Founder of Legion | Product Lead · Paris, France
I’ve had a pretty crazy life. I was just a random kid from Singapore, and somehow I found myself living a pretty unorthodox life, met some very interesting people, lived in 3 different countries on my own, and now on a new venture running this platform to help others transform themselves beyond their circumstances. How you ask? Mostly God’s grace, but in addition to that, a lot of sheer will. People often assume I come from money. Reality is, I come from a single mom family and grew up relying on food stamps. I used to think I was born unlucky. My ethnicity. Where I was born. I thought God played a joke on me when he created me. Nevertheless, the one constant throughout the many phases of life has been my faith, and it’s taught me that God never makes mistakes. We just need to listen when it’s time to fix ourselves or our circumstances. Speak with me on the following topics: -Pursuing a digital nomad lifestyle -Living a minimalist life -Alternative career pathways to college -Long-distance relationship consulting

The Parable of the Ten Maidens
A meditation a sister gave in an online discernment was that they used olive oil for their lamp, and in order to make them, the olives needed to be crushed, so we could think that the wise ones underwent a crushing of themselves. They allowed the Lord to work in them and through them in order to produce oil so they can participate fully in the celebration with the bridegroom. Whereas perhaps i thought the foolish ones were overcome with fear or maybe they had acedia or something which lead them to not bring with them any spare oil for them see him. So we could say that they lived their lives in accordance to the will of God and that they prepared for the Time and didn’t let fear stop them from doing so. This sort of awoke in me a sense of urgency—that I can’t and don’t want to be foolish in living my life because, well, I would very much like to see and be with our Lord and it gives a sense of courage to act on His will. (Pardon if i seem all over the place) Have you guys ever meditated on this parable from our Lord? I’d like to hear you thoughts on it if you wanna share it. Also, do you think its possible that the wise maidens could’ve shared their extra flask? Spritually, do you there’s meaning behind when they told the foolish ones to go and buy one?
Medjugorie vandalized
I don’t know if you’ve ever visited Medjugorje, or even read much about this place, but for millions of Christians around the world it is a place of prayer, conversion, hope, and peace. Sacred images were defaced, offensive messages were left behind. My first reaction was anger and disappointment. That’s understandable. But as Christians, Jesus asks something much more difficult: “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” So pray for the attacker and his conversion.
The Feast of St. Pantaleon
Today (July 27th) is the feast of St. Pantaleon. “[The priest] Hermolaus congratulated Pantaleon on his status as the most skilled doctor in all of Rome, before telling him a life-saving truth: “But, my friend, of what use are all your skills in this art, since you are ignorant of the science of salvation?” From that moment forward, Pantaleon made himself fully available to God. And God made him an instrument of mercy for others. Pantaleon gave sight to the blind, freed slaves, and healed paralytics.” https://www.dynamiccatholic.com/saint-today?date=2026-07-27&srsltid=AfmBOoracmGPJuzbZcPPMisj-Z6ULpiWyTvOY2ENJf33TsqoRWeMUMXZ
