Why My Crazy Schedule Actually Gives Me Life with Joanne Tan | Ep6 (Special Series Part 3)

Joanne Tan leads an unconventional life as a working mum by most standards in Asia but is totally thriving in it. She moved to Singapore from Australia four years ago with her family, is a certified and practising counsellor of her own practice The Cultivated Life Project, and also homeschools her three boys (3, 6 and 8 years old).

Yes.. I know.. How on earth does she do it?? Join me in today’s refreshing conversation to find out!

We also chat about:

🌟How and what drives her everyday- juggling between homeschooling and counselling

🌟Her biggest challenge is managing conflicting ideals and desires but emphases the importance of trusting in God's guidance

🌟Common challenges from working mum clients such as adjusting to new relationships and a new identity, the practical challenges of balancing work and family life

🌟The differences between coaching and counselling and how to decide which is appropriate for you

🌟Advice to her younger self
