Nat Ho: From Business Bustin’ to Mindful Living
Everyone knows that when a big dream turns into a big mess, the first reaction is usually a mix of regret and despair. But 37‑year‑old Singaporean star Nat Ho just brushed off that narrative on 96.3 Hao FM on September 14.
Expanding Horizons…and then Fading
Back in 2013, Nat decided to take Singapore out of the circle and go straight to Taiwan. He inked a hefty nine‑year contract with Veloce Group, hoping for a glittering overseas career. Unfortunately, the agency hit a few snags and he only managed to drop one album before heading back home.
The Tanglin Chapter
After returning, Nat spent three years locking eyes with the long‑form Channel 5 drama Tanglin. Once that was wrapped up, he didn’t sit still—he charted a route to the US for some academic self‑upgrade.
When Dreams Turn Into F&B Follies
During his studies, he didn’t waste time. He launched a handful of food‑and‑beverage ventures: a humble bento stall, ta‑king a franchise spot with Taiwan bubble‑tea brand Bobii Frutii, and finally a Thai cheese‑toast spot called Say Chiizu.
- Result: the stalls didn’t hit the sweet spot.
- Consequences: Nat lost the money that came from his Tanglin paycheck.
Learning Curves, No Regrets
Even though the investments went belly‑first, Nat says he has zero regrets. “I learned a ton—especially about how to run a business and how to keep it classy,” he beams.
He even posted an Instagram throwback of that phase, reminding us all that streets and commerce are never the same.
Leaving the F&B Scene Behind
He’s clear: he won’t return to the food world. “It’s a hectic, high‑pressure gig. I’ve had a few health scares that made me rethink the whole game.”
Health Woes on the Cash Register
Picture this: Nat at the register, counting dollars, when suddenly a searing pain in his neck and back shoots up—like a fiery blow. He can’t even explain how he made it home that day. The next morning, he’s drenched in a cold sweat, bed‑bound, and nudges his brother for a rescue mission.
He tackled the issue with acupuncture, only for a doctor to reveal that the culprit was the crushing weight of overwork and stress.
The Takeaway
In a nutshell, Nat Ho’s journey is a potent reminder: not everything that glitters is gold, and success isn’t a straight line but a series of learning curves. Embrace the setbacks—and remember, sometimes, the biggest lesson comes from the most unlikely places.
