Our Story
Chrysalists Pte Ltd was born out of a period of personal turmoil and change.
In 2014, all I wanted to be, was to be happy. Because in 2010 to 2013, I was so burnt out and fatigued, mentally and emotionally, that there was no light at the end of the tunnel for me. Call it leadership fatigue, responsibility fatigue, I was just so worn out mentally and emotionally, I just wanted to throw in the towel, and raise the white flag; to surrender, and fade away. And happiness seemed like the light that I was seeking.
In these 6 years since, while I was in this search of happiness, I went on a journey inwards; I went so deep perhaps, that the darkness in me surfaced again and again. And during these times, I slowly learnt to be friends with the darkness, with the support of fellow coaches and guides. And by accepting the dark, I also discovered the light, beyond happiness : joy, compassion, hope, courage and a sense of self and being.
I regained clarity of my meaning and purpose.

Now, I would like to journey with you, in the search for your meaning and purpose, if you give me permission to.
Is this an area of discovery that you appreciate for yourself, your colleagues and your charges?
To be in a space of joy?
Instead of building walls, can we develop boundaries?
Can we create safe spaces, for all to thrive and flourish, together?
When you are ready to embark on this journey and adventure together, to allow for us, to be your cocoon in transformation, we are ready to support you, through the dark and through the light, through your chrysalis phase.
Yours wholeheartedly, in compassion, hope and courage,
