My name is Candee Teng, and my journey to mental wellness has been a turbulent yet transformative one. Clinically diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses—including Bipolar Disorder, DID, an Eating Disorder, PTSD, and Clinical Depression—I was in a dark place. Suicidal thoughts plagued me, and I saw no hope for my life. In 2017, I hit rock bottom, with my relationships and family life crumbling around me. As a single mother, I felt like a failure, a hopeless case. My mental illnesses defined me, leaving me uncertain of what I wanted or who I was. In November 2017, everything changed when I encountered life coaching through D' Cup Coffee Republic. I became a certified life coach in February 2018 with Life Coach Philippines, and began partnering with Master Coach A. Through various mental health programs and serving others suffering from similar mental challenges, I realized that my mental illness is not my identity. I learned that even with mental challenges, there is hope, and I could live a beautiful life filled with significance. It was simply a matter of choice. I choose to continually invest in my mental fitness, embracing the healing process no matter how painful, knowing that it’s through facing my pain that my wounds can mend, allowing me to grow. In choosing to embrace my brokenness, I encountered God’s healing power and grace. In 2023, I reached a significant milestone, leaving my psychiatrist's office with a history mark, signaling healing from my mental illnesses. Now, my journey continues toward advocating for mental fitness, being a voice for fellow sufferers, urging them to rise up, and knowing that healing is possible. Today, I am a full-time Professional Certified CACC Life and Mental Health Coach from Life Coach Philippines. I am a Neurodivergent Life and Mental Health Coach who helps clients transform overwhelm to clarity, heal from emotional pain, and manage their mental conditions through creative expression. I invite you to join me on this journey toward mental fitness and fulfillment. Together, we can make progress, healing and growing to live meaningful, significant lives. Let's work together to support and uplift each other, creating a positive impact for ourselves and many others along the way. The journey to mental wellness and meaningful living is one we can embark on together, and I look forward to sharing this path with you. Checkout my website:
