From Law & Business Owner to Taxi Driver in Singapore [W&S 133 ft

What happens when the life you’ve built suddenly unravels?

Meet Eddie aka LazyCabbie — a man who went from running his own business to driving a taxi overnight. But this isn’t just a story about career collapse. It’s about identity, shame, anger, and what it truly means to rebuild — not just your income, but your self-worth.

You’ll hear:
The moment everything fell apart — and the one emotion that consumed him (hint: it wasn’t sadness)
Why his biggest critic wasn’t society… or his family… but someone much closer
How a simple comment from his wife sparked a journey that now has thousands watching and healing alongside him
The surprising place he found therapy — and no, it wasn’t a counselor’s office

Eddie didn’t just survive his downfall — he transformed it into a message that’s resonating across Singapore and beyond. And his definition of success? It might just challenge everything you think you know.

Tune in because sometimes, the most inspiring stories come from those who’ve lost everything… and found themselves in the process.
