Welcome to Kefei's Newsletter, Being Bold! I'm thrilled to have you join me on this journey of exploration and reflection. Here you will find my weekly writings on personal growth, survival strategies, and the vibrant experiences of living in New York City and beyond.
Introducing Koffeemocha
Koffeemocha is more than just a domain name; it embodies the core motivation behind Kefei's Newsletter, Being Bold. This represents the blend of richness, complexity, and invigoration that I hope to provide through my weekly reflections. Just as a mocha combines the bold bitterness of coffee with the comforting sweetness of chocolate, my writing is intended to be a balanced mix of reality and idealism, grounded insights and aspirational thoughts.
As the founder and author of Koffeemocha, I focus on combining 30+ years of professional experience with reflective storytelling to share insights on career transitions, personal growth, and retirement. After retiring from a successful career in engineering and technology, I moved from Silicon Valley to New York City to explore new challenges and self-expression through writing, mentoring, and consulting.
At Koffeemocha, the mission is simple yet profound: to explore the intricacies of life through an engineering lens, guided by curiosity and reflection. Retirement is not a finish line; it's an evolving, dynamic journey that requires adaptability and purpose. Through Koffeemocha, I aim to capture not only the essence of the different stages of life, but also the adaptability that each new stage requires.
Writing in Koffeemocha is my way of sharing my journey through major life transitions, including retirement and moving across the country, while offering practical advice for others navigating similar paths. I cover key topics such as:
Redefine retirement as an opportunity for growth and new challenges.
Combine logic and creativity to solve life's big questions-purpose, fulfillment, and happiness.
Provide mentorship to young professionals and those in career transition, with a focus on building resilience, adaptability, and critical skills.
My goal is to inspire others to continue to grow, learn, and explore, no matter what stage of life or career they are in.
What to Expect
Through Kefei's Newsletter, Being Bold, I hope to provide you with a similar experience-an opportunity to pause, reflect, and gain a fresh perspective on life's journey. Each essay will offer you moments of personal engagement and contemplation that will stimulate your mind and soul.
