Longing for your past (or future)?
As I navigate this grieving season after losing my father a few weeks ago, I’ve been feeling a subtle, quiet grief from time to time. I feel “longing.” It comes in small moments throughout the day, a deep feeling about what I long for: a life where my father is still here, his smile and kindness…

A Life Update (not the usual..)
Today’s blog article is a bit different. I decided not to write some insightful article as usual, but rather to share you some personal update.. It’s been a really difficult three months for my family. We have been going back and forth to the hospital as Bapak, my father, who was recently diagnosed with colon…

My October Commitment
This month is my birthday month (well, it’s actually on the 15th! 🎉). To be perfectly honest with you, this year has been really challenging. I’ve found myself navigating so many life challenges, both professionally and personally. From my dad sickness, my skin health situation to my finance. I finally had to acknowledge that, yes,…

The BIG Questions
I had so much fun at the Jakarta Mindvalley community meetup couple of weeks ago. It’s always inspiring to connect with like-minded people, and we actually played a game with my fun side project, THE BIG QUESTIONS—a card deck of 52 questions designed to help you transform your life and build meaningful connections, one question…

Embrace The Struggle
I’ve been struggling with a skin eczema condition in both hands (and it’s been 1.5 years!). I feel like I’ve tried everything, but it hasn’t gotten better.

The Day I Decided to Become a Coach
My journey to becoming a coach started as long ago as I can remember. I recall my life being changed after I read “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens” by Sean Covey in high school. But then, life kind of just happens… About seven years ago, I went through a period of depression. That…

No Agenda, Only Love
A couple of weeks ago was so much fun for me. I had many social engagements, and one of my highlights was finally meeting my lecturers’ friends in person. We’d been communicating over WhatsApp discussing about lecture and stuff, and we finally had a really nice dinner together. I also had a great time connecting…

The Turning Point
At one point in my career, I was at the top of the game. I led a big team that I built from the ground up. I performed really well on my work, and I had the most solid team.. Until.. It wasn’t. When I built the team, I didn’t have much self-awareness. I thought…

Asking For Support
Okay, real talk. I see myself as a very independent person. Always have been. My default setting is “I got this,” and I’m usually really good at handling things on my own. But recently, life threw a few curveballs my way. I faced some challenges, especially around my finances and business, and let’s just say, there were…

The Gift of Silence
We live in a world full of distractions. And hey, most of the time, it’s actually pretty useful, keeps us connected and entertained. But you know how it is – we can easily get overwhelmed, our senses overloaded. 😟 These past couple of weeks, I’ve been on a mission: to really listen more to myself. Not…
