A Monthly Curated Newsletter

What if growth isn’t about big leaps, but small, curious steps? From learning how to learn to embracing experimentation and a beginner’s mindset, let's explore how progress really happens—slowly, intentionally, and over time. Because the best investment you can make is in your ability to keep learning.

Carol Koh. Associate Lecturer & Swimming Coach. Republic Polytechnic

Laura is a childhood friend whom I had not caught up with in ages. When we first met up many years later, the feeling was so comfortable, even when I asked her for financial advice as a friend. As such, I decided that she would make a good financial advisor. She was very attentive and understood my needs. She is very knowledgeable in financial planning and gives sound advice. With Laura as my financial advisor, I know that I am in good hands! Thanks to Laura, I feel more assured of my retirement plans and I’m definitely more covered medically!

Chee Hok Yean. President Asia Pacific. HVS

Laura has been my financial consultant since 2002. She has provided very customised and holistic financial planning advice for me, especially in the area of retirement planning. I enjoy working with her because she makes sure she understands my situation and needs first before crafting a solution for me. Her explanations are clear and she provides options in different perspectives and is not pushy in her approach. I am glad to have found somebody I can trust to help me manage my financial planning portfolio.

Dr Tan Eng Hoe & Mary

We have known Laura for several years now. Recently, I reached out to her to get her opinion about some retirement plan options. She did not push us any products but instead patiently helped us to make a decision based on our needs at our current stage of life. She was very patient in going through our all our existing policies that we have purchased through the years and offered very clear explanations. We are very thankful for her advice and would strongly recommend her to anybody looking for a different perspective from a trusted financial consultant.

Jennifer Chua

I’ve been with Laura for more than a decade, and my experience with her has always been reassuring and positive. She is consistent, patient, and someone I know I can rely on whenever I need clarity or support. What makes her different from other financial consultants is her sincerity and the way she explains things in a simple, transparent manner. She never rushes through discussions and always puts my needs first. I chose Laura because I trust her. She has been steady throughout different stages of my life, and her advice has always been thoughtful and timely. One memorable moment that stands out for me is how she supported me during a major life transition when I fell sick. Thanks to her encouragement to enhance my critical illness coverage earlier on, the policy came in at the right time—just a year later—when I needed it most. She checked in, guided me patiently through the process, and made everything so much easier during a very difficult period.

Aunty Laura (we call her aunty because she has been helping us since we were kids) has been providing financial advice for our entire family for close to 20 years! She has been very supportive of us and with changes to the economy, have helped us adapt our financial situation accordingly as well. Thanks Aunty Laura for all your help, providing us with a headstart as compared to the other kids my age. Of course I have to thank my mum for investing in us, but due to Aunty Laura's help, my sister and I have been able to be covered comprehensively since we were young, which many kids in Singapore do not have the luxury to do so. Onwards another 20 years!😄 - Eugene Teng ShopeeExpress —————— Auntie Laura has been my mum's insurance agent since I was young and have seen me grew up from a child to an adult.

Her patient and bubbly character makes it easy to approach whenever I have queries for my plans and making the exchange a stress-free and comfortable setting. 🙂 - Cheryl Teng, Trading Operator, Total Energies
