About Me

Who I am

I am a temple boy, ex-monk, speaker and author
My name is Chhunny. I have years of experience in leadership, group dynamics, public speaking and training. I humbly provide a relevant and interactive learning forum where participants feel both comfortable to share, yet challenged to question their existing assumptions. I help participants incorporate personal wellness and balance into their everyday.

I led Vipassana retreats and mindfulness sessions at International Meditation Center, Chiang Mai, for years, then travelled around South Asia to share the Buddha’s teaching on human development. I was the co-founder of Smallworld Cambodia, and a Co-Director of Possibilities World, a training company delivering Leadership Development and Management solutions.

Currently, I am executive director of Grassroots Entrepreneur Club, a lead trainer at Impact Hub Phnom Penh, and co-author of national bestselling book on meditation: “សមាធិដើម្បីថាមពលជីវិត” (Meditation for the Energy of Life.)
