About My Author Talks
In these talks, I take you on the journey that birthed the idea of my book, Life as a Jigsaw Puzzle, and led to its creation. I share how the power of love and forgiveness enabled me to transform personal adversity into personal strength and inner growth, and my aim is to inspire others to realise, through the power of love, how much agency we all have over our own thoughts and emotions and hence our lives.
A Bit About Me
Of Chinese ethnicity and born in Vietnam, I came to the UK as a refugee at the age of four and grew up in Sheffield before moving away for university. I made London my home following graduation, where I still live with my two sons, a 10-minute walk from their dad’s home.
In the summer of 2023, after 26 rewarding years working in IT, I decided that it was time to try a different flavour of life, leaving my corporate job in order to go on new adventures and see where life takes me. Find out more about me…
