Pearl: It definitely was not because I love cleaning, in fact I hated it!

This desire originated from being disillusioned by a few incidences I witnessed in my corporate career as a private banker in Singapore. The last straw was when 911 happened. It was a massive wake-up call for me as I imagined all the lives lost in the buildings that look exactly like mine. I asked my 29-year-old self then, would I be happy with the life I led if a plane came through the window that morning? The answer was a resounding no. I didn’t know what it would look like then, but I felt that my purpose was for something bigger than being a corporate slave, adding more millions to a bank’s bottom-line.

I had a burning desire to create a more purpose-lead business that could create a positive impact.

After more research, I was horrified to learn that cleaning products contained toxic ingredients, many of It explained why growing up with a mum who loved to clean, I suffered severe asthma and sensitive skin. It also explained my aversion to cleaning in my adult life!

Through mediation, I’ve learned how to surrender the outcome and trust that things will happen in my best interest and in its own time.
