Step 1: Get to Know Your Coach

Are you someone who makes the impossible possible?

Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the privilege to have worked with professionals from 46 countries across 6 continents, supporting them to speak with a voice that reflects the inner power in them. I’ve been fortunate enough to have spoken in 18 countries across 5 continents. I was awarded one of the highest designations in the speaking industry, CSP (Certified Speaking Professional), earned by only 12% of speakers worldwide. I was also the first woman in Singapore to be accredited by International Enneagram Association.

I’m sharing this with you not to brag about what I’ve achieved, but to inspire you to see possibilities for yourself and break free from the limitations others, the society or even yourself set on you, because I didn’t start with a glorious beginning. In fact, it was a struggle.

When I started my business, people were doubting if I could pull it off. My business partner and even my mentor suggested me to do training on other topics, because English was not my first language. I was born and raised in China. Though English was my 2nd major in college and I was an exchange student in the U.S., they still believed that I should not do voice training and coaching. I was also rejected by all the potential partners I talked with. Yes, all of them. As you can imagine, my confidence was crashed.

I kept on asking myself, “Is this something that I really want to do?” And my answer was always yes. I knew I had so much to offer and I knew what I was capable of.

Brian Tracy said, “It doesn’t matter where you are coming from. All that matters is where you are going.”

Thanks to him that I wasn’t stopped by the naysayers in my life and I kept going. I was so glad that I walked down this road for 10 years. It is so fulfilling doing something I love and helping others fulfill their potential. In fact, I’ve taken on it as my mission. (I elaborated more on the mission in my TEDx talk.)

Even better, not only did I publish my first book Influence through Voice in English by an established publisher, McGraw Hill, but also I was accepted to speak in international stages in Europe and U.S.. Several audience members came to me after my very first speech 3 years ago in Europe, and told me that it was the best presentation in the entire conference. I was both flattered and humbled.

What is stopping you from achieving what you want? If you know deep down you have a message to share to the world, don’t get bogged down by the naysayers, because you want your inner power to shine. Imagine one day people look at you and they say, “When I see you, I see someone who breaks limitations and creates possibilities.” And I’ll meet you there.

It is another thing that makes me come alive, despite of being a happy introvert. 😉 I had the privilege to have spoken in 5 continents 18 countries/places, including United States, Finland, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Egypt, Argentina, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Macau, mainland China, India, Brunei, Thailand, Vietnam, The Philippines, to name a few.
