About me
Hi, I’m Rena — born and raised in Shanghai, now living in Winnipeg, Canada with my family.
Before moving abroad, I worked in China as a Sexual-education Senior Lecturer, Sexual-psychology Counselor,Sexual-psychology Therapist and Family relationship counselor, also I am a certified P.E.T. (Parent Effectiveness Training) instructor.
My work focused on strengthening emotional connection between parent-child and intimate relationships —— helping families build closer, more compassionate relationships.
Now, I write mostly in Chinese — reflecting on life across cultures, parenting, marriage, faith, and the quiet beauty of ordinary days. In time, I hope to share more of my thoughts in English as well.
Thanks for being here. Feel free to leave a message — I’d love to hear from you.
Savoring the slow & simple life
in Winnipeg
Life moves slowly here, giving space for reflection, creativity, and connection. The seasons are bold, the sunsets generous, and the community quietly kind.
A few things I’m great at
Writing with heart,
consistency, and depth.
From everyday life to cross-cultural reflections, I write to record, express, and connect — always quietly exploring the enduring power of language. Writing is my gentle dialogue with the world, and also the way I re-root myself in a new and unfamiliar environment.
Sexual-psychology
relationship counseling.
I’m devoted to walking alongside those I work with, helping them recognize their inner needs and rebuild connection and boundaries through understanding. Across cultures, the healing and growth of intimate relationships has always been a calling close to my heart.
Teaching communication skills rooted in empathy.
Whether it’s between parents and children or partners, I love sharing tools that help people move closer, break through misunderstandings, and rebuild trust. These principles also helped me navigate and grow through both cross-cultural life and my own journey of faith.
