Two paths,
one destination

Self leadership

After two decades in corporate life, I realised I’d lost something essential, my sense of agency.

My mission now is to help others find self-leadership. What I share is born from lived experience, the same process that helped me rediscover clarity, purpose, and balance through self-awareness and reflection.

From that journey, I built two paths to self-leadership to help others reconnect with themselves:

These two paths emerged after years in high-pressure roles that left me burnt out and disconnected from myself. I didn’t see it clearly until the day I realised I was only a shell of who I once was.
That moment changed everything, and to understand how I got here, it helps to go back to the beginning.

How we got here

1980

Born in Hong Kong

Hong Kong

I grew up in a multicultural city that encouraged curiosity and independence, though teachers often said I daydreamed. I discovered an early love for art and ideas.

Moved to Karachi

Pakistan

A jarring cultural shift. I struggled to catch up, study, and pass within a rigid education system but learned adaptability and empathy for misfits.

1992

1998

Dropped out of A’ Levels

Pakistan

Academic struggles continued. I left A’ Levels midway. Tried to follow expectations and “be domestic”, but felt a quiet pull towards something larger.

Found her footing in learning again

Pakistan

I enrolled in a long-distance degree with Curtin University and excelled academically for the first time. Financial struggles deepened my sense of responsibility.

2004

First steps into work

Pakistan

I started at Shell on a contract earning USD 308 per month. I frequently switched companies, eventually joining Citibank and managing a small team in service quality while supporting my family financially.
