Hi, I'm Rachel.
I'm a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professional based in KL, Malaysia (and also a simultaneous interpreter, but that's a topic for another page). Before I started freelancing, I led business development, project management, and digital marketing portfolios in the IT industry for nearly 15 years.
Growing up without a mentor to guide me, I made so many financial mistakes in my earlier years. I worked hard, but I didn't work smart!
As a CFP professional, my goal is to pass on the wisdom I've gained, so you don't make the same mistakes starting out as I did!
Financial Therapy
We tend to think that financial management is solely about strategising and calculating ways to grow and protect our wealth, when in truth, our relationship with money is deeply emotional.
When we don't feel financially secure, managing our financial health can feel like an overwhelming struggle. But money doesn't have to be your nemesis.
While most financial planners focus on numbers, I prefer to start with emotions. In my practice, I place equal importance on understanding the emotional and financial needs of my clients through confidential, judgement-free conversations.
My goal? To co-create with you an action plan that's simple, stress-free, and effective for your financial goals.

Here's What To Expect
SESSION 0
Introductions &
Initial Consultation
Let’s start with a casual conversation to get to know each other better. This initial chat will be a safe, confidential space for us to discuss any money-related questions you may have. We’ll also explore any personal or financial goals you have in mind, then I’ll propose a consultation plan based on your needs and budget. If you’re comfortable to proceed, I’ll assign some ‘homework’ at the end of the session to understand your financial status better.
100% free. 100% confidential.
SESSION 1
Getting Started with a
Financial Health Assessment
Just as a doctor performs a diagnosis before giving treatment, I think it’s important to start with an up-to-date assessment of your financial health. I’ll provide some practical recommendations based on an analysis of your current cash flow and net worth, and with your input, we’ll establish a few practical financial goals to work at achieving together.
SESSION 2 ONWARDS
Follow-up Guidance
and Coaching
Follow-up sessions are important accountability checkpoints for your progress. Making a financial lifestyle change isn’t easy especially at the start. We’ll meet regularly to discuss challenges you’re facing and focus on any financial areas you may need additional support on (e.g. investments, personal tax, planning for a family).
