The Hard Truth About Success from a Top Creator in Singapore (Aiken Chia)

Before Aiken Chia became one of Singapore’s most recognizable YouTubers and food content creators, he was a broke twenty-something who had spent years auditioning, collecting rejection after rejection, and was on the verge of quitting media altogether. It was that mix of setbacks, resilience, and the unwavering support of his community that shaped the creator he is today. From his breakout years through producing a popular series called Food King, to now building his own independent channel, Aiken has created a body of work that blends food and travel storytelling with raw, personal conversations - including one of his most talked-about videos, where he sat down with his mother to unpack her 18-year affair. In this episode, we revisit those early struggles, explore the turning points that gave him hope, and unpack the values that continue to guide his journey today.
