In this raw and honest episode, Mindset Coach Jessica Ellen shares her journey from surviving abuse to finding new love.
Together with Karms Fung, they unpack the subtle signs of manipulation, the psychology behind staying, and the courage it takes to rebuild your life piece by piece.
If you’ve ever confused control for care or stayed because leaving felt scarier than love, this conversation will change how you see yourself and what you deserve.
In this deeply reflective episode, Valerie Beck (vitality coach) joins Karms Fung for a powerful conversation about a kind of burnout that often goes unrecognized, the kind that shows up even when you're doing what you love.
Valerie opens up about her time in the dance world, a passion-filled life that, on the surface, looked like freedom. But behind the scenes, she was navigating emotional exhaustion, disconnection, and the impact of a culture that didn't align with her deeper values. She talks candidly about hookup culture, the pressure to perform, and how chasing passion without inner grounding can lead to burnout just as quickly as any corporate grind.
Together, they explore how burnout isn’t always about doing too much of what you hate. Sometimes, it’s about losing yourself in the things you thought would set you free.
This episode is a raw and insightful reminder that true energy and purpose come not just from freedom or passion, but from deep alignment with who you really are.
Actress and model Lucia Zurkinden sits down with Karms Fung for a candid conversation on breaking stereotypes in the industry, navigating the pressure of age limits, and finding resilience through personal struggles.
Lucia shares the reality behind the glamour , from hearing she only had “until 30” to make it, to juggling family challenges, to redefining success on her own terms.
This isn’t just about modeling or acting , it’s about courage, identity, and choosing yourself when the world wants to box you in.
Rodolfo Young reveals how heartbreak can become the doorway to healing, presence, and deeper love. In this episode we explore The Pause (why he didn't speak for 365 days), boundaries vs. walls, and the secret to listening that lands.
We dive into:
The collapse that became Rodolfo’s awakening
Why The Pause is the most underrated superpower in relationships
Anger, jealousy, and what they really reveal about us
Masculine presence & feminine flow
How to build love through boundaries, not walls
This is a conversation about the inner shifts that change everything. If you’ve ever been cracked open by life and wondered how to rebuild stronger, this episode will speak straight to your heart.

Crystal Chow, a Wealth Women Coach from Singapore, shares how her upbringing in a family of single mothers and financial struggles shaped her mission to help women invest with confidence. After witnessing her grandmother’s sacrifices and her mother’s poor financial decisions, Crystal dedicated her career to teaching women financial literacy.Having worked in banking, she saw that 80% of investors were men, exposing a confidence and knowledge gap for women. Her own story of leaving an abusive marriage highlights how financial independence provides freedom and security. Crystal warns against the trap of consumerism and mistaking liabilities like cars and handbags for assets. Instead, she emphasizes the power of compounding, showing how consistent investing: even $1,000 a month can multiply wealth over decades.She encourages women to begin with accessible assets like stocks, ETFs, crypto, and metals rather than locking money into real estate. Through her Wealthy Woman Impact community, Crystal combines structured finance with feminine intuition, teaching women to grow wealth while aligning it with purpose and self-worth.Timestamps:[01:35] Why women are underinvested in finance[02:38] Family history of financial struggle[05:14] From sales to banking and unconscious coaching[08:51] Overspending in her 20s & breaking consumer habits[12:35] Assets vs. liabilities explained simply[14:02] Compounding power of $1,000 monthly investment[17:21] Why property isn’t the best first investment[23:28] Building the Wealthy Woman Impact community[30:04] Leaving an abusive marriage & financial independence[40:08] Breaking generational cycles & empowering women
