The Discovering Women Blog is Up and Running!

Hi everyone, welcome to the Discovering Women blog!

This is a blog that shares my thoughts and experiences in the social arts as I meet various women in my life.

My motivation for this enterprise is neatly summed up in this short narrative:


Once upon a time, there was a boy who loved a girl very much. He wrote to her once a week and hung on her every word. He always remembered her birthday, her likes and dislikes, and spent his free time thinking of ways to make her happy. She was a very pretty girl, and he liked her smile very much.


And once upon a time, there was a very smiley, pretty girl.

One day, after years of spending time together, the boy summoned his courage and asked her to be his girlfriend. It felt very awkward, and he didn’t really know how to go about doing this.

The smiley, pretty girl declined. She wanted to be “just friends”. The boy wanted to kiss her, but she pushed him away. It was his first taste of unrequited love, and it crushed him. From that day, he set out on a journey to understand women and discover how to make them fall in love with him.


I am that boy, and my fascination with the social arts began when I picked up a copy "The Game" by Neil Strauss many years ago. But reading and trial-and-error only got me so far. To get better, I needed a mentor.

I came to Dr David Tian and joined the Aura Academy Program because I believed that he could help me. He was offering a 12 month program and 1-1 coaching on a weekly basis that was unheard of at the time. Most coaches are offering a weekend bootcamp, a measly 2 day workshop that promises many changes but often falls short on delivery. David was offering a year of his time to teach me.

At this time, I am part of the Ambassador level program, and there are many amazing things that I have learnt that I want to share with you. So keep checking back in the future!
