POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

10 years.

Part of me feels like this was an eternity ago, and another part of me wonders how time passed so quickly!

Limitless is 10 years old today!

I’m so thankful, that by God’s grace we have come so far, and for every person - friends, mentors, donors, partners, volunteers, board members, and colleagues - past and present who’ve given of yourself to this cause… this could not have been possible without you! 💙

I have to admit that it hasn’t been the easiest journey, and in the toughest moments when time seems to stop - I’ve questioned if giving up everything, and if giving everything to this cause has been worth it.

But it has.

Because I get to witness hope restored, worth reclaimed, and lost dreams rediscovered.

And I couldn’t ask for more.

Thank you everybody who has supported this journey of Limitless, to my team (past and present) who are the true heroes in this story, and a special thanks to my wife who’s stood by me in the difficult seasons and the precious moments.

Happy 10th Anniversary Limitless.

I’m looking forward to the next 10 💪🏼

Nine years ago, my wife and I, together with several youths and friends gathered in my living room. Where I shared about my desire to seek the dreams of other young people. Lost dreams, lost destinies, and lost potential – taken away by life’s circumstances and challenges.

That day on 9 Sept 2016, we started Limitless. I truly did not know what I was getting into, nor what God had planned out for the future ahead. But it truly has been a journey. It’s not been easy for sure – and I still tell the joke that “I’ve not had proper sleep for the past __ years” till this day.

But, I am truly grateful. That I get to witness the impact and lives changed by the work that we get to do. That I’ve gotten to walk journeys with some of the best people I’ve known, each unique and impactful in their own ways. That I’ve gotten to witness the landscape change, and society become more accepting of mental health challenges. But most of all, because I get to see hope live again, worth restored, and young people gather the courage to dream once more through the journeys that we walk with them.

Was it hard?
It still is.

Would my life be different if I hadn’t taken that step of faith?
For sure… maybe I’d actually understand what “me time” actually means.

But is it worth it?
100%

Because we get to do this.

Happy 9th birthday Limitless! I’m looking forward to the next 9 more 😁

(PS: I realise how bad I am with taking photos at milestones, if you ever celebrate one with me, pls remind me to take a picture!)

“My controversial belief is this – that it’s easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission. Now I don’t mean that people shouldn’t be accountable for their actions. But in the context that those with the ability should fill the needs of the vulnerable, sometimes we cannot wait for bureaucracy or even society to catch up before we act,” says Asher Low (@asherlow), founder and executive director of @we.are.limitless.

What happens to my mind without sleep? Did you know that getting just one more hour of sleep can help you lose weight, boost your immune system, and reduce stress?

It was a huge pleasure of mine to be a part of the first episode of AIA Voices – “Sleep Matters”, produced by @aia.group!

Hey everyone, 2021 has been a year where youth mental health issues were brought to our attention in really tragic ways. Even through history making incidents that we never hoped to see happen in our lifetimes. The truth is that it’s been a very challenging year for young people.

And at @we.are.limitless, we’ve seen a huge increase in youths seeking help. Here are some numbers

- 373. The number of youths who reached out to us last year

- 674. The number of youths who’ve reached out to us since the start of 2021

- 1 in 4. The number of youths who come to us with suicide ideation

- 378. The number of youths who have joined our Discord server for support or to show support for one another’s mental health

- 16320. The approximate number of projected man hours it’ll take to provide counselling for 680 youths

- 7. The number of trained mental health professionals on staff with Limitless

I’m inviting you to join me to Run For Hope. Not to just run another 5/10km race, but to do something real. Every participant, every dollar fundraised by runners will be going to making sure that we can keep up with the influx of young people seeking help. And help us continue to build hope, worth, and destiny in the lives of these young people

“Why are you always like this?”
“Why can’t you do something so simple? Why like that also scared to do?”
“See la, who asked you to ____?”
“See, you should have…”
“If I could [insert motivational story], why can’t you?”

These are things that trauma survivors have told me they’ve heard. And it hurts…

Trauma isn’t just about surviving abuse or sexual assault… It happens when an incident or series of incidents overwhelms your ability to cope – causing you to feel physically, mentally, or emotionally unsafe. A broken family, an overbearing parent, a loss of a loved one, witnessing violence, betrayal…

As someone who struggled with my own Adverse Childhood Experiences and traumas, I know how it can tear down self-esteem, demolish dreams, affect relationships, and paralyse potential. For me, it was a downward spiral - you want to act, you want to be better, but the deep-seated fears that you don’t understand get in the way. Instead, you respond with aggression, insecurity, anger, decisions that you’ll regret, and ultimately guilt - and self-hatred…

And over the years I’ve realized that while this may not be what I was taught was “normal behavior”, it was normal. A normal response to an abnormal situation…

Trauma is real, but it can be invisible, hidden behind the façade of avoidance, “I’m ok, really”, and sometimes even what we adults deem to be behavioural issues. And unfortunately, in trying to help, we often skip past wanting to help the trauma survivor heal – to wanting to make them act better, do better, behave better… and in rushing the process or approaching it carelessly, we can sometimes retraumatize, make them feel worse about themselves, or even make the trauma issues worse…

But we can do better than that.
@we.are.limitless and six other helping agencies have come together to form @safecircle.sg
And we’re here to help you – learn about trauma, learn how to help someone you know, and learn how to impact your sphere of influence. The workshops and talks that we’ve designed are free!
And it doesn’t matter if you’re a youth, a parent, a teacher, a social worker, counsellor, youth worker, or pastor, we have a program designed for you! - www.safecircle.sg by @asherlow
