I’m an extrovert, but there are times I feel so drained. Here’s why.

Hey ,


When I was 21, I got exposed to the world of personal development and entrepreneurship. 


3-4 times a week, for a few hours each time, I’ll be hanging out with both entrepreneurs in their 50s and young driven peers who are side-hustling while studying. I said “YES” to almost everything, because I wanted to grow, I wanted to get ahead, I didn’t want to lose out. 


There’s no doubt that the environment benefited me greatly. It introduced me to a brand new perspective – that I DO have the power to create my own definition of success. 


But here’s the thing– at that point in time, I didn’t really know how to listen to my own voice. I didn’t take the time to connect with my intuition, or observe my body’s wisdom. 


There were many times I took good advice that wasn’t good for me, and left me in shambles. Many times I left the meeting feeling drained, and what’s worse, an even greater feeling of “not good enough-ness”. 


What I’ve learnt is this – sometimes it may look right, but if it doesn’t FEEL right, we need to listen.


Sometimes, our actions seem logical: 

  • I should go for this coffee chat with my mentor, he is more experienced, earning more money, and has more followers.  
  • I should go for this networking event, my ideal customers would be attending and it is good publicity for me. 
  • I should… 


But if you leave that conversation or environment feeling tired, overwhelmed, or feeling stuck… there’s a good chance your energy is out of balance. 


This feeling is a clear sign that your energy needs a reset, which is why I'm excited to share this opportunity with you…


As you may know, my work is in guiding you to Own Your Voice. Beyond developing powerful communication skills, the core of owning your voice is in building that deep trust with your inner voice. 


That includes recognising the energy YOU bring into the room, and the energy that may be affecting you in the rooms you enter. When I learnt how to recognise that, it makes decisions so much easier– in terms of the events I choose to attend, the speaking gigs I say yes to, the clients and collaborators I work with. 


By learning to manage my energy effectively, I became empowered to truly own my voice, and that's why I believe in the transformative power of Bibi's work.


One of my good friends, Bibi — a newly minted author and former guest on my Own Your Voice talk show — is hosting a powerful upcoming workshop on energy management. 


I deeply respect Bibi. She’s a high performer with an incredible track record: in a past chapter of her life, she grew a startup that generated over $3 million and earned an international award recognizing the world’s top marketers. 


But despite her success, Bibi felt a deep misalignment between her work and her well-being. So, she did something most wouldn’t — she left everything behind to uncover the real cause of her burnout.


Today, she’s one of the few women I know who embodies both masculine ambition and feminine wisdom. She's a true reflection of her work in energy management. 


Her upcoming workshop is a rare opportunity to truly understand and master your energy — not in a vague or fluffy way, but through grounded, practical tools that actually shift how you show up.

You’ll learn how to:

✅ Spot and eliminate the hidden drains on your energy — from people to environments

✅ Protect your energy in environments that feel heavy, toxic, or overwhelming

✅ Practice real energy hygiene: daily tools to cleanse, recharge, and reset

Plus, you’ll also get a personalized energy blueprint which would help YOU to understand how you can show up, leverage and amplify your own natural energy better!

What makes this special is how deeply Bibi walks her talk. 


She doesn’t just teach theory — she lives it. And she has a gift for breaking things down in a way that’s both practical and powerful (100% of past participants reported feeling a shift in their energy after her workshop!!)
