My Story

Hey there! I'm Xia, a curious, open-minded, slightly risk-loving human who believes in working hard, learning constantly, and experimenting new things.

I live with my family in Kleinmachnow, which is located the southwest of Berlin. I'm a mom to two kids, one samojede dog, and two cats. Life isn't a straight line upward for me—it bounces up and down. But I've come a long way—from a farming family in rural China, to studying in Italy, France, and now Germany.—and I know I've been both lucky and prepared when opportunity knocked. 🍀

Hobbies

A few years ago, my hobbies were mostly just "trying to sit down in my own garden for a tea," but I've managed to sneak in: Gardening (a.k.a. outdoor therapy), Sewing clothes for my kids and now even for myself, Yoga 🧘‍♀️, dog walking, and building my website and ios app.

Cool Things I Did Recently

Last year, I initiated two community-driven projects that made me feel all warm inside:

• The Working Mom Project – a support initiative for moms preparing to return to the workforce.
• Asian Cooking Classes – something I organized for my German neighbors to share culture and food.

What's Next? 🚀

This year, I'm trying something new: Freelancing Fridays! I'm dipping my toes into freelance work with a mission to help and empower women, moms, and people with migration background to chase their careers and financial independence. 💪✨ Independence is extremely important to me when I overcome my midlife crisis recently.

If that sounds like you—or someone you know—I'm always happy to chat, share, or cheer you on.
