I grew up in a family of &#8220;professionals&#8221; &#8211; doctors, lawyers, accountants, and bankers. So I never knew anyone (other than my forefathers many generations back) who was an entrepreneur. That&#8217;s why I charted my career path along what I knew best. I eventually ended up in the corporate investment banking world during my first pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>It was during my second pregnancy that my husband broached the subject of me working part-time to have more time with the kids &#8211; and specifically to help him grow Freia Medical. Fearful thoughts flooded my mind. What if I clashed with him every day? What if we didn&#8217;t get along? Could I see my husband at home <em>and<\/em> at work?<\/p>\n<p>But the positives were equally clear. The thought of getting out of my comfort zone, putting to practice the skills I developed over the years, and having the opportunity to finally call something my own &#8211; it was all highly appealing. I prayed about it at length and finally mustered the courage to bite the bullet. I bid farewell to my stable corporate life in 2017 to set up Freia Aesthetics, the medical spa arm of Freia, and grow the medical arm. It&#8217;s been the most intense, rewarding and fulfilling ride since!<\/p>\n<h3>What has been your biggest challenge so far and how did you overcome it?<\/h3>\n<p>While I can name plenty of challenges I&#8217;ve encountered, the one that stands out is growing pains.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s great to experience growth but the journey of getting there is long, arduous and riddled with challenges &#8211; no textbook or manual prepares us for this. During my time in university, there were no courses on running your own business; it was more mainstream subjects like accounting principles, economics, and finance.<\/p>\n<p>There were also practical considerations. When do we take on more staff? How can we retain good employees? How do we compete with the big boys and manage rising costs? We spent hours finding the right talent. As we grew, creating a structure and defining reporting lines was a huge task. There are no right or wrong answers &#8211; many times, you take a chance and fail but you learn from it and try again. The road is uphill but once you find that sweet spot, you know it&#8217;s right. Now, I look back with a sense of pride.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_276920\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-276920\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-276920 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-freia-aesthetics-entrepreneur-900x643.png\" alt=\"Serene Seah-Ma | freia aesthetics entrepreneur\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-freia-aesthetics-entrepreneur-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-freia-aesthetics-entrepreneur-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-freia-aesthetics-entrepreneur.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-276920\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Serene Seah-Ma<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>How do you stay motivated and energised?<\/h3>\n<p>I stay focused on why we exist and count my blessings. As a working mum with a hubby who works punishing hours, we choose for me to be the &#8220;stable&#8221; parent for the kids. That in itself is tough and a story for another day. Add to that work stress, and sometimes, I&#8217;m ready to throw in the towel.<\/p>\n<p>But, my better half is an anchor. He props me up when I&#8217;m at my lowest. He asks the hardest questions but also keeps me grounded on the &#8220;why&#8221;. On days when I see a half-empty glass, he reminds me that somewhere out there, someone has it 10 or 100 times worse than me. And that somehow clears up all the negatives and channels me back to being thankful for what I have.<\/p>\n<h3>Favourite places to work?<\/h3>\n<p>At my outlets where I am with my clients. It reminds me of our vision of why Freia Aesthetics exists. I love to chat with clients and listen to them tell me how we&#8217;ve made a difference in their lives, why we are their second home away from home, and why we are their comfort place.<\/p>\n<p>One regular client said that she had such a horrible day at work but somehow ended up walking by our store. She came in flustered (no appointment or intent to buy anything), and we took the time to listen to her, offer her a drink and be a friend. She was thankful and appreciative. She texted me the next day to say that was why she&#8217;d always be our client &#8211; because we took the time to be there for her and many others. I love that.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you share a work mantra that you use?<\/h3>\n<p>Anything that&#8217;s worth doing is worth overdoing.<\/p>\n<h3>One thing you can keep talking about for hours?<\/h3>\n<p>Beauty, skincare, and aesthetic treatments.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_276921\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-276921\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-276921 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-launchpad-900x643.png\" alt=\"Serene Seah-Ma | launchpad\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-launchpad-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-launchpad-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/Serene-Seah-Ma-launchpad.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-276921\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Serene Seah-Ma<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Your go-to self-care activity?<\/h3>\n<p>Barre, ballet, and walks.<\/p>\n<h3>One piece of advice to your younger self?<\/h3>\n<p>Don&#8217;t be afraid of change.
