated and look for answers- however, never put the final decision of your life’s choices in anyone else’s power. The only person who knows what’s the best for you is you. Make an informed choice but let the choice be yours.

Being able to have a voice and a choice is the most empowering thing of all. This is what makes the biggest difference in wellbeing.

The songs that haunt you, take you back to moments and spaces that have been forgotten and remembered at the same time.

Here’s my wish for you:
May you heal someday knowing what you know and moving with it.
May you hear the melody someday without being sucked in to the past without your permission.
May you find what you have lost- love, innocence, faith or trust.

May you find yourself back one day 🌺
