Suy invested her time to help me clarify my passion, potential, and the upcoming challenges. I was very curious when Suy made a post on Facebook about ‘We don’t know what we don’t know.’ Before I got to talk to her, my thoughts and belief on this were completely different. With her help explaining and her deep-level understanding about my situation, I actually realized when she said that, it means ‘We don’t know who we are and what we are capable of.’ My way of thinking is influenced by the surroundings including the environment and the relationship. I appreciate her kindness to be willing to help me realize my potential. Without the call with her, I wouldn’t have a shift in my way of thinking. I honestly recommend people who are struggling to achieve your life goals to reach out to Suy.

I studied under the same mentor as Suy. She is motivated, confident and always provide value to the people she is able to reach. Her understanding of business, success mindset, and human psychology allows her to connect with others deeply. I highly recommended working with Suy.
