Hi, I'm Cadence

I help thoughtful professionals and early-stage entrepreneurs build something meaningful — without burning out or blowing up their lives in the process.

Cadence Cheng - Life & Career Coach

My Story

For years, I followed the "right" path. I climbed the corporate ladder as a product manager at companies like Shopee, Grab, and Holland & Barrett. I was good at my job, I was progressing, and from the outside, everything looked successful.

But something was missing. I felt disconnected from the work that consumed most of my waking hours. I had ideas brewing — things I wanted to create, ways I wanted to help people — but I couldn't figure out how to make space for them alongside my demanding career.

The turning point came when I realized I didn't have to choose between security and meaning. I could build something purposeful while staying grounded in my current reality. So I trained as a coach, earned my ICF-ACC certification, and slowly, thoughtfully, built Clarity for Growth.

Now I help others navigate that same journey — the one where you don't have to quit your job tomorrow or risk everything to start building something that matters to you. Because meaningful work doesn't require dramatic life overhauls. It just requires clarity, structure, and the right support.

Who I Work With

I work with two types of people who share some common traits: they're thoughtful, driven, often overwhelmed — but ready to take meaningful action.

Mid-Career Professionals

You're successful in your current role but feel disconnected. You have ideas for meaningful side projects but struggle with where to start or how to make consistent progress.

  • • Exploring passion projects alongside your day job
  • • Want structure without overwhelming your current life
  • • Seeking clarity on which ideas to pursue first

Early-Stage Solopreneurs

You've started something but it feels chaotic. You need help clarifying your offer, streamlining your systems, and building a sustainable foundation for growth.

  • • Ready to professionalize your approach
  • • Need systems and processes that actually work
  • • Want clarity on positioning and next steps

What You All Have in Common

Thoughtful

You don't want to rush into anything. You prefer to think things through and make intentional choices.

Driven

You have high standards for yourself and genuinely want to create something meaningful and impactful.

Ready

You're tired of staying stuck in analysis mode. You're ready to take action with the right support.

What I Believe

You don't need to blow up your life to begin.

Meaningful work can start small and grow alongside your current commitments.

Clarity comes through action, not endless planning.

The best insights emerge when you start moving, even in small ways.

Systems create freedom, not restriction.

The right structure actually gives you more space to be creative and spontaneous.

Progress beats perfection, every time.

Consistent small steps will get you further than waiting for the perfect moment.

You already have what you need to start.

The skills, experience, and insights you've gained are valuable building blocks.

Support makes all the difference.

Having someone in your corner who believes in your vision changes everything.
