Years ago, I had a fellow sex educator friend visit me in Singapore. She bought a whole bunch of things, wanted to lighten her suitcase and tried to offload stuff by gifting me her vibrator. I didn’t want it and she came up with the idea of gifting it to my mom all on her […]

Years ago, I was attending a free-form movement class regularly and got to know a person whom I knew was a popular NLP coach in Singapore. Since I knew little about NLP, I was curious about his work. After one session, I found myself walking with him and his followers to the MRT station and […]

Years ago when I was attending sex therapy training in Florida, my teacher would introduce me to everybody as “Dr Lee”. I would be embarrassed because it wasn’t true. I wasn’t qualified yet, and quite some way from being a Dr of anything. In the academic world we’re in, I thought my teacher should know […]

One of my longest friend from polytechnic has a tendency to over explain. Because I cherish the friendship, we have kept in touch over the years despite how different we are. Over time, I notice how drained of energy and how I can’t wait to get away from her each time we meet. Even though […]

Many years ago, my friend who is an avid dog lover refused to see a life coach I recommended because of the way the coach treated her dog. I couldn’t see anything amiss with her dog but my friend explained: from the eyes, fur, and energy of the dog. The dog was confined in a […]
