As someone with diverse skills, interests, and talents – what some would call a modern-day polymath – project prioritization and managing competing projects is something you probably struggle with on a regular basis. When there’s a continuous overflow of ideas on your mind. When there are ten different projects you’d like to pursue and only […]
What’s on the other side of fear? Pretty much everything you’ve ever wanted. At least everything that’s worth something.

Fear is the source of everything that holds […]
Today I want to share with you, what has been so far, one of my biggest revelations through this personal growth journey. I’ve always believed that no matter where you are in life, you have the opportunity to make a “U-turn” if you want. To make a change if you need it. That no matter […]
Being a creative can be a beautiful and exhilarating path to take. Nothing compares to the fulfillment of seeing what was once just an idea materialize into something tangible that you’ve poured your heart and soul into. However, for that same reason, it can also be draining. Especially if your creative craft is more than […]
Who doesn’t want to live an abundant life? We all want to live a life where we can be happy and fulfilled. However, we sometimes get stuck in our journeys, feel lost, or struggle to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of our happiness, wealth, good health and joy. Why am I bringing […]
New Year’s Resolutions suck. There, I’ve said it. Don’t give me that look.

There’s this box I’ve had for the longest time in my room which I call ‘The box of memories’. It’s like this little time machine where I keep things from the past which have sentimental value to me or are linked to a memory that brings me joy. Things like old notes from my high-school […]

There’s not many things I know for certain, but I do know this: Life is exponentially more rewarding and satisfying when we have the courage to chase after what we really want rather than just taking whatever is available instead. When we don’t accommodate to others’ expectations and commonalities. When we have the courage to […]
This letter is for the mere-mortals. For those who are still in the process of becoming. For those who sometimes feel like walking contradictions. For those who are navigating the not-so-shiny but equally important bits of life. For those who are fuelled by the thought of opportunity and improvement. For those who are lost and […]

For many people, the first thing that comes to mind when they hear “Ibiza” is the wild nights of partying and excesses, or a scene that pretty much replicates Netflix’s lousy thriller “White Lines”. Ibiza has been known as the ultimate clubbing paradise island for young (and […]
My grandma doesn’t “fall” anymore. She now, very elegantly, calls it “landing” instead. Somehow, she always manages to get back up.
