Founder Story
For over 15 years, I worked in corporate, leading global projects and teams. From the outside, everything looked successful. On the inside, I was tired, disconnected, and running on empty.
I was always at the bottom of my own to-do list, even for something as simple as a lunch break. For years, my body sent me warning signs. My skin was so inflamed that I wanted to hide my face in every meeting, and my digestion and sleep were completely out of balance. But I kept pushing through.
Eventually, burnout hit. And as I sat there holding a prescription for heavy medication, I made a decision: I wanted to understand the root causes of my symptoms, not just treat them.
That was the turning point.
I realised my habits were draining me. My energy had no foundation. So I did what I had never made time for before. I focused on my health. I studied functional medicine and behavioral science. I rebuilt my routines from the inside out and discovered how deeply our habits, biology, and environment shape the way we feel every single day.
The shift was undeniable. Along the way, I learned so much about myself and how our bodies really work. I rebuilt my routines step by step and, in the process, restored my energy and health from the inside out.
And I began to notice something - energy was what people mentioned most when they met me. Friends, clients, even strangers would say they could feel it. I came to see that as more than a compliment - it was proof that energy is one of the most valuable assets we have, and one of the greatest gifts we can give to ourselves and others.
That realisation became
Rising Yellow.
Building it from scratch has been the most challenging and rewarding chapter of my life. It’s proof that you can pursue ambitious goals without sacrificing your health - if you know how to protect your energy.
Today, I work with professionals and organizations to protect and rebuild energy at every level. Whether through coaching, workshops, or products, my mission is the same: make well-being easier, more accessible, and part of everyday life.
Because most people know what they “should” do. The real challenge is making it work in real life.
Remember - we’re not here just to get through the day. Life feels different when you have the energy to enjoy it.
