Autumn's gentle embrace brings both warmth and wistfulness, a duality that mirrors the journey through age and identity. As the leaves change, so too does our perspective on self-image and creativity. Join me as I share my personal reflections on maintaining authenticity while confronting societal norms. From reconsidering bold hair colors of my younger days to finding solace in knitting and spinning, discover how embracing change is an art in itself. The cozy melancholy of the season isn't just a backdrop; it's a catalyst for reevaluating how we express our true selves and connect with others who share our vision.

Ever thought of taking fashion into your own hands, literally? With Caroline's expert guidance, I ventured into the exhilarating world of sewing to craft my ski wear collection. This isn’t just about making clothes; it's a rebellion against fashion industry norms. Picture ski pants with striking pink accents, crafted from repurposed treasures like a yellow raincoat, and plans for a jacket that speaks volumes in leopard-butterfly print. It's a celebration of sustainability and personal empowerment, proving that the joy of creation is often found in the details of what we make for ourselves.

Our podcast community thrives on support and shared journeys. This space is dedicated to those who find their passions in entrepreneurship and creativity, transforming necessities into genuine desires. By joining us, even for a short while, you contribute to a network that champions authenticity and mutual support. It’s challenging to ask for help, but community contributions are the lifeblood of our podcast’s growth and sustainability. We invite you to be a part of this vibrant community, where your insights and support fuel a collective journey towards creativity and conscious growth.

 You know me as a guide, mentor and teacher, but I've also set off on a new adventure, coaching. Coaching gets a bad rep sometimes, but when it's done right, it can be really transformational. As part of my coaching education, I'll soon need to do real coaching sessions. And it could be a really great opportunity for you to experience it at no or low cost. If you've ever been curious about working with me in this way, now's the time. Just send me an email: [email protected]
