Who is this girl?
I'm Yiling and I love helping people with centered living:
Listening to your confusion
Connecting to yourself with authenticity
Taking action with clarity
I do that through my stories on Medium, where I write thought-provoking articles on life, and freelance career counseling.
I am a former educator with over 13 years of experience teaching kids, youth, and working adults. I hold a master's degree in education and a post-diploma in career counseling.
Reading, music, tea, nature, walks, and deep conversations keep me centered and contented.
What I believe in
Dishonesty brings pain. Authentic alignment and action are vital for centered living.
O1. Authenticity
O2. Connection
We gain calm and clarity from honest connection to ourselves and others.
O3. Learning
Any "bad" thing can be made good when we fail forward and learn from it.
O4. Worth
Every person wants to grow, and has worth and strengths. Yet we tend to avoid our gifts.
