(27) Perfectionism: what you didn't know about it
20 years ago, when I applied for my first job I have answered the question "What are your weaknesses?" with "Perfectionism". This was considered to be "the right answer": perfectionism was seen a strength and a way to answer this (at the time) popular HR question on weaknesses with a twisted strength. 20 years later, I am asked by many women in my coaching session and workshops to help them overcome their perfectionism, that keeps them from living a thriving life.Is perfectionism a strength or a

As we have seen in episode 2, we don’t have the same type and the same quality of energy all the time. Our energy is cyclic and that’s a beautiful thing. Not being “consistent” is very natural.

Before we transition to the energy of the Wood Element, let’s look today into the 5th element, the Earth Element, that helps tr

The Feminine Way- Binja's Story
My client Binja talked several times about our work together on her Instagram page and she was asked “Binja, why did you need coaching?”.

Coaching is not for surviving, coaching is for thriving and Binja talks about the importance of having a coach as someone in your t

Creativity
Welcome to one of my favorite topics: creativity! When we think about creativity we tend to think about inventors, artists, writers that have changed our world and our cultures. But this is only one form of creativity that the psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi studied under the name of “cultural creativity”. There is also “personal creativity”, the creative energy that we can all cultivate in our lives. In this episode I want to help you develop your own creativity and I have some beautiful t

Your Energetic Cycle
There is a myth in our modern world that we need to have the same level and quality of energy consistently, if not all the time. We can see this translated in modern business, in workplaces, in our social and private lives. But this myth leads to negative self-talk, disconnection from ourselves, disempowerment and ultimately,... it can be harmful.In this episode, I invite you to consider a different perspective: your energy is cyclic- just as nature is cyclic too.Listen to this episode toIdentif
