Meet Cecilia Lau
CEO | Co-Founder|Holistic Wellness Pioneer | Educator | Culinary Health Advocate

Cecilia Lau is a visionary in holistic wellness, with over 30 years of experience in health consultancy, therapeutic nutrition, education, and community empowerment. Her core belief is simple yet powerful: food is more than nourishment—it is a catalyst for awakening, healing, and transformation.

Cecilia began her journey in broadcasting with Rediffusion in 1987, using voice and story to connect with audiences. Between 1986 and 2010, she worked as a professional holistic therapist, earning prestigious certifications, including the UK Cidesco Professional Physiotherapist Certification and a Diploma in Health Consultancy (UK ITEC).

In 2015, she founded Will Be Culture, a life-learning centre dedicated to integrative wellness. In 2022, she launched Chubby Chubby, a clean-eating restaurant concept focused on allergen-aware, joyful, and accessible meals.
Today, Cecilia is a highly sought-after speaker and educator in nutrition and detoxification. She’s best known for her signature philosophy, “Awakening on the Dining Table”—a transformative approach that reconnects individuals with food as a source of clarity, vitality, and conscious living.

Through her expertise in wellness education, therapeutic menu design, and public speaking, Cecilia continues to make a meaningful impact across Singapore and beyond. With heartfelt purpose and deep commitment, she is reshaping how we eat, think, and live—one plate at a time.
