I’m Maiyshla Chunwan

I am a sensitive soul who is learning how to navigate this world with authenticity and kindness. My mission is to make people feel seen, heard and valued. You can find me spreading love and light through my smile, aura, words or actions.

Hello, I’m Maiyshla. This is My Story.

I had been struggling since 2020. Body pains, foggy mind, exhaustion, feeling numb and disconnected. I could not understand what was happening. I felt trapped. I felt lost.

I always dreamt of building an academic career as I love learning and sharing knowledge. In 2021, I landed a job as university lecturer at 31. The childhood dream was coming true. The weird thing was that I was not feeling excited or happy. Something was off. There was no time to figure out what was wrong though. I kept moving forward. Until I could not anymore. After only a year, battling the ongoing emotional turmoil, I decided to quit my job.

From Stressed, Burnt Out, and Overwhelmed to Radiant, Aligned, and Joyful

Soon after, I call it a wink from the universe - I was fortunate to obtain a scholarship from the Dharma Coaching Institute for a 6-month journey to study Soul Purpose and Spiritual Life Coaching. I already had academic qualifications in Biology, Public Health and Psychology but this new journey opened up a path of deep healing and alignment.

It was a journey from the head to the heart. A journey to understand and accept myself. A journey to embrace my emotions. To accept that my sensitivity and softness are my superpowers.

With lots of self-work, my foggy mind started clearing, my energy levels went up, my joy for life came back. I learnt to be good to myself, to set boundaries, to rest and recharge.

I quit the busy racetrack and took a quieter lonelier little path to start making my way back home. Back to my sensitive self. Back to my true self.

Alignment to authenticity has been the greatest cure to my burnout.
