The Crazy Story Of How My Substack - The Lemon Tree Mindset Was Born🌳🍋

Locked abroad

In August 2021, I was locked out of my country, Hong Kong, with my 2 young daughters. Due to the pandemic, we were not able to go back home and were separated from my husband, our home, and the life we knew.

We started brand new in a foreign country, Australia. I had no network, no job, no friends.

It was daunting, challenging, scary.

But I asked myself,

“What’s the story I want to tell my daughters when they grow up?”

Planting your lemon tree

I decided to start a new path, a new career, a new me.

We only have one shot at this mystery called life, so I might as well make something epic out of it and enjoy the ride!

I started writing, speaking in public, creating and taking the first step.

Then the second step followed, the third and…BANG!

MOMENTUM

Since then, I have become a writer, self-published 3 books, launched my memoir with a publisher, launched 3 ebooks, became a public speaker, and built an audience of 20,000+ across Medium, LinkedIn and here. In July 2024, I became a Substack Bestseller ⭐️

And I’m just getting started!

What was a challenge became an opportunity.

I took the first step and I want to help you take yours.

This newsletter is an open book into my journey as a writer, creator and public speaker.

I share what I learn, the wins and the failures and the frameworks and seeds I use to plant my lemon tree to help you grow yours.
