Darlene Wendy Wong’s life is like the journey of a beautiful butterfly. Her career in the financial services industry spans nearly twenty years in the area of data management and analytics, strategic analysis and marketing analysis. She has worked for Providian Bank, Charles Schwab Corporation, and recently reached her five-year work anniversary at Bank of the West as a data analyst. From the outside, her life looks picture-perfect, but Darlene shares growing up in her household was pure survival. Growing up in a very traditional Chinese culture, she had to deeply suppress her real self and mute her true voice and preferences. However, that upbringing actually formed the core of who she is, which is of tenacity, patience, self-expression, and the constant pursuit of empowerment, to be able to step outside and have a global view of things.

Most of us don’t know why we are yearning to do something which has nothing to do with our education or our background. Until you look at your life from outside, you would not be able to tell where those dreams and desires came from. The most effective way of looking at yourself from the outside is by working with a life coach, someone who is trained to help you see your blind spots, to help you align with your core values, and to help you achieve the things that are important to you. The next best way to look at yourself from the outside is by meditation and reflection on yourself on daily basis. It might take longer, but it can take you there. Lisa K.Y. Wong’s story of growing up will show exactly why she does what she does now, and why she is so passionate to teach other moms and children on self-care as she launches the Climb Every Mountain Self-Care Movement globally.
