Authenticity
for those who are tired of pretending they're "fine"
Coaching
You didn't build the wrong life but at some point, it stopped feeling like yours. This happens when you spend years learning how to work hard and very little time learning how to hear yourself.
Hi, I’m Betty Chan
Authenticity Life Coach. Facilitator. Speaker.
I work with professionals and entrepreneurs who want to close the gap between the life they’ve built and the life they actually want.
As a first-generation Asian American, I know what it’s like to build a version of success that looks right from the outside but costs too much on the inside. That experience, and what it took to find my way back, is the foundation of everything I do.

Complaints Guide
A self-guided video series designed to help you transform your biggest complaint into clearer information.
Feel at home in your life
Learn how to reconnect with your authenticity in a world that pushes you to hide who you are. In authenticity coaching, you’ll learn to feel at home in your own life by:
Making decisions that don’t shrink who you are
Speaking up for what matters to you
Choosing relationships that don’t ask you to earn your place
Changing how you measure your worth
Letting go of regrets and feeling proud of who you are becoming
Don’t wait – this doesn’t magically happen by ‘being yourself’.

"I can finally enjoy my success, not just survive it. For years, I built other people's companies from the shadows, pushing myself until I tapped out. Betty helped me change the patterns that keep me overworking and under-enjoying my life. If you want clarity that sticks, Betty's the one.

"Betty has such a grounding, yet expansive presence. She's empathetic, deeply thoughtful, and simultaneously no-nonsense (which is especially useful if you get stuck in overthinking loops). She has the knowledge, tools, and experience to hold space in exactly the way you need."

"In our 6 months together, Betty got me to see the big picture. I went from 'how can I do more' to really understanding what I wanted to accomplish and how I could get rid of the distractions that got in the way. I highly recommend her!"
