Who am I?

I began my career in law at twenty-two, young, ambitious, and certain that hard work and honesty would be enough. Within six months, that belief was shattered.

I discovered a world where truth was inconvenient, authenticity was punished, and success required you to detach from who you are. The cost of “fitting in” was cutting away the very parts of me that made me human: my sensitivity, integrity, intuition, and desire to do meaningful work.

That shock became the beginning of my inner awakening.

I realised this early:
If you want a life or career that feels true, you cannot build it on a false version of yourself.

So I walked away to understand my mission in this life.
To ask better questions.
To rebuild from the inside out.

That decision began a twenty-year journey across countries, careers, and disciplines, from law to investment banking to corporate leadership in organisation development and effectiveness, to SME advisory, to running my own business, and ultimately to helping organisations strengthen their people, capability, and scale-up systems.

Across these decades, one truth followed me everywhere:

Businesses don’t struggle because people are not smart or hardworking.
They struggle because people’s inner operating system hasn’t been upgraded.

I saw this in:

• high-performing professionals who were exhausted inside

• first-time leaders overwhelmed by the people side

• senior executives losing their grounding under pressure

• SME founders carrying the entire business on their nervous system

• teams repeating the same conflicts because no one changed the internal patterns driving behaviour

I spent years developing leaders at every level, from emerging managers to seasoned executives, and advising SMEs on how to grow with strong teams, not heroic individual effort.

What I learned is simple but profound:

No strategy, no structure, no training works if the inner system is weak.
But when the inner system strengthens, everything transforms.

This is why I do what I do.
This is why I created the Inner-Edge Framework.
And this is why my clients call me “the Chinese doctor for growth”, because I work at the root, not the symptom.

Today, I coach, teach and advise people and businesses who want more than short-lived success, those who want clarity, alignment, capability, maturity and depth.

If you want to be whole, not just “high-performing.”
If you want sustainable growth, not survival-based achievement.
If you want to lead with integrity, not pressure.
If you want to scale with people, not despite them.

My mission is simple:
To help driven leaders work inward, so everything outward can finally work.

Whether you’re a driven professional seeking clarity and influence, a leader navigating complexity, or a founder building a business that must grow beyond you, I’m here to support your next chapter.

Not with hype.
Not with quick fixes.
But with grounded, deep, inside-out capability that lasts.
