My Story
Mental Health & Wellbeing Specialist | Mindfulness Educator
Founder | Attorney | Mother of 3 Children
Hello! I'm Heide, founder of LuminaMinds, attorney, mental health specialist, and mother of three. With multicultural roots in Hong Kong and experience living across Canada, the USA, and the UK, I bring a global perspective to family wellbeing.
As a lawyer and full-time parent, I intimately understand the challenges of balancing professional demands with family life in Hong Kong's fast-paced environment. My personal struggle with parental burnout, "mom guilt," and breaking generational patterns led me to transform my approach to family life through evidence-based practices.
This journey inspired LuminaMinds, where we empower professional individuals, families and educators through mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and positive psychology. Our mission is to provide practical tools and compassionate guidance for lasting positive change.
With over a decade of experience in mindfulness and leadership development, I blend my legal career with extensive training in mental wellness. My unique combination of professional experience—over ten years practicing environmental and commercial law—and specialized mental health and well-being training allows me to deliver practical resilience tools for professionals, parents, educators, and children.
At LuminaMinds, we support individuals and families through evidence-based techniques tailored to your needs, whether you are seeking better work-life balance, improved family dynamics, or tools to help your children thrive.
