why?

Because I’ve been there: stressed, overworked, undervalued, spending long hours at a desk and snacking on all the wrong things.

After more than a decade in sales across property, media, and tech, I realised I wasn’t living my life to its full potential.

I had spent 10 years selling products I didn’t care about. It paid the bills, but I found myself enjoying the walk to work and listening to podcasts on topics I loved more than the job itself. With my 30th birthday approaching, I knew I couldn’t start a new decade without being passionate about my career.

Living in Singapore at the time, I made the bold decision to quit my ad-tech job and move to Bali, where I retrained as a health coach with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and became a certified yoga and meditation teacher.

The idea behind Counterbalance came from what I needed during my corporate years. I didn’t understand wellness. I was a fad dieter who drank too much, using work as an excuse. I wasn’t prioritizing myself, simply because I didn’t know how to. If I knew then what I know now, my corporate life would’ve looked so different.

Now, I’m passionate about sharing that knowledge with others.
