As someone working as a content creator and marketing professional, Maxine used to draw inspiration from the journeys of others. Now, after her cancer diagnosis and post-surgery recovery, she’s inspiring us with her own rediscovery of self-love and confidence.
Hi Maxine! Let’s start by getting to know more about you. Can you tell us about yourself?
I’m Maxine Ching or Riri Ching. I’m a host and content creator, and I work in marketing as well. I’m a travel buff so you’ll also mostly find me at the beach.
You’ve shown such incredible strength and resilience in your journey. Can you share what that experience has been like for you?
When I talk about bouncing back, I always feel inspired by other people, but in 2022, I went on my own journey when I got two analyses on my ovaries and was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. It brought me a lot of insecurities with coping with my skin and with the changes in my body. And I think working in the beauty industry, it also brought me a lot of insecurities.
But then I became more resilient and learned to accept my body even more and the changes that came along with it. I think I've been more appreciative of the process of caring for myself and discovering the things that lie beyond insecurities.
How has your perspective on self-care changed as a result of that experience?
One thing that's always within me since the very beginning is taking time to relax and care for my skin. Self-care is always important because I feel like when you feel good about yourself you also look good.
When did you start your Remedy journey and how has it been so far?
I started my Remedy journey last March and I’ve been hearing quite a number of good things about it before even coming. So I came in and told them about my concerns, which was primarily my surgical scar—how I wanted it removed and how I was quite insecure about it.
The first two sessions were just wonderful ‘cause I saw big results and that’s what made me continue to support Remedy more. It was really amazing because along with the scars [that the cancer experience] brought me, it’s also made me realize how it will always be a part of me. In a way, the [Remedy experience] has also made me confident to be in my own body and as a beach girl who is always around in a bikini, it made me feel less insecure.
While you continue on your own journey of skin and self-care, what are your hopes and goals for the future?
My goal is to continue feeling good about myself and Remedy has brought that to me. It’s made me feel good inside and out and taught me to just accept the whole process of learning to love myself more.
