Can you share a pivotal moment from your entrepreneurial journey that propelled you towards creating The Opulent Academy?

Back in February 2019, I had a game-changing moment at a personal development event when I saw Bob Proctor in action for the first time. His energy was infectious, and I left thinking, “I want to do what he does.” I’ve always had a passion for helping people and personal growth, so it just felt like the perfect fit—like I’d found my calling.

That event was pivotal in my entrepreneurial journey because it changed my life’s trajectory. At the time, I was a real estate agent, and a month after attending that event, I made the decision to become a consultant at his organization. Soon after, I bravely changed my career path and became a mindset coach.

You’ve accomplished remarkable feats like walking on fire and leaping off a five-story pole. How did these experiences influence your mindset and approach to challenges in business and life?

Prior to facing these challenges, I recognised that the mind often conjures up fear, which is merely false evidence appearing real. It’s a realization that the mind tends to paint worst-case scenarios because its job is to protect us.

Understanding this concept was pivotal. It illuminated the fact that growth lies beyond the boundaries of one’s comfort zone. By pushing through these challenges, I came to the profound realization that they were not as daunting as my mind had initially perceived them to be.

This realisation has since guided my approach to tackling challenges in both my personal and professional lives, empowering me to embrace discomfort and navigate obstacles with resilience and the determination to face fears head-on.

 As an Inner Circle member in Bob Proctor’s consultancy, what were the key lessons or insights that significantly impacted your personal and professional growth?

 The top three insights that significantly impacted my personal and professional growth encompass the importance of goal setting, paradigm shifts, and the power of decision.

Firstly, Bob emphasised the importance of goal setting, urging individuals to pursue aspirational objectives rather than settling for mundane targets. He stressed that goals serve not only as destinations but also as catalysts for personal growth. Bob’s philosophy challenged the conventional notion that one must possess a detailed roadmap to achieve their goals. Instead, he advocated that by clearly defining what one desires, the means to achieve it will naturally manifest.

Second, Bob introduced me to the concept of “paradigm shifts.” He illuminated how our ingrained paradigms, essentially our habitual patterns of thought, exert profound influence over our lives. Bob emphasised that permanent transformation can only occur when we shift these ingrained paradigms from disempowering beliefs to empowering ones.

Finally, the power of decision-making. Unlike conventional decision-making processes that often hinge on external circumstances, Bob advocated for a more empowered approach. He emphasised that the sole prerequisite for making a decision is the desire for the outcome. By committing wholeheartedly to a decision, one aligns themselves with the frequency of their desired outcome, thereby attracting the necessary resources and support. Through Bob’s teachings, I learned to transcend the limitations imposed by circumstance and boldly embrace the path to realizing my aspirations.

Your speech, “Taking the Quantum Leap,” on Amazon Prime’s “SpeakUP” garnered significant attention. Could you elaborate on the concept of a quantum leap and how individuals can apply it to their own lives?

The concept of a quantum leap denotes a paradigm shift from incremental progress to exponential growth. While we are accustomed to marginal improvements, such as modest salary increases of 3% to 5% year over year.

On the other hand, a quantum leap represents a transformative leap forward, often on the scale of 10X. One example of this principle, which I first heard Bob talk about, is the notion of turning annual income into monthly income. This exemplifies the essence of a quantum leap. 

Contrary to conventional wisdom, achieving a quantum leap does not necessitate increased effort; rather, it requires a strategic focus on two key elements: setting fantasy goals that stretch our capabilities and securing the guidance of a coach or mentor. By harnessing these factors, individuals can expedite their progress and shorten the time to achieve their goals. 

 Your books, “Asian Women Who Bossup” and “Ignite Possibilities,” have resonated with many readers. What inspired you to share your personal journey in these books, and what do you hope readers will take away from them?

Our environment and personal history, whether it’s past traumas, cultural norms, or the limiting beliefs that hold us back and make change seem daunting, easily influence many of us.

I want readers to grasp the empowering truth that our past does not dictate our future. Regardless of what we’ve experienced, we have the power to choose and shape our destiny at any given time.

Yet, amidst this journey, it’s essential to maintain a clear focus on our aspirations and destinations. By steadfastly pursuing our goals, we naturally attract the resources needed to achieve them. 

Through the Opulent Academy, you aim to empower individuals to break free from limitations and embrace their potential. What specific strategies or methodologies do you employ to facilitate this transformation?

At The Opulent Academy, our approach to helping clients break free from limitations and unlock their full potential begins with releasing old beliefs and traumas. We employ a variety of methodologies, including EFT tapping, forgiveness exercises, timeline therapy, and cognitive reframing. By addressing and releasing these entrenched patterns, we create space for transformation.

After addressing the old beliefs and traumas, we concentrate on rewiring the subconscious mind. This entails using empowering affirmations and visualizations to instill new, positive thought patterns and beliefs. This process empowers clients to embrace new possibilities and fully realize their potential.

 You’ve received international recognition and awards for your work, including the “Outstanding Leadership Award” in Dubai. How do you stay grounded amidst such success and recognition? 

I measure my success not by accolades but by the impact I’ve had on the world. I gauge my success by the number of lives I’ve touched and the people I’ve helped along the way.

Reflecting on the influence of mentors like Bob Proctor, who has positively impacted millions through his seminars, books, and courses, While I may not be at his level yet, his example serves as both a grounding force and a source of motivation. It inspires me to continue showing up and making a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

Can you speak to the role of mindset in achieving entrepreneurial success, particularly in navigating challenges and setbacks?

As entrepreneurs, we encounter numerous obstacles and rejections. However, the only true limitation lies in our mindset. Cultivating a resilient and unwaveringly positive mindset is paramount. It involves developing a robust self-image and viewing failures as integral components of success. It’s essential not to take rejections personally.

Maintaining focus on the end goal and cultivating a positive mental attitude towards every aspect of our endeavours are key strategies. By concentrating on the positive aspects and practicing gratitude, we can shift our perception and approach challenges as part of the growth journey. 

Numerous media outlets have featured you and conducted interviews with you on podcasts. How do you leverage these platforms to amplify your message and reach a wider audience?

Leveraging these platforms is all about collaboration. We can significantly broaden our reach by tapping into the networks of these outlets and podcast hosts, as well as vice versa.

In today’s digital age, with the prevalence of social media and online presence, such collaborations offer unparalleled opportunities to connect with a wider audience.

Looking ahead, what are your goals and aspirations for The Opulent Academy, and how do you envision continuing to make a positive impact in the entrepreneurial and personal development spheres?

My vision for Opulent Academy is to become the world’s premier mindset and personal transformation company. To achieve this, I recognise the importance of assembling a capable team, delegating tasks effectively, and implementing scalable systems to leverage our resources. 

Enhancing our social media presence and fostering personal branding will amplify our reach and impact. As CEO, I am committed to continuous growth and learning, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of innovation. Moreover, cultivating a vibrant community will not only foster spiritual growth but also establish a profound sense of belonging—a true spiritual tribe.
