As a trained and certified coach, I need to clock 100 hours of coaching practice to meet the requirement for accreditation with the International Coaching Federation. My coaching experience include working with early career graduates in accelerating their professional development and helping working mothers juggle the responsibilities of work and family.

In my day job, I help HR professionals with their talent-related challenges to prepare their workforce for the future of work. My passion in helping people to maximize their potential and reach greater heights led me to coaching as the logical next step. I strongly believe in this quote: "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."

I ask for an opportunity to help you be a genius through coaching and save you from avoidable detours in your personal journey.

While I am based in Singapore, I am happy to work with any English-speaking clients.

An Understanding of Coaching in Asia

The coaching industry has grown tremendously in the last few years. As of 2019, the estimated global total revenue from coaching was USD2.8 billion, a 21% increase over the 2015 estimate. According to ICF Global Coaching Study, there were 71,000 trained professional coach practitioners globally in 2019. Sixty-one percent of these coaches were based in North America and Western Europe. This number excludes managers or leaders who apply coaching skills and approaches in the workplace. While the market size of the coaching industry still trails that of some other therapeutic modalities, its growth potential is enormous for its applicability across many aspects. Unfortunately, here in Asia, coaching has not gained traction as quickly as in the Western world.

State of Coaching in Asia

Asia accounted for barely 4.4% of the global total revenue from coaching, a far cry from the 45.5% in North America and 32.2% in Western Europe. Similarly, the number of trained professional coach practitioners in Asia was 4,600, making up 6.5% of the global total. 1 Compared to the Western world, coaching is still considered to be in a relatively nascent stage when it comes to the number of professional coaches and prevalence of coaching services.

Challenges to the Growth of the Coaching Industry in Asia

Some factors contribute to the slow take off of coaching in Asia. They include:

  1. Loose definition of coaching — Coaching as a term is being used loosely by many, not all of whom have gone through formal coach training or are applying coaching principles to their practice. The variation in quality of services received, all purportedly termed as coaching, gives the profession a bad name and contributes to the skepticism general public may have of coaching. Trained coaching professionals end up being discredited when viewed as a collective with those others who have not been properly trained to provide coaching.

  2. Incorrect beliefs of coaching — Coaching is not well understood in Asia, which partially explains why perceptions of individuals who seek coaching in Asia is less positive than that in the West. Westerners consider it normal to seek coaching for personal development and growth, but Asians consider it necessary only for those with a problem that makes them dysfunctional. The perception that only those who are dysfunctional needs to be coached limits the pool of individuals who are stepping forward to experience the impact coaching can bring to them and their lives. To complicate matters, fear of judgment can be an impeding force as well. Correcting the wrong beliefs is necessary to expand the impact of coaching on communities in Asia.

  3. Price of service deemed unjustified — Even for those who may have properly understood how coaching works and have accepted it as a professional service, they may still find the cost of this service too high and unjustified. Interestingly, many in Asia are willing to fork out money on commodities and treatment of physical illness but show greater reluctance when it comes to addressing internal personal issues. A broader cultural shift in attitudes towards self-help professions is needed to raise the profile of coaching and achieve greater appreciation of its value.

Common Misconceptions of Coaching

Despite the existence of a formal body to certify qualified coaches, doubts continue to exist over the efficacy of coaching and how exactly it works. Most of these apprehensions can be addressed, to some extent, by examining the misconceptions people commonly have of coaching.

Misconception 1: The best coaches give me advice or solutions to help me with my problems

A lot of individuals turn to coaching for getting advice on their current issues, in a bid to obtain solutions from the coach. When individuals set out with such intentions, they tend to seek coaches who are particularly experienced in the area for which they would like to seek coaching on. For instance, someone facing difficulties with making a career transition into the banking industry may dismiss coaches who do not have a banking background from their considered list of coach candidates.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your views on this), a coach does not provide advice or solutions. What a coach does is to guide the client to uncover the solution on his or her own, whatever that solution may look like for him or her. The underlying principle in coaching is that no one but the individual concerned is best positioned to decide on the best path forward for his or her (presenting and underlying) issue. This concept empowers the clients to use their strengths to find their way out of their situation.

A natural question that people may have when they learnt that coaches do not provide advice or solutions will be “What value does a coach then bring to the table that their friends or family members cannot already provide?” A good coach should be equipped with astute active listening skills and are able to ask open questions that challenge the thinking of clients who are stuck in their situation. The ability to empathise and be non-judgmental are also highly valued traits of a good coach.

Misconception 2: You cannot coach someone older than you or who is going through something you have never experienced before yourself

During challenging times, we are mostly likely to turn to someone older than us or who has walked the same path as us for guidance and advice. Understandably so! Why would anyone turn to a more junior person for life wisdom? The catch here is that a good coach should not be leading a client to a solution they think is the best, which is why having a coach who has never gone through a similar situation as you can be even better than a coach older than you or with a similar background and experience. A coach who has never experienced the same situation as a client is more likely to remain neutral and less likely to project their personal unconscious biases into the coaching session. Instead of setting arbitrary criteria for what a good coach should have in terms of life experience, clients should focus themselves on the chemistry and comfort level they have with a prospective coach in deciding whether to commit to a coaching engagement. Ultimately, coaching is a learned skill that can be applied across situations. Its efficacy does not depend on the specific context of a presenting issue, which brings us to our next point.

Misconception 3: My coach is responsible for the success of the coaching relationship and achievement of my coaching outcomes

The role of a coach is to facilitate the coaching conversation in a way that helps the client to pivot and gain new insights. The onus of thinking through the questions posed by the coach and looking within themselves for the answers is on the client. An effective partnership is one in which the coach does not shy away from asking the client tough, but important, questions and the client feels comfortable opening up to the coach without holding back. This partnership determines the success of the coaching relationship and whether it leads to the achievement of the coaching outcomes set at the start of each session and across the engagement. A healthy partnership should be one where the coach and coachee are both giving 100% of themselves and the relationship is balanced. An overly engaged client can be as much of an issue as a disengaged client. Sign of an overly engaged client can include dependency on the coach whom they hold in an extremely high regard, whereas a disengaged client usually presents as being distracted and uninterested in the coaching session.

Misconception 4: Smart people do not need to be coached

People often have preconceived notions of the profile of individuals who need and seek coaching. A common assumption is that smart people do not need to be coached as they can think through their issues and are good at independent problem solving. The sad truth is that no one is perfect. Even the brightest individuals can be blindsided when confronting their issues. This is when someone needs a coach to step in. A coach helps to challenge assumptions, uncover blind spots, explore different angles to approaching an issue and open up new possibilities for individuals who struggle to address their issues on their own.

On that note, it should be mentioned that even coaches themselves can benefit from being coached by other coaches! As humans, coaches will also have their own biases and be prone to be led by their emotions when confronting situations that may benefit from considering more than a single aspect. In addition, there are many different coaching specialties, such as relationship coaching, health and wellness coaching, life coaching and executive coaching. A health and wellness coach may still seek a relationship coach to improve their existing interpersonal relationships. Similarly, a life coach may reach out to a fellow life coach for their personal issues that can benefit from an accountability partner.

As more and more people in Asia gain a better understanding of coaching and embrace coaching as a modality to achieve personal growth, the size of the coaching industry in Asia is bound to grow more rapidly in the coming years.

7 Day Chakra Challenge

Are you READY to feel HAPPIER, HEALTHIER, and more ENERGIZED?
READY to bring balance to your body and mind.
READY to ignite your passion and creativity.
READY to boost your self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-love.

Life is busier than ever, and we can get more done than ever before! But our need for productivity can lead to burnout.

  • Do you feel like you’re drifting through life on auto-pilot?
  • Are you constantly stressed and anxious?
  • Is communication always a struggle?
  • Do you feel run down with no energy?
  • Are you constantly questioning your decisions?
    These are all symptoms of blocked chakras

Here’s what’s possible when you learn to balance your chakras…

  • Create a positive attitude that attracts joy into your life.
  • Feel more energized and driven.
  • Connect to your purpose and live with a deep sense of fulfillment.
  • Ignite your creativity and motivation.

What if I told you everything you needed to live your best life was already within you?

Each chakra can be correlated to everything from physical pain and discomfort in the body, to our relationships with others, emotional wellbeing, and our sense of purpose. Balancing our chakras ensures that our energy is flowing smoothly, and brings a sense of calm and peace into our lives.

This course includes a 60 min Yoga practice for balancing each Chakra and also 15-20 min meditation to connect with the Chakra at the energy level. All these videos are part of this course and you have access to them for lifetime once you sign up for the course.

Day 1 : Root Chakra
When the Root Chakra energy is vibrant and flowing well, we have a great connection to the earth and feel reassured.We are not struggling to feel safe and secure. We just are! This Chakra and energy governs our survival and stability, controlling fight or flight responses.

Day 2 : Sacral Chakra
This Chakra and energy governs our emotions. It is linked to our feelings, creativity, sensuality, and sexuality. When this energy is vibrant, we embrace and enjoy life .We can easily let go of situations without excessive dwelling, and we can express ourselves without being selfish or cruel. We tend to ooze happiness and find joy everywhere!

Day 3 : Solar Plexus Chakra
This Chakra and energy is all about your personal power and how much of your life you take accountability for. When this energy is vibrant and flowing well, we are confidently decisive but still able to enjoy the spirit of spontaneity. We have a strong sense of purpose combined with healthy self-esteem. When it is out of balance, you may feel out of touch with the fire within you.

Day 4 : Heart Chakra
This Chakra energy plays a significant role in attaining overall energetic balance. It relates to our ability to give and receive love. It circulates our emotional energy and governs our empathy, ability to forgive, compassion, divine love, and how we process grief. Without your heart Chakra being open, love cannot and will not prevail.

Day 5 : Throat Chakra
This Chakra and energy governs our communication and creativity and is linked to our independence, use of language and ability to speak our truth. Not being able to freely communicate or express your thoughts and opinions will cause this Chakra to fall out of balance

Day 6 : Third Eye Chakra
This Chakra and energy governs our intuition, thoughts, and imagination, resulting in our ability to self-reflect and have a vision. When this energy is balanced, we have clarity of mind and great focus. We’re able to accept and live our truth. We are not easily distracted.

Day 7 : Crown Chakra
This Chakra and energy is linked to spiritual awareness, presence of true mindfulness and universal unity. When in balance, we are open to knowledge and the wisdom of others and are living our best, most fulfilled, and peaceful life.

Writer's Block Shamanic Healing Session

Before the Session

I do my pre-meditation to find out the main reasons for your writer's block. (This happens psychically, where I generally just need your name, but a picture can help, too.)

It may be as simple as a deep rooted belief that once you write from your heart and really put your honest thoughts and fantacies out there, you will be harshly judged, not understood, criticised, unappreciated, ridiculed, laughed at, so on and so forth. It may have its origin in a trauma you have experienced in this life time or more than one lifetime. It could be a karmic cycle you're going through and maybe it's not the first life, where you struggle to be your true self and to express yourself freely.

Perhaps, it could be a belief that no matter how hard you try, you can never create a really good piece of writing. Perhaps, it's an issue of completing something. Perhaps, concerns over money and writing what sells (and not what is close to heart) that's the problem.

The above are just examples. I would need to meditate to see what your unique situation is.

Reading Part of the Session

In this part, I will let you know what I saw in my visions when I pre-meditated on your writer's block.

Healing Part of the Session

We will discuss the reading part of the session and wil find what traumas / reasons / habits / beliefs / etc. are available for healing. We may find the specific events, decisions or promises you made in the past that need to be revisited and changes made. With your permission, I will perform shamanic healing for those particular birth places of the limiting beliefs, fears and hurts that lie at the heart of why you are experiencing your writer's block.

This kind of healing is not only good for critical instances, where help is needed. If you are not experiencing writer's block at this time, this kind of healing can reveal issues you would benefit from healing and clearing to become even better at what you do, do release any fears, judgements, beliefs, limitation that may be hindering your writing at this time.

The goal of this healing session is to get you to feel safe and comfortable being your true authentic self, making your authentic decisions and taking bold steps in the persuit of freely and openly expressing your true self in a unique way, and doing it with pleasure, joy and peace.

Please write your questions, concerns and anything else you would like to know about this session in the comments below.

  • Please book your session a few days in advance because I need some time to meditate on your particular situation and understand for myself, what action steps can be taken for healing.

Soul Realignment Akashic Records Reading

How many of you say you don’t know why something keeps happening to you…over and over again….in your life? And you ask, “Why?” Others wonder about past lives…”What did I do to deserve this?” Some feel drawn to things they don’t understand, or are attracted to people or places or jobs….and don’t know why. Do you feel like you are always the outlier, the visitor, the ‘never-quite-fits-in’ one? A Soul Realignment Reading can help answer some of those questions. I go into your Akashic Records and look at your soul’s journey…but more…I look at your divine gifts, too. It uncovers the blocks and restrictions that can stop the “over and over again” feeling, can explain the “never-quite-fit-in” feeling, can give perspective to the attraction to certain people or places, and it can shed light on how to change choices that are not in line with your divine gifts…. and allows abundance to flow into your life. This reading can also reveal attached souls or Earthbound souls that are weighing you down and drawing on your life force energy. They can be cleared and released as part of the reading.

About Sekhmet
Sekhem (or Sekhmet) is an ancient Egyptian word that means “Universal Energy or Power”, roughly translated as “Power of Powers”. Sekhem in Egyptian hieroglyphs is symbolized by the scepter, and it represents the connection between Heaven and Earth.

...There are no other known energy systems that can compare with the high vibrational energy of Sekhem, nor does any other energy work at a deeper soul level. It also allows you to heal, and it helps your personality and spirituality, so you can find your soul’s purpose and unlock your full potential.

SEKHMET” was regarded as the Goddess of Healing, Protection, and Destruction of Illness.
For the Egyptians, magic was a normal part of everyday life. It was used in very formal religious rituals and was considered an integral part of medicine at all levels.

WHAT IS THE OPTIMUM NUMBER OF SESSIONS?
The traditional number of sessions is four. This tends to give you enough time to evaluate the benefits, if any, you are receiving.
When you are facing a serious illness, most people would suggest a series of four sessions completed in less than one week.
