Hey there friends! Welcome to the About Me page at The Modest Koala. I’m Sokhoeun pronounce like soakin’ in the sun, as my husband would explain it, or just simply Soken. I’m glad you’re here. The Modest Koala is a lifestyle blog that centers around tips and ideas on accentuating your natural beauty, achieving personal development and wellness. My hope is to inspire and motivate you to be happy and live well.
I feel like I am a jack of all trades (just kidding… only some trades ;)). Â
In all honesty, I love to learn and teach myself new things. I believe in life-long learning, whether it be teaching yourself or learning from others, then turning that around and teaching others what you have learned. It’s actually the best way to learn. That’s why I’m a teacher (full-time).
I enjoy researching new beauty trends, reading self-help and personal development books, working on my financial freedom, weight lifting, with an emphasis on strengthening and conditioning.
I love sharing things that I’m passionate about and gathering inspiration from others.
Hmmm… now why Koalas?
Just like the koalas, this site embodies mindfulness, physical well-being, and enjoying the moment.
We live in a world of busy lives and hectic surroundings; the Koala asks that you find your quiet oasis and unwind, live well, and find your calm.
So, if you came for inspiration, motivation, and how-to guides, then I’m your girl. Come along, enjoy the ride, and be a part of the tribe (I know, I know… Koala’s do not have tribes, lol – but we can pretend ;)).
Thanks for stopping by!
Xoxo Sokhoeun
