Unstoppable - SIA

Q2: What's your go-to song when you need that extra boost of confidence?

Q3: Which women inspired you the most?

The most inspiring woman in my life is my mom. She's not just my mentor but also my best friend. Her unwavering optimism and bravery in overcoming life's obstacles are what make her such a beacon of inspiration to me. Coming from a small town in China with limited resources, she pursued her education after the cultural revolution and eventually became a teacher. My Mom is always kind and caring towards me and my younger brother. She's a true giver, never expecting anything in return.  That's why I strive to follow her example in my own life. She's one of the people who inspire me tremendously.

Mother Teresa cared for others in need regardless of religion, philosophy, race, wealth, or political influence. She embodied traits of caring, selflessness, religiosity, and risk-taking.
