In this BONUS episode, you'll hear a replay of an interview that I did for the Own Your Voice Podcast, hosted by Rae Fung. "Join Rae for a candid conversation with one of Rae's earliest internet friends, Cheryl Lau, who is a fellow coach and a podcaster. Cheryl opens up about her earlier experiences of loneliness and how it led her to becoming someone she no longer recognised. She shares never heard before stories from her 5 year long-distance relationship and honest reflections from the past year of married life. From letting go of old ideals of success to grieving her old life in Hong Kong when she decided to move to Singapore and be with her now husband, Cheryl reveals many of her toughest battles she's never shared on the internet.

Whether you're in a career transition, figuring out your direction in life, working through differences within your relationships, or simply craving for authentic conversation and fresh perspectives, this is a cozy conversation you do not want to miss. Own Your Voice Tribe, get ready to laugh, learn, and let loose!"
