About the Founder

Meena Cheng is an entrepreneur, immigrant, financial advisor, and author.

For thirty years, as founder of Impact Financial, she has helped people plan the financial dimension of the second half of life. Five Most Splendid Years™ is about the other dimension.

Her own began at 5 a.m. on a winter morning, half awake in front of the television, when a voice from 9,000 miles away sang in a language she had left behind fifty years earlier. She said yes before she understood what she was agreeing to.

A year later, that yes had become a book — Inspiration from 9,000 Miles Away, publishing in September 2026, with 100% author royalties going to children's literacy programs.

It also became the beginning of a splendid chapter.
