A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In meeting the demands of work and every day life, many of us can feel compelled to do all things at once, and may become overwhelmed or less effective as a result. To counter this, it is worth taking a moment to adjust our pace; to give ourselves the space to practice taking one step at a time in the ways we perform our tasks and how we manage our minds & emotions.

Single-Tasking for Productivity and Stress Management

I used to be a big fan of multi-tasking when it became a popular strategy for productivity. The idea of doubling productivity by doing multiple things at once is quite appealing for busy people, and these days most of us are busy people. However, several studies show that in most cases, multi-tasking can negatively affect productivity and efficiency. Here's how.

Four Reasons to Cultivate Patience

Patience is essential to daily life—and might be key to a happy one. Having patience means being able to wait calmly in the face of frustration or adversity, so anywhere there is frustration or adversity—i.e., nearly everywhere—we have the opportunity to practice it.

Thaslim (Education Researcher)

You were very patient and followed through on the initial reason I had sought your assistance and expertise, to look for a CI plan for my cousin. However, did not move forward. And when I had expressed desire to take up another plan, you were resourceful and called in someone who would be able to service my needs better. That is very honest of you instead, of trying to sell me something that you do not have sufficient knowledge on (:

Teresa Ng

Kayla is authentic(reliable, trustworthy and always the same person), full of Zeal and Empathetic. She showed me usually how people of my age group are planning and also personalised a portfolio that is affordable which will help me in future-proofing. Definitely no hard selling, not only does she not stick to one type of program, she suggests multiple for me to understand what’s better for myself. I am so happy to have found someone like Kayla to entrust her with planning my finances 😌

Kalai Rajan (Process Technician)

Pleasant, Comfortable and Informative. Questions were addressed during the discussion and I didn't know there were so many things can be done for Tax Savings! Kayla is definitely someone I will recommend if you are new to SRS.

Hui Ying (Biotechnologist)

Professional, efficient and knowledgeable. Kayla explained very clearly how things work and clear queries. She’s definitely my go-to person for any finance related questions!

Bala & Sumi (Young Family)

Thank you for sharing on the overlapping of benefits vs optimizing every dollar that we pay for insurance. You also share with me on the difference between savings & investments, and which is better / more comfortable for us. You advised us on the restructuring process too. You were also able to relate to how young families might be facing now and in the near future, and through our conversation, we were able to somewhat grasp what we will be facing in the near future. It was a very clear & open conversation. You display great professionalism in the whole consultation process. Overall, I feel the consultation was very beneficial, 8/10!

Lim Yunghwa

Discussion was on point, time horizon fits into what I was looking for. Felt comfortable sharing existing plans with Kayla so that we are able to pin point any loopholes there might be. Kayla touched about Children Education - which was something that was not of urgency until she pointed out that University fees in 2040 might amount to $100k and she shared a few ideas of how we as young parents can leverage on the time horizon to fund for our child's education!
