About the Rising Mom Journey

Welcome to The Rising Mom, a sanctuary of wisdom harvested from Eastern roots and Western experiences, all channelled towards empowering working moms. Ready to unveil your fullest potential amidst the bustling career and family life? Journey with me as we transcend conventional hurdles, guided by curiosity, authenticity, and a touch of cross-cultural elegance.

Living in the Netherlands for over a decade, my Korean heritage intertwines with my European experiences, crafting a diverse narrative. I’m a proud mom, a committed professional, and an eternal seeker of life’s profound truths. My voyage from the bustling lanes of Seoul to the serene canals of Amsterdam has been a saga of self-evolution, fueled by the unique challenges and rewards of being a working mom and an expat.

Whether you’re a working mom striving for balance, an individual navigating life’s intricacies, or someone curious about melding cultures and identities, this haven is for you. We’ll learn, share, and uplift each other, discovering our authentic selves.
