Episode 5 - The Path Less Travelled with Willis Lau
A typical career pathway would be to do what you have studied, and just climbed through and up the ladder. For our guest - Willis, it was different. He took on the path of becoming a Financial Planner, instead of a chemist or lab technician. He read books, which was something he hated previously, because he knew he had to become better at this new craft. During Covid-19 in 2020, he trailblazed in creating financial advisory content on Tiktok, perhaps the first few in Singapore. Now, he has almost 14k followers and more than 320k 'Likes'. He created a path less travelled for himself and many financial planners.

Episode 3 - Circle Of Life with Debbie
Life constantly gives us lessons to learn through struggles and failures. Debbie, our guest in this episode, went through all of these. She graduated with a Mass Communication diploma but wasn’t able to pursue radio as a career. Therefore, she pivoted to be an educator. Little did she know that she would experience one of the most challenging moments in her life. But life will also show you a different yet rewarding path, at the most critical juncture. She went full circle and is back to her favourite profession - marketing. Jump in to hear her story, her messy middle, her heroine journey, which I think is also the story for many of us.
