🌸 Bangkok
The beauty of freedom.
Hey royals,
I'm writing to you from Bangkok - a trip filled with shenanigans, breathtaking balcony views, tuk tuk lunches... and one unforgettable stop at Lhong 1919.
What stayed with me most weren't the photo spots, but the walls. Weathered, imperfect, carrying the stories of 19th-century Hokkien warehouses. Peeling paint, exposed brick, faded murals - not polished, but deeply real.
It reminded me of what freedom really means. Technology and automation can give us time, wealth, and location independence... but the most meaningful part of freedom is what we choose to do with it.
The most human venture
I advocate digital-driven freedom across People's Inc. 360, Royal Visionary Society, and beyond. But of all my ventures, Speakers Society is the most human.
It doesn't thrive on automation alone. It thrives on connection - the laughter, the conversations, the energy in the room. And that's exactly why I wanted to build it, because freedom without connection feels empty.
Why I started this chapter
After years of scaling tech, automation, and platforms, I realised something: Technology gives you freedom, but connection makes it worthwhile.
That's why I show up for the Speakers Society. Because yes, Seraphina helps me run everything seamlessly, but what matters most is being present with people.
I'll be sharing a full reflection of my Beyond Bangkok experience soon on the blog - the lessons, the conversations, and what it taught me about how we balance technology with humanity. For now, consider this your sneak peek.
Dreams on the shelf
Here's my confession: I'm not motivated to run some projects alone. But their dreams I'd love to co-build with the right people:
1️⃣ Pets - PetByU, a concept ready to come alive.
2️⃣ Media - Métier Digest, ModeSugar, and even W.A.S Geeks. Media is in my DNA.
3️⃣ Health and Fitness - Fit and Fabulous proved to be in demand, but it's not mine to shoulder solo.
If you've ever thought about partnering with me - whether through Royal Launch School or the Speakers Society Accelerator - now might be the time.
We just launched the very first story on Speakers Society Insider - and I couldn't be prouder that it's Joanna Wong's.
A brand builder turned Chinese herbal cuisine specialist, Joanna's journey is proof that reinvention has no expiry date. When passion meets purpose, your voice can always find a new stage.
Make it worthwhile
We only live once. Let's make it worthwhile. 🌿
From Bangkok, with Seraphina by my side, I'm reminded: Freedom isn't just the destination, it's the gift that allows us to begin again - and to build together.
