Biography
Grace
was born into a family who owned businesses trading between Hong Kong and many
Asian and European countries. With this international and economic backdrop to
her childhood, Grace learnt about the essential elements of success, namely human
relationships. She watched her grandfather and parents growing their business
and generating new ventures from being diligent and making wise decisions, showing
integrity and sincerity. She realized from the start that human virtues were what
made people successful in life. Grace
left home to study in the United Kingdom from a young age. Having been through
the British boarding school system, she was having to learn about interpersonal
skills the hard way. From youth into adulthood, Grace always had to face up to
life challenges alone, making vital decisions before she was ready. But these
testing times have grown her courage and determination. She became alert and decisive,
being sensible and responsible at the same time. During
a span of 5 years in her early adulthood as a university student, Grace was confronted
by turmoil which lost her in despair and emotional bondage. Her father died of
a sudden heart attack and left her family shaken and grieving. Grace then led
a dissolute existence that brought pain and sufferings for years until she graduated
and became a teacher. An act of God woke her up - a serious car accident knocked
Grace unconscious for 9 hours and she woke up with amnesia in the hospital. As
she recovered over time, she realized that it was more than luck that her life
was preserved from the wreckage. She then crawled out of the pit of depression,
and opened up her compassion for community work. It was through this blessing
that Grace was able to rebuild her life and finally met her beloved husband. Under
the guidance and encouragement of her husband, Grace ventured out to higher levels
in her career. She bravely left her profession of music teaching after five solid
years of accomplishment to complete a Master Degree in Business Administration.
The
first job that she landed on after her masters, as a training officer, eventually
won her a lifetime worth of knowledge and experience in coaching and consulting.
During the 3 years in this position, Grace recruited and monitored training programs
in 5 different vocational areas, and expanded from the initial 40 apprentices
to 150 onboard. She consulted to well over a hundred local companies and manufacturers,
in the different fields and industries, in setting up in-job training and raising
occupational health and safety standards at their workplaces. It was her enthusiasm
and diligence that earned her a reputation of excellence and quality. In
1999, Grace followed her husband in immigration to live in the United States of
America. Faced with the reality and requirement of retraining, Grace took up initiative
and studied computer information systems, and thus embarked on a new career of
becoming a Systems Analyst. During her struggle of finding a new job in a new
career in a new country, Grace realized her potential of making things happen!
Coupled by spiritual awakenings at the time, Grace delved into an extensive research
of spirituality and healing. It was from then on that Grace had set foot on a
journey to finding her faithful belief in Christ. Grace
began her motherhood on a sad note, having lost her first baby to anencephaly
(Read her article "A
LETTER TO MANDY"). Her pain and anguish prompted her to develop empathy
and sympathy. The hardship did not end, but continued as she faced further pregnancy
losses, health challenges and postpartum depression. When she finally emerged
from darkness to victory, she renewed her faith in Jesus, and she sought teachings
firmly from the Bible. As
she marched on in hope and love, her ability to heal, comfort, guide and support
grew from strengths to strengths. She followed her visions and intuition devotedly
as she became ready to coach others in life. The moment of revelation, as she
recalled, was an intensely amazing experience when she answered to God's calling
of being a missionary while coaching. In
2005, Grace founded her very own coaching practice - the "AmazingGrace Coaching".
She has assisted hundreds of clients leaving depression, rebuilding lives, careers,
and relationships. She also served a number of community groups and organizations
by training their volunteers in caring and coaching skills. She
demonstrates patience, understanding and consideration while she motivates and
facilitates her clients in stepping out to explore. She utilizes her acute analytical
and intuitive mind as she evaluates issues and problems at hand. Her confidence,
optimism and joyfulness are infectious and she touches those hearts that yearn
for reassurance and encouragement. As she shares with you her gifts of faith,
wisdom and mercy, you will find her a good confidant, mentor and educator. back
