Living in a remote country area in Australia has truly been a blessing. Growing up in a big city in Taiwan, I used to go out all the time because there was always something fun happening to keep my mind busy. I rarely sat still long enough to finish a book that was not a school textbook. Why stay home when there was so much to do?
If I did not move to the countryside in Australia, my book, the businesses TBB & C.C.Within I am running now, and even the unique idea to do my recent TEDx talk probably would not exist. The quiet life here gives me something I never had before: time. Time to think, to create, and to build.
Most importantly, it gives me the chance to help people to rebuild their body confidence.
Some people joke about me living in a remote area, but honestly, this is the place that has given me everything I once thought I could only find in the city. Clarity, courage, and creativity.
In this generation, with social media and constant stimulation, our minds have forgotten how to be still. We cannot endure boredom anymore. But when we finally sit in that quiet space, even when it feels uncomfortable, that is exactly where we begin to hear ourselves again.
Out here, the silence is not empty. It is full of ideas, dreams, and small moments that remind me of beauty. Sometimes it is as simple as noticing the flowers on the street and realising how peaceful life can be.
