How this entrepreneur helps people heal through the power of fandoms - ft. Elly Yeoh

In this episode, we speak with the incredible Elly, an entrepreneur and content creator as she takes us on a journey of healing through the power of imagination! 💭 

With her background in design and branding, Elly aims to create a brand that not only reflects this celebration of imperfection but also empowers others to embrace their own unique qualities. Elly shares her personal experiences and how understanding and connecting with oneself can lead to kindness towards oneself and others 💛

Elly's unique system, born out of her own preferences and tested over time, incorporates journaling techniques, tools, forms, and styles to create a transformative experience. We delve into emotional well-being, coping with difficult experiences, and the impact of COVID on mental health conversations. She also shares invaluable insights on self-discovery, inner work, and finding purpose and drive in our work. 

Plus, we uncover the inspiration behind the name Shin.tsugi and explore the fascinating concept of kintsugi. 

Fun Fact: Elly and I met over TikTok and bonded over Harry Potter, and being in ‘Slytherin’ 🐍 House. Yes, we’re very proud of it.

Remember, we're all a work in progress, but we're built to soar and fly. 🚀
