The Power Of Friendship
Her World Malaysia|September 2019

The Power Of Friendship

Widely known as an actor, TV personality, and entrepreneur, she even took over the fashion runway recently. Despite having a packed schedule, Sazzy is now also a certified fitness instructor. The way she manages her time to ensure she maintains a healthy work-life balance makes her a role model for all women.

ON COMMUNICATION IN RELATIONSHIPS

"In a friendship, like any partnership, there’s bound to be something that you’d disagree on, but what’s unique in Celepets is that if there’s something that we’re not happy about, we address it straight away, without hesitation. Communication is key, we talk to each other rather than just being emotional about it on our own. I think we are all rational, and we are always ready to approach the problem if there’s any.

Let’s be frank, this is not just useful in friendships, we need to practise this in every relationship. Even with my husband, we talk it out. One tip on having healthy communication: Whenever you are filled with emotions, calm down before you talk to people. When we are less emotional, I believe we are all rational enough to carry out a conversation."

ON OFFERING A HELPING HAND

"One thing I’m always down to do with the Celepets girls is definitely our Malam Amal where we would gather and do our best in helping the underprivileged. I think we created this reputation so we get more sponsors; they are happy to join forces. For the past few years, we have been working closely with a group of single mothers who are living in poverty, so this year with the involvement of more parties, we decided to do more than just raise funds.
