Hello there!

Here, you might see some uncanny resemblance to someone else’s story since ultimately, we are not all that different.

But allow me to share my world, from my lens.

We all start a story with… Growing up, I was the most happy-go-lucky and carefree child in the crowd! I was also the kind of kid that would fight a bully. Just because.

I loved to scurry back after school to piping hot home-cooked food and I could faintly recall Sesame Street playing on television in the background… truly, those were my happiest days.

I could barely recall when and how my life started to take a turn, but one incident stuck by me — my parents asking me if they should get a divorce because of the financial distresses they were undergoing.

Being only 13 or 14 years old back then, I was dumbfounded because neither was I ready to share the load of what was happening in the household nor was I capable of mentally holding myself up.

Looking back, that was the reason why I felt small in comparison to my classmates.
Everyone had family dinners. Everyone had parents holding their hands while going to Parent-Teacher-Meetings. Everyone would have a family day at least once in a month.

I felt weird and I felt a void.

As time passed by, the emptiness grew within me. I became someone who was afraid of speaking about myself. I was insecure. I was afraid that someone would find out how things were really like at home. This is something I have not shared with anyone, please do not bring it up in front of me haha.

I woke up one day and told myself I would not allow this emptiness to eat myself away.

I found hope in the most surprising place, sales. Yes, sales. It is not a typo.

Back then at Age 18, I gained a stranger’s trust through sales… and another… and another.

Suddenly, I became Top in Singapore in that field of sales for the first time.

Success after success, I worked on my insecurities and slowly but surely this feeling was chased away.

If you meet me now, you would not see the insecure version of me, or so I hope.

Sales is making me into the person I yearned to be. Bright, positive and happy, just like when I was a little girl.

With that, I ventured further into the realms of sales, with the idea of providing a service somewhat more intimate, personalised and… meaningful.

That brought me here, to financial planning.

I would not be cringe and label this as my calling but the zest and gaiety I feel after insuring someone, simply explodes within me. I do not want to sell myself by saying I have the right values in place because that is something you will convince yourself about, eventually.

What I would love to share is that I have experienced first-hand how being financially crippled would impact a family or the individuals of that family.

Consciously or subconsciously, my goal in life is to build my own happy family. I sincerely hope that everyone grows up in a safe and happy environment.

I am Xiaoxuan and this is my story. Allow me a share in building your euphoria empire. That would be my honour.
