ABOUT US
Hey this is Cindy
I am a city girl from Malaysia, current living in Sydney, Australia.
I was a Chartered Accountant by profession with experience in Big 4, hotel and insurance industry
I travelled around the world for work and learned that home is where the heart is
I was raised in a traditional Asian family where I was taught "study hard, get good grades, get a good job, find a good husband and start a family".
However deep down I knew that my heart was yearning for more - deeper impact and connection
but I just didn't know how to do that
An earthquake experience in Phillipines set me out on a journey to explore what makes life worth living.
Here are some of my life lessons:
Know thyself
I realised that we can't truly excel in life if we do not know who we are and what we stand for
Self love
I was Miss Nice my entire life, it was hard to say no to others
I was afraid of being judged and worry about how others would think of me
until I decided to embrace my authentic self and love myself just the way I am
Keep your promises to yourself
That is how you build trust with yourself.
That is how you increase your self worth and self confidence.
Health is Wealth
The big and audacious goals mean nothing if I do not have the health and energy to reap what I sow
Transition from a corporate professional to a entrepreneur
Fascinated by the mind body connection, I became a Yoga teacher who specialises in
Integrative Yoga, Mindfulness and Meditation.
I help others (and myself) to stay grounded and bring more calmness and peace into their busy life.
I am a wellbeing enthusiast who are experienced in supporting others' wellbeing through workshop and coaching.
My areas of expertise are in emotional and mental wellbeing and women empowerment.
I create a safe space to explore and open up possibility for others (especially women)
to discover their zone of genius and ignite their true potential towards a fulfilling life.
Born in Nepal and came to Australia at the age of 18
With a big dream and $2k in my pocket.
The moment I saw Sydney Olympics 2000 on the TV screen,
I knew that would be my Aussie dream
From housekeeping to bartending, you name it and I've done it all
Multiple shifts in a day just to get by - tuition fee, rent, bills and food
Through the struggle in my early years , I’ve learned what hard work really is
and it became an essence of my identity.
I have been in the corporate world for more than a decade
Finance is my forte and I'm good in my job
Multiple promotions within a short few years
While I was busy climbing the corporate ladder over the years,
It was a slowly dawning realisation. A realisation was dawned upon me
Whilst I am good in managing the company's money, how about my own money?
I’ve created multiple budgets, managed cashflow, tracked monthly spending, did tax planning , month end closing for the company, how about my personal Finance?
Am I aware of my monthly inflow, outflow, return on investment, financial planning?
It was an epiphany moment for me
If financial education is so important, why weren't we taught about personal finance in school?
if I am good at managing money for others in the corporate world,
is it possible that I can do the same for myself?
It was a shift in my mindset and I’m proud to have successfully developed money mindset and now passionate about sharing the financial education (not financial advice) with others.
Here’re few things I’ve learned over the years….
- Make money your tool to create happiness and abundance in your life
- Let money work for you and not the other way round
- You don’t have to be born money-smart
- If you have managed money for others, you can absolutely do the same for yourself
- Never managed money for others, no worries, it’s easy to get the financial education (as long as you have the willingness to learn and implement)
- Following the society norm i.e. get a good job > save enough for deposit > get a loan to buy your dream home/car? Think again!!!
- Is it very complicated to learn how to invest? And diversify it? Certainly not!!!
Everyone wants to achieve financial freedom, but how many of us know how to get there?
Even if we know the ways to generate wealth, do we actually believe in our goal? Do we take consistent actions towards it?
it all starts with having that right money mindset!!! And let me help you to take those steps towards rite direction and take smart action.

We were corporate professionals with a stable job and decent income.
Life was okay.
There was no complaint except... the long working hours?
Stressed and overwhelmed?
Yes but isn't that part of the deal?
We had a big dream of achieving financial freedom but honestly...
Not sure where to start or what to do?
After years of attending personal development seminars and courses,
We were obsessed with learning but we didn't take massive action.
Why not? There was no urgency.
We need to make a change!
But where do we start?
Here's a gift for you!
