I WILL BE THE
Sustainability Expert & Mentor
IN YOUR BACK POCKET
There was a time in my life that I didn't do exactly what I wanted. I knew that I wanted a career in sustainability, but the specifics were hazy. So instead I built my career as a chemical engineer, doing work in energy and process optimisation. I was earning decent money, ticking the necessary #adulting boxes, but still, there was a voice in me saying, “This isn't it.”
Something is missing.
I jumped from one company and role to the other, hoping to fill that void, but then, it still feels the same. To be fair, my job was helping me provide for myself and my family. But sometimes, it lacked what I felt was so important in my life – PURPOSE.
Can you relate?
I am grateful for all that I had, all the opportunities, and the connections I made through my job, but the emptiness and dissatisfaction tugged at me. I remember misconstruing that as ungratefulness, and I felt guilty for wanting more. Now I realise, it’s not that I wanted more.
It’s that I wanted to DO more.
I wanted to do more than just tick the boxes in life.
Study >> Graduate >> Get a job >> Take home a paycheck >> Move up the corporate ladder >> Buy a house >> Get married >> Have kids >> Retire (And wonder what you did and where the time went).
Knowing that I wanted to pursue a life of purpose, and that my heart was in sustainability, I started my own consulting firm in June 2020 and have expanded into a mentoring business since.
Now I show up in obligation EVERY DAY.
