G.E.M. She Sings, She Inspires!
Give me a G! Give me a E! Give me a M! Give me G.E.M! Get Everybody Moving!!
I must share something amazing from last night. I went to GEM’s concert, it was TOTALY WORTH IT!!!
I’ve been following her since 2009 when she released A.I.N.Y. (爱你). Her music has been part of my life for years, and in a way, I feel like we grew up together.
I fell even deeper into her when she shaved her head in 2012. The boldness and fearlessness she showed made the rebellious side of me boil with excitement.
2012, when she shaved her head.
At the concert, GEM shared something emotional but so powerful.
She said that, growing up, she always wanted to be the best—to be number one. But constantly chasing that number 1 made her anxious, made her lose herself. It took away her true happiness. Now, she’s not regret with it but learned to be grateful for what she has because, in the end, nothing material goes with you when you die.
And I felt that in my bones.
Growing up, I was that top student. Skipped from grade 3 to grade 5, straight As, always feeling the pressure to stay at the top.
And just like her, I got caught in that endless cycle—seeking affirmation, proving myself, chasing the next milestone.
But in my 30s, my mindset shifted. Seeing people around me pass away in their 40s, hearing people around me, about cancer diagnoses in their 30s—it made me ask myself:
👉 Does all of this really matter?
👉 If we could die in the next 5 minutes, why are we holding back?
👉 Scared of failure? Worried we’ll be a joke to everyone?
Seriously, who actually cares? Yeah, they might laugh now, but at the end of the day, you’re the one living your life, not them.
GEM as a Business Role Model
So why am I talking about GEM?
Because her journey isn’t just about music—it’s about reinvention, brand-building, and creating a career on her own terms.
She didn’t just stay a performer. She fought for creative control, built multiple income streams, and turned her personal brand into a business empire.
If you take some time to listen to her songs, you’ll get it just like I did. It’s all in her lyrics.
If you’ve followed her career, you’ll know about her struggles with the haters and her ex-employer (if not, go look it up).
Her story proves something important:
Success isn’t about sticking to one thing. It’s about evolving.
The Secret to Building Multiple Income Streams
GEM figured this out. And if we want to create something that lasts—we need to figure it out too.
The famous Robert Kiyosaki’s Cashflow Quadrant explains it best:
1️⃣ Employee (E) – You work for someone else.
2️⃣ Self-Employed (S) – You work for yourself, but you're still trading time for money.
3️⃣ Business Owner (B) – You own a system where others work for you.
4️⃣ Investor (I) – Your money works for you.
Most people stay stuck in the first 2. But if we want freedom, we need to start thinking like a business owner and an investor.
Well, I’m not her or Robert Kiyosaki, with the wealth or societal approval of success. But that’s exactly what I’m doing and figuring out.
Connecting It Back to Moonscape & Sweee
GEM isn’t just a performer. She’s a brand. A business. A movement.
And that’s what I’m doing too.
Moonscape isn’t just another design studio. It’s a launchpad for ideas, strategy, and innovation. And Sweee is not just a financial tool—it’s a purpose-driven product that aligns finance with sustainability.
Both work together, reinforcing each other, just like GEM’s music and her brand.
3 Key Takeaways from GEM’s Success (That I’m Applying to My Own Journey):
⭐ There’s more than one way to make money. Don’t get stuck in just one thing—diversify.
⭐ We are the main character in our story. Stop letting others dictate our path. Take control.
⭐ Build our brand. Whether it’s through design, tech, or business—own our narrative.
What’s stopping you from building your own path?
Let’s stop limiting ourselves. Let’s take action. Let’s build something amazing!
And… the concert gonna be one of my biggest win of the year.
Give me a G! Give me a E! Give me a M! Give me G.E.M! Hahaha.
Omg, she's so amazinggggggg!!!!
Gonna go back watching all the videos from last night!
Stay tuned for more updates!
