It took a question about her life purpose from an editor of her latest book-which chronicles her global experiences as a humanitarian doctor for Tam Wai Jia to realise what it was. "It has always been about dreams since I was 18: raising funds for the kids in Nepal, publishing my [picture] books, [starting my non-profit organisation] Kitesong Global," says the mother-of-two. "What is the dream that's buried inside you that you want to give to the world?" And so she chose to name the book Dream Brave.
The theme continued into her debut calligraphy exhibition, The Dreams Collection, which featured 10 of her works showcased at the atrium in Clarke Quay Central over Lunar New Year to raise funds for Kitesong Global. Through the exhibition, she displayed the determination and fearlessness she has always had when it comes to her life's work.
