It all started with a lingering discontent. A few years ago, while approaching age 23, I had achieved almost everything that was supposed to make me happy. Everything that they taught us to go after. And yet with all that stuff, I wasn’t satisfied with my life. I wasn’t happy. There was a gaping void. And going on holiday and buying even more stuff didn’t fill the void. In fact, it only brought more stress and anxiety and fear and loneliness and guilt and dare I say it depression.

What’s worse, I didn’t have control of my time and thus didn’t control or enjoy my own life. So at the end of 2013, I decided to want to take back control of my life day by day, by living deliberately and giving focus to the things and people that were important to me. The start of 2014 signalled a new start for me, I took a sabbatical from my corporate job to go travelling around the world with my ‘babi' - so far the best decision I have made in my 20s maybe even my life. This is when I started writing, with the intention of educating and inspiring people all over the world to always strive for happiness no matter what their circumstances. That’s my deepest passion in this world! I left my very well paid corporate job in 2015.
