I’m on a 12-month experiment to prove you don’t need to wait until you’re 65 (and exhausted) to ‘retire’.

My goal: build a lifestyle business and retire in 5 years - while still working full-time in HR, raising kids, and managing family life here in Singapore.

Plus, I’m 51 - proof that it’s never too late to start.

Here’s what I mean by ‘retire’:

It’s not about quitting work and sitting around doing nothing. It’s about having the freedom to work because you want to, not because you have to. For me, retirement means doing fulfilling work I love, with clients I choose, on my own terms.

What that looks like (and could for you too):

Doing work that lights you up, not drains you.
Being present with your kids and family when you want.
Working only with clients you love (no forcing yourself to serve everyone).
Feeling financially secure, independent, and free from money stress.

How I’m making it real:

Helping working moms sign clients in just 1 hour a day, without cold DMs, salesy scripts, or hustling 24/7.
Sharing the messy, behind-the-scenes reality of building a business while in a 9–5 — the wins, the fails, the pivots.
Showing you how to stay visible safely, even if you’re worried your boss or HR might be watching (I’m in HR myself, so I get it).

Because building a side business while working and raising kids is never neat or polished. But it is possible - without fear.

📌 Latest update: I signed a client in the easiest, most natural way possible. No pushing. No hustling. Just genuine connection. That’s the model I’m building everything around.
