A Familiar Road, A Quiet Reminder

Last Saturday evening, I was heading to the airport. Nothing fancy — just a regular taxi, a route I’ve taken many times.


The air was still warm. Hong Kong looked how it always does at that hour: a little tired, still alive, soft in that way the city gets just before night really settles in.


The driver didn’t know me. But we ended up having a really good conversation.


We talked about driving tests — how they used to be, how much the city’s changed. We talked about being younger. About what’s stayed the same, even as everything around us keeps shifting.


A Small Moment That Landed

The drive wasn’t dramatic. But it stayed with me. It reminded me how something as ordinary as a taxi ride can bring a little peace.


I didn’t feel scattered, or like I had to fill the space with noise. I just felt… there. Present. Calm.


And that’s not nothing.


Sometimes, that’s growth — not a breakthrough or a big moment, but noticing that you’ve changed in how you show up to something small. That you can find peace in the quiet spaces.


🧭 What Coaching Actually Feels Like

I think a lot about how we expect growth to look: big decisions, radical clarity, constant movement.


But in the kind of coaching I do — and in the way I try to live — growth often looks quieter. It’s remembering what matters to you. Learning to trust your own rhythm again. Feeling a bit more like yourself, without needing to explain why.


Finding peace in the in-between moments, instead of rushing through them.


🌱 If You’re Somewhere In Between…

Not quite starting over. Not quite settled. Just somewhere in between.


Coaching can be a space to sit with that — without pressure to figure it all out.Just honest conversation, at your own pace.


And sometimes, that’s exactly what helps you hear yourself more clearly and find peace along the way.


🧭 I offer thoughtful, low-pressure coaching for people navigating change — gently, honestly, and without trying to force an outcome. Let’s talk →
