Singapore is the birthplace of my reinvention.
I shared about my love/hate relationship with Singapore a few days before, but a part of me will always love Singapore for being the place I was able to reinvent myself
Growing up in Hong Kong, I was the model Asian child
l got good grades and graduated from a top university with a prestigious corporate job
But I left that perfect career to chart an entirely different path for myself.
And that choice brought me to sunny Singapore
In Singapore, I restarted my life
I wasn’t just the Jen who was:
✅ Living out the conventional Asian dream
✅ Making everyone around her proud
✅ Achieving someone else’s goals
In Singapore, I knew no one. And no one knew me.
And for the first time, I had the freedom to dictate and define who I wanted to be.
I became the Jen who
⭐ was more courageous, willing to take big leaps & follow her interests.
⭐ pursued her dream and joined a fashion startup
⭐ started a career podcast and got good at cold pitching to guests to be on the show
⭐ learned to care less about what others thought and started showing up on social media sharing career-related tips and content
⭐ learned to fight imposter syndrome
⭐ built a career coaching business with no prior experience
And for that, I’m so thankful for leaving my comfort zone
And having the space to reinvent and discover myself
And today, I help high achievers do the same
I help you reinvent yourself and build a career that’s truly perfect for you.
