Our Partners

Wellcoaches is a key strategic partner globally in their capacity as coaching education providers. We highly value the credibility associated with the Wellcoaches name, and rely on this partnership to ensure our programming is competitive. 

With the launch of Wellcoaches Singapore in early 2021, we are excited to continue working together as new opportunities evolve in the SEA wellness space.

I am a father of 4 young children and one of my greatest wishes is to stay healthy so I can continue to play with my kids and engage them for a long time to come.

Karen Lee

I worked for 16 years in Asia and Canada in the field of computer science and AI. I never thought twice of quitting my job until 3 family deaths in one year left me making difficult choices - that ended up being positive in the long run.

I am proof that change is possible. I help people develop sustainable healthy habits and become influencers for their loved ones and families.

I believe the process is as important as the results themselves, which is why I help my clients understand the importance of having small wins along the way. I hope to show you that working towards your goals can be simple, fun and rewarding!
