Description

Can working mothers truly balance career and family? In this episode, Delia speaks with Jamie Lim, CEO of Scanteak Singapore and mother of three, about navigating rising expectations while staying grounded in values. Jamie shares how aligning parenting decisions with shared priorities helped her and her husband focus on what matters most—and let go of guilt.

Discover practical insights on intentional choices and strengthening partnerships at home. As Jamie reminds us: “Once you get your goals right, your purpose right, you will know how to make the right decisions and prioritize the right ones.”

This honest, inspiring conversation will encourage you to reflect on your own definition of a good life and how self-acceptance and role modeling can empower future generations to live purposefully.
