October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.
My friend @zai.miztiq and I @drmarthalee held virtual Instagram live to share about our experiences as daughters and caregivers of mothers who lost their battle with breast cancer on Sun 17 Oct 2021.
Here’s a shout out for an upcoming event. Get more informed about how Breast Cancer impacts our sexuality and what we can do about it.
Sign up for this Public Workshop on Sexual Health and Breast Cancer which I am conducted for Singapore Cancer Society this Sat 23 Oct 10 – 11:30a.m. Singapore time via Zoom.
About Zai Miztiq
Zai Miztiq, also known as the walking and talking miracle, is a global speaker, author, trainer, model and life coach. Her works have reached out to thousands across Asia, UK, Europe, Middle East and Africa.
Zai is an alumni and mentor of the Women’s Leadership Academy of the US Department of State. She was nominated for ‘The Most Compassionate Womenpreneur Award’ in 2019, awarded the ‘Kindness Advocate’ and ambassador of VOLK – Voice of Loving Kindness by Singapore Kindness Movement and conferred as ‘101 Most Fabulous Global Coaching Leader 2020’ by the World HRD Congress, recognized as ‘Iconic Women Creating a Better World for All’ in March 2020 at the Women Economic Forum.
Despite her success, little is known of the tragedy that struck her in April 2005. After a painful recovery from an accident that broke her spine and almost rendered her paralysed, Zai’s determination for a comeback redefined her life’s mission and that became a driving force for her to positively impact humanity. During her recovery, Zai knew that she had to step up, even when it meant having to learn to walk all over again.
Zai stands today to share her story today, empowering others on how she managed to overcome her fears and doubts and the framework she used to turn any obstacles or pain into power. She recorded her comeback journey in a semi autobiography-styled book titled ‘Turn Your Passion into Profit’ and ‘5 Things I Love About Being A Woman’, both Amazon Best-selling books.
Reflecting on how far she has come, Zai explained, “I feel like I have been given a second chance in life. And now that the world brings an entirely new meaning, I am dedicating myself to inspiring others. I help people turn their pain into power and turn their dreams into reality with confidence and clarity.
My hope is for the world to be on a #stepupjourney to be the strong soulful success they are meant to be. My dream is to help people believe that they can be whatever they want to be with faith and love.

About Dr. Martha Tara Lee
Surrounded by friends who were sexually inhibited and struck by dire lack of positive conversations around sex and sexuality in Singapore, Dr. Martha Tara Lee set out to make a positive difference in embarking on her doctorate in human sexuality before launching Eros Coaching in 2009. Today, she remains dedicated to working with individuals and couples who wish to lead self-actualised and pleasure-filled lives.
She also holds certificates in counselling, coaching and sex therapy, and her fourth degree – a Masters in Counselling in May 2018. In practice for more than 12 years, she is the only certified sexuality educator and certified sexuality educator supervisor by the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) in Singapore. She is also a Red Tent Women’s Circles Facilitator from Star of Ishtar.
Often cited in the media, Dr. Lee is the appointed Resident Sexologist for PinkLifestyle.com; as well appointed sex expert for Men’s Health Singapore, and Men’s Health Malaysia. She was recognised as one of ‘Top 50 Inspiring Women Under 40′ by Her World in July 2010, and one of ‘Top 100 Inspiring Women’ by CozyCot in March 2011. She has published four books: Love, Sex and Everything In-Between, Orgasmic Yoga, From Princess to Queen and {Un}Inhibited.
Martha works with individuals and couples in private coaching sessions, and conducts her own workshops. She takes prides in making sure all her workshops are also fun, educational, and sex-positive. This comes easily to her because even though she is extremely dedicated and serious about her work, she fundamentally believes that sex is meant to be fun, wonderful, amazing and sacred. As such, this serious light-heartedness has shone through again and again. For her full profile, click here. Email her here.
