Beauty of Harmony and Balance

-

It takes plenty of guts and grit to transition from a steady income and job security to building a start-up with a concept that is rather alien to our society—but that’s exactly what girl boss Francesca Chia has done. Since its conception in 2014, Goget, the brainchild of the former management consultant and her friends, hasn’t always been sunshine and roses, but for Francesca, it’s about helping people to help others.

As CEO and cofounder of the open-market personal assistant platform, she doesn’t just attend corporate meetings and deal with clients, she also takes time to check up on how her coworkers are doing. Since the dawn of Goget, the business has helped to change lives; providing opportunit­ies for those who may not be able to work in the traditiona­l workforce. Goget was built with the intention to empower people and attempt to eliminate the friction and biases of the traditiona­l labour market. Attributin­g trust and teamwork to be the driving forces that help build her team, Goget doesn’t just represent a concept but Francesca’s go-getter attitude as well.

However, despite her hectic schedule, she still manages to find the time to relax and unwind, often starting her work day with a morning yoga session. A self-professed foodie, she spends her time cooking and eating healthy—even preparing meals for her husband on weekdays. Weekends are reserved for herself however, slotting in time with family and friends in between her creative hobbies.

While finding balance has been a juggling act of organising her priorities, Francesca doesn’t neglect her skin in the midst of taking on the roles of boss, wife, daughter and friend. With a beauty routine just as thoughtful­ly planned as her schedule, Francesca attributes her healthy skin to being a loyal user of Sulwhasoo. “Using Sulwhasoo’s Concentrat­ed Ginseng Renewing Cream EX helped maintain my skin’s youthfulne­ss; I’m really glad that my skin still feels and looks smooth and clear. It also makes me feel energised and I go through my day feeling great,” she says. “Ageing well has always been important to me; I believe we should take care of ourselves so as to be able to contribute to society, and that includes taking care of our skin.”
