My Story

 

When my elder daughter was 11 years old and my younger one was just 7, I was running a fashion business that required constant communication with China and various states in Australia. I was always busy—working late nights, juggling calls, and trying to manage everything. Even when I was physically home, my mind was always somewhere else—thinking about work, solving problems, and answering phone calls.

I thought I was doing what I had to for my family—working hard to provide for them. But in reality, I wasn’t truly present with my daughters. I was there, but not really there.

 

My Moment of Realization

One evening, as I rushed around the house, caught up in work thoughts, my elder daughter came up to me. She looked at me with her big, innocent eyes and said, ‘Mummy, can you smile, please? I haven’t seen you smile in a long time.’

Her words stopped me in my tracks. It was like a mirror reflecting back what I’d become—a mum so consumed by responsibilities that I’d forgotten how to smile, how to be present, how to just be with my daughters.

 

My Transformation

That moment changed everything for me. I realized that no amount of success in my business would matter if I wasn’t there for my children emotionally. I started to reflect on what truly mattered—creating a happy, loving environment where my daughters felt seen, heard, and cherished.

I made a commitment to myself to be more present, to smile more, and to build a stronger bond with my children. And over time, I learned that being a happy, balanced mum isn’t just about time—it’s about the quality of that time and the emotional connection you create.

 

How This Inspired Happy Mum Happy Child

That’s why I created Happy Mum Happy Child. Because I know there are so many mums out there who feel the way I did—pulled in a million directions, overwhelmed by responsibilities, and struggling to find balance. I want to help mums reclaim their joy, reconnect with their children, and create the kind of home where everyone feels loved and supported.

 

Empowering Asian Mums to Bridge Worlds &

Raise Thriving Families


Honouring the Past, Nurturing the Future.

 

As an Asian mum, you pour your heart into your family, building a legacy of love and strength. You're a bridge between tradition and modern life, guiding your children to thrive in both worlds. But the journey isn't always easy. Balancing cultural heritage with contemporary parenting, nurturing strong family bonds, and prioritizing your own well-being can feel like a delicate dance.

I understand.

My name is Vicki Wu, and I'm here to guide you on this extraordinary journey. As a Chinese mother raising children in Australia, I've navigated those same complexities. From the vibrant streets of Shunde China to building thriving businesses and overcoming personal challenges like a financial crisis and divorce, I've emerged stronger and more determined to empower mums like you.

My Story, Your Inspiration

 
When life felt like it was falling apart, I discovered my true calling: to help Asian mums create lives filled with joy, balance, and deep connection.
 
My mother's unwavering belief in me – "Nothing couldn't be solved" – echoed in my heart, and with the support of
loved ones, I rediscovered my strength. I learned to embrace self-
care, set healthy boundaries, and communicate with authenticity and compassion. These lessons transformed my life, allowing me to build a loving relationship with my partner and guide my daughters with understanding.
 
Now, I'm passionate about sharing these tools with you so that you can experience the same profound transformation.

One of my clients, Linda, was trapped in a cycle of criticism with her daughter. Their relationship was strained, filled with misunderstandings and hurt feelings. Through our coaching sessions, Eva discovered the power of empathy and patient communication. She learned to truly see her daughter, understand her needs, and connect with her on a deeper level. Today, their relationship has blossomed into one of mutual respect, love, and understanding.

My Approach

In our coaching sessions, I weave together mindful parenting strategies, cultural reconnection practices, and an emotional healing framework to help you:

  • Be fully present with your children while honouring your heritage.
  • Rebuild trust and foster deeper connections within your family.
  • Communicate with clarity, empathy, and understanding.
  • Cultivate self-compassion and resilience to navigate life's challenges.

Why I Do This

Having personally experienced the challenges of adapting to a new culture while raising my children, I understand your journey intimately. That's why I created Happy Mum, Happy Child – to provide a haven of support, guidance, and community for Asian mums like you.
