stop pretending, love

This month, I'll be telling you more about the Soulful Biz Club. If you don't want to hear about the coziest most genuine community of sensitive and supportive women online, click here. Hello love, Do you know what causes me immediate anxiety? Feeling trapped in a situation that asks me to perform a certain way, when I feel another way. In other words, when I sense that someone I care about wants me to be a certain way, or to think a certain way, and that's not the case but I'm too terrified...

🌸 feeling stuck? read this

Hello love, Want to know what I do when I find myself a bit down, discouraged or unmotivated? I think of you. I shift my focus from me, from my fears, my numbers, my messy thoughts, to the people I want to help. And everything softens. The pressure eases. The spark comes back. In reality, every entrepreneur, no matter how grounded or experienced, has days when nothing seems to move. When the doubts are louder than the wisdom. But that feeling doesn’t mean you’re broken. It also doesn’t mean...

just tell me what to do and I'll do it

Hello love, "Just tell me what to do and I'll do it." I've said this to partners, therapists, coaches... Prompted Google, my Human Design chart, and more recently ChatGPT. Always looking for answers, for reassurance, for a roadmap on how to make my dreams come true. It's human to crave a blueprint, especially when we're walking in unknown territory. We want safety. We want someone to hand us a map, point to the path, and say, "follow this, it works." Sometimes, it helps. A good framework...

who's an introvert here, raise your hand!

Hello love, I’m a big introvert. I love people, but I strongly dislike small talk. I love celebrations, but I avoid parties that involve more than three people. And I feel deeply unsettled when we have family over for a few days. Which means that working online, from my cosy desk, has always felt like the perfect setup for me. No interruptions by noisy colleagues. No chit-chatting that leads nowhere... Just quiet focus, tea by my side, and the satisfaction of creating something meaningful....

when everything feels urgent

Hello love, “ Everything feels urgent. Stomach is tight and buzzing. Migraine on the horizon. Body wants to rest but head is saying we should, we must... people are waiting for me, emails must be written, content published, clients happy, money needs to be made... Sometimes everything is urgent but the only thing that's truly urgent is you. Nurturing you. Taking care of you. Not of another project, not of another person. Of You. And maybe listening to that is the true wisdom. Power and light,...

maybe this quarter isn’t about more

Hello love, I find it fascinating how the (adhd) mind tends to overestimate what we're capable of doing in a short amount of time, but under-estimate the potential of compound efforts & rhythms. So often, when I'm in planning mode, I become so completely disconnected from reality. From what's possible and realistic, but also from what my body craves, what this season is calling me for and that is different than last season. Because not all quarters are meant to be the same. We're not supposed...

find & follow what feels good

Hello love, We're stepping into autumn moods and spicy chai lattes, my absolute favourite season of the year. I know most emails you'll get this week will probably be around planning your last quarter of the year, launching, or preparing for consumption day black friday. This is not an email like that. Today, my invitation is to forget about all your plans for a moment, and focus on finding what feels good in the routines that you follow, in the foods & drinks that you choose, the movements...

there's power in your voice

Hello love, A tight feeling in my throat. Confusion in my eyes. Where to start? Do I even have anything valuable to say? Maybe I should just skip writing today. Self-doubt, I've learned, is a manifestation of your nervous system not having found grounding and safety. Before that, I believed that I was the problem. I thought that I wasn't confident enough, that I didn't believe in myself enough. I thought that if I made myself stronger, if I tried harder, organized better, or found the right...

I'm so grateful for my burnout

Hello love, I'm grateful for my burnout. I know it's a crazy thing to say, considering what a dark and difficult period it was for me. It was a season of my life in which I felt completely alone and inapt. As if what was required of me - living, taking care of my baby, homeschooling my older kid, making good money in my business - was just too much. And in many ways it was. Because I had never learned to take care of me first. I knew how to power through. I knew how to discard my needs to...

the permission you've been waiting for

Hello love, What would make you perfectly content now? That's the question my sister-in-law, who's visiting us with her kids, asked me last night. Without hesitation, I answered: Nothing. I already am. It struck me afterward how different my answer would have been 5 years ago. Back then, I would have had a list: more clients, a bigger audience, a sleeker website, recognition from industry leaders... There was always something external that I needed to happen first. And sure, my circumstances...
