| Whether we are mothers ourselves or simply have someone in our lives who has played a motherly role to us, chances are, our lives have been influenced in profound ways by motherhood. Let's take a moment in this issue to honour, value, and draw lessons from the incredible wisdom of women and mothers who have impacted our worlds. | | At 29 and married for just a month, she found out she had Stage 3.5 lymphoma and fought for her life One month after her wedding, Kristen Juliet Soh discovered she had advanced lymphoma, a type of blood cancer that affects the body's lymphatic system.

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!😄

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. I witness how she has help my mum handled her finances and also health insurances, to ensure that we are all well covered. Now that I have grown up, I have also entrust my financial and health insurance portfolio with Auntie Laura. She would provide relevant advises and coverage that I should get and would explain in detail each plan purposes. 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. 🙂

Total Energies | | | | 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. | | | | Aik Teng, Sports Development Manager. Sport Singapore What sets Laura apart from other financial consultants is her genuine care and personal approach. She doesn’t begin with products — she starts by truly understanding my needs, goals, and spending habits. Her advice is always thoughtful and tailored, never transactional.
What makes Laura exceptional goes far beyond financial planning. She has walked with me through some of the most challenging moments in my life —one financial crisis, and 2 medical emergencies within the last 15+ years. Her quiet presence and strength gave me emotional grounding and practical support, especially when I was overwhelmed with uncertainty.
I’m incredibly grateful for Laura’s consistent care, deep expertise, and unwavering support. Even when overseas, she goes the extra mile — like the time she called a dentist friend from Chicago to help with a dental emergency I was panicking over!
If you’re looking for a financial consultant who truly cares, listens deeply, and stands by you beyond the numbers — I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Laura. You’ll be in very good hands. | | | | Rayn Ngong. Senior Vice President. GIC Laura was introduced to me in 2002, not long after I had just started working. Over the years, she has maintained close contact with me and has been regularly updating me and my family in our financial planning journey.
Of all the Financial Consultants I have met, Laura has been the most conscientious and comprehensive in her financial planning strategies. With her competent advice over the years, I have been able to comfortably plan for my family's protection as well as our wealth accumulation needs. At the same time, as Laura is a certified Estate Planner, she has also helped me in the area of legacy and estate planning.
Getting a trusted consultant who looks out for you is important. I am thankful that I have not just found a trusted financial consultant, but also a good friend who has seen me through the different stages of my life. | | | | |
