Cheryl Lau (she/her) is the coach for aspiring thought leaders and host of the Thought Leader Club podcast.

She believes that sharing your story, becoming known for your thought leadership, and building a body of work is the foundation for creating your own version of a successful life, career, and business.

I’ve quit two prestigious career paths (law school and PhD/academia) to pave my own entrepreneurial career. I literally went from being the Asian parent’s dream child to their biggest disappointment.

But since starting my business and brand in 2019 and consistently building my body of work + thought leadership, I’ve forged a new path and created a business & career that not only makes me proud… But it also makes my parents proud

In just a few years, I’ve also been featured on the TODAY Online, spoken on the CNA 938 radio, and have held workshops for the University of Toronto - Victoria College, the Tzu Chi Humanistic Youth Center, and the Asian Wander Women.

My podcast, The Side Hustle Club (Now known as The Thought Leader Club), was the recipient of the 2023 Golden Crane Award (from the Asian American Podcasters Association)

All of this was only possible because I’m now known for my unique thought leadership, I’ve built a body of work that compels best-fit clients to work with me, and I’ve ultimately built a business & career that I’m so, so proud of

And I’m ready to help your audience do the same
