I had the pleasure of interviewing Ms. Lan Hee Hong, successful Cake Designer of her company in Hong Kong, Flour . From running design workshops to celebrity clienteles such as Harry Winston, she shares what success means and how she flourishes and keeps Pilates as her fitness secret.

Before becoming a Cake Master, Lanhee was a International Primary School Teacher in Hong Kong for 20 years. A new chapter began when she decided to work for herself and pursue her passion for designing cakes. Fast forward a year later and this busy mom of two young boys runs a successful baking business and finds time to fit 3 workouts a week in the mornings. She defines success as being able to do what she loves with passion and determination. She is happy and grateful to spend quality time with her family on days off. It is about helping and inspiring young children to develop their self confidence and self esteem to achieve their own goals. It is also about earning the amount of money you had longed for with a great team that supports and believes in what she does.

'When I incorporated Pilates into my weekly schedule, it was a break away from my work, to get me into a different mode of thinking. The Pilates workout was always intense, i.e. teasers but doing it together with a small group of friends made it more fun. I always felt better after my workout, physically, mentally, and emotionally."

Pursue your passion. Feed your mind and body. Find your tribe.
