I inspire you to BE YOURSELF. Find your voice and stand tall in who you are.

I'm a content creator and social media coach who worked for 10+ years in Silicon Valley (Google, MBA, tech startups). In October 2020, I began sharing my journey of transformation online (TikTok) - moving from San Francisco to Hawaii, and then quitting my job to build my own business. In walking my own unique path, I hope to inspire you to do the same.

On this channel, I share stories from everyday life- exploring places in Hawaii, cooking with my Mom, and reflecting on life lessons. The common thread through all these videos is to have joy and be yourself.

    I used to love cooking and create cooking content , sadly now I loose interest because my partner seldom show appreciation on my cooking. Sometime partner can really influence our passion. 😂 Anyone can sugguest what I should do?

    I grew up in Hawaii. My grandma used to say that if you see bugs in your house, that means your house is clean. Why? Because every house has bugs but dirty houses have places to hide.

    If the hair dresser says that you do nothing with your hair it could be reverse psychology to make you get more hair cuts, but they did do a good job!

    If you're inclined, braid your hair overnight, you'll end up with ripples/waves the next day. No need to worry about curling irons.
