Life Designer with Jingyu Chen
Capturing once in a lifetime moment and each encounter is one of a kind and unique. Life designer is looking to genuine and meaningful human connection, and telling candid human stories. In each episode, I will interview an amazing talent coming from all around the world across all different industries. They are artists, creatives, professionals, entrepreneurs, slash everything, and they are all on their journey to pursue their mission with a passion. It's their story-telling about how they become their own life designers! Please feel free to visit my website to find more information: https://www.lifedesignerwithjingyuchen.com/
I am also running my solo podcast ‘Jing Lens’ -- my lifestyle diary . Here I share daily hustle and grind, small joys from my travel and hobbies, exercise routine, self-care practice, and reflection on my personal growth, etc., I consider Jing Lens as my dynamic diary to document and capture evolving and ( hopefully elevating) journey of my lifestyle. Lifestyle is a bit overkill buzzword today but I have always been drawn to this word, spending years and years searching and building my lifestyle. I guess I finally reach this self-validation point to feel may be able to to share some mindset and practice from an ordinary person’s life to provide one possible form of wholesome and joyful living.
Both podcasts are located in my website. My website is like my container where I put my heart and soul to curate . Please feel free to visit my website to check in both podcasts if you are interested. Thank you so much for listening to my podcasts!

My Book Is Live – Life Designer with Jingyu Chen: A Journey Towards Discipline, Mastery, Radiance
Today is a very special episode. I’m so thrilled to finally announce that my book — Life Designer with Jingyu Chen: A Journey Towards Discipline, Mastery, Radiance — is now live on Amazon!
First, you should know: writing this book was never part of a grand plan.
It all began with a single phrase — “The Year (2025) of Refinement” — fleeting through my mind. I seized that seemingly random thought and nurtured it into something much more solid, concrete, and expansive than I had ever imagined.
That’s kind of my pattern now, right? lol — whenever an idea sparks, I act.
Back then, the word refinement was just a vague and ambiguous notion. But still, I felt compelled to write something. Over time, it grew — in both scope and volume — expanding far beyond what I had initially envisioned.
By now, I’ve established a winning streak — turning small sparks into fireworks.Every fragmented thought, every seemingly trivial impulse, has evolved into a thread — a story woven into the tapestry of a life I’ve designed for myself.
And now, with this book finally out in the world, I feel like I’ve come full circle — five years into my creative journey, and half a year into this intense writing process. Apart from writing this book, once again, I’ve also been wearing all different hats — slash editor, designer, publisher — all at once, lol.
Let me also take this chance to thank all of you who’ve listened to this podcast.
This has been such a proud journey we’ve built together.
Some of you have been here since day one, and I’m immensely grateful for that. I truly acknowledge the emotional weight and gravitas of each time you tune in — in this day and age, time, energy, and attention are the greatest assets.
And the fact that you invest your greatest asset in my craft — words can’t even remotely express my gratitude and appreciation.
I know I sound like a broken record, but I really do pour my heart and soul into every episode — and every project. This book is no exception. My writing itself — for sure, that’s up to your verdict. But what lies beneath each word — the sentiment, the mindset, the approach — must emanate from an authentic place and be validated by lived experienceAfter five years of relentless pursuit, I can say this with conviction: I can only stay true to myself!
That’s how I worked up the courage and found my strongest why for sharing this book with the world. I self-censor. I scrutinise every word, every idea that composes my storytelling. It’s my authentic and transformative journey toward discipline, mastery, and radiance. I took one last, long look in the mirror before releasing this book — and I’m proud of who I am today: grounded, abundant, content. I genuinely enjoy my not-so-perfect, yet self-designed life.
I also hope the book brings a hint of meaningful and uplifting light to your life.
Here’s a quick glimpse inside the book:
• Unlocking the power of habit stacking to build new habits and elevate self-discipline
• Tapping into the brain’s rewiring potential to break old patterns and progress toward mastery
• Navigating emotional regulation by building emotional anchors, identifying triggers, and applying your own toolkit and rules
• Connecting to life’s tasks by developing self-awareness across three essential layers: our relationship with ourselves, others, and the environment
• Drawing a parallel between interior design and life design — a journey toward beauty, harmony, and radiance.
If you’re interested, the book is now available on Amazon https://mybook.to/lifedesigner (available worldwide)
